Erika + Jim = VROOOOOM!!!

This was a little wierd for me. I shot Erika & Jim's engagment session last night. Why wierd? Erika is my assistant and we have shot probably 100 weddings together over the last few years. I'm so used to her behind the camera. It took me a few shots to see her as a client and not my assistant. She did really great and Jim loosened up a bit too. We wanted to try something a little different so Jim brought his motorcycle and we just cruised around Terminal Island in Long Beach. terminal Island is where all the ships come into the Port of Long Beach. It's very industrial and I was just waiting for the FBI or Homeland Security to swoopp in on us. I guess people cruising around the back alleys of the worlds busiest port with cameras is no big deal. Anyway, I think the shots turned out great and I'm looking forward to the wedding next month out in the winerys of Temecula. Check out some of my favorites.
