Kayla & Kyler: Family Portraits

Kayla is Lindsay's college room mate and they are like two peas in a pod. Kayla's parents asked Lindsay to do their Christmas photos and here is what two cute siblings & a little bit of California sky after the rain look like!

Mcnamara/Moore Portrait Session

Amy gave this session as a gift to her parents, I may be biased, but I think family portraits are such a precious gift. Like I've said before, family & capturing that moment with everyone together is priceless. Here are some of our favorites from their session last year.

Sergio & Jessica - Family Portraits

Jessica asked me to come do their family portraits after I had done their engagement sangria party. She had all the family meet up in Costa Mesa for some group shots. It was a beautiful day & the resort there is absolutely stunning! Lindsay and I tag teamed - it's always so much better to have two pairs of eyes, plus it can be very efficient when you have a large group. Here are some of our favorites :)

James & Ashley

I enjoy a good love story, especially one that starts at In-N-Out! Can you really pair two better things in the world?? Well, throw in the beach and you've won my heart completely. Ashley and James met at In-N-Out when they both worked there, and it blossomed into James popping the big question. They got married a few months ago, and James' mom gave them this session as a going away present because they are now stationed in Wyoming. Wishing them the best as they start this new adventure as newlyweds!

Why Laurel Isle Photography?

Names are pretty important. In history, times of old, a name was given to determine a life. To declare a purpose.
Your name defined you.

When choosing the name for our new business venture, we wanted something that was not only not already taken, but spoke of who we are. How do you define two intense, driven, passionate, creative and completely different sisters? It is not an easy task. :)

Laurel (Lor-al) is the word that Lauren comes from. It means one who is victorious. The winners in ancient Greece were given a crown of Laurel leaves to wear upon their head.

Isle (Eye-ll) is part of the definition of Lindsay, which is Peaceful isle. I always envisioned a tropical beach, with a gentle palm sending shade down waves lapping gently at the shore. aaaaah....

And that is where our name comes from. A little piece of the two of us. Very different yet completely intertwined just as sisters were meant to be.

Albert & Noura

Albert & Noura's whirlwind romance culminated with a big party in Westwood a few weeks ago. It was a beautiful evening of culture, family and lots of twinkle in Albert's eye. There's nothing more stunning than a couple in love! :)

Here are a few photos from the event:
