This is a continuation of the post above. After prep, we cruised on over to the Fullerton Arboretum where we had fun playing around in the bamboo forest and the tall grass.
I love the smiles underneath the kiss in this picture.

This is a continuation of the post above. After spending some time at the Fullerton Arboretum for our couples session, we went over to the Orange Korean Church, also in Fullerton for the wedding ceremony. I’ve heard hundreds of wedding vows, but the ones I heard from Dave and Michelle were one of the most sincere and heartfelt that I have ever heard.
On a side note, the Orange Korean Church is a great place for a wedding. The lighting is great for photography and the people there are gracious, with photographer-friendly rules.
Wedding Ceremony Location: Faith Community Christian Reformed Church (Orange Korean Church) , 643 Malvern Ave, Fullerton, CA

On a beautiful spring day, we took Mondo and Zahari out to the Fullerton Arboretum for their engagement pictures. We’ve shot here a couple times before; and each time, we find new nooks and crannies with unique backdrops and creative framing opportunities. Mondo and Zahari were great and so much fun to be around. We kept pushing our stay at the Fullerton arboretum, with a few run-ins with the security and staff. But, as always, imagery came before any regulations; and we finished after a lot of great shots. And besides, (venue) rules were meant to be at least bent a little right? Despite the distractions, the natural couple was able to stay in the flow of things, showing their natural affection and giving us their candid expressions throughout the day.
After the shoot we grabbed a bite to eat and said goodbye until their wedding day (which we can’t wait for by the way)! We hope you enjoy the images; and congrats again!
In classic LJP fashion, we started the day with a nice portrait session. The Fullerton Arboretum has dozens of awesome, private spots for these types of shots.
The high dynamic range of the gorgeous landscape of the Fullerton Arboretum in the day time was perfect for a couple of HDR engagement photography shots. Zahari and Mondo were great at holding still, as we fired away a few consecutive shots.
After the Arboretum, we went out into the street of Fullerton for more creative shots, playing with the traffic as our foreground.

Tania and Reuben met each other at Ziings in Fullerton. So what better place to shoot their engagement session? We went all around downtown Fullerton, playing with the architecture in Villa Del Sol, the unique lighting in Ziings, and the great textures of the random buildings in the area. After a couple hours of getting to know this awesome couple, I can already tell that their wedding is going to be awesome, and I can’t wait to be a part of it.
The balconies of Villa Del Sol in Downtown Fullerton make a great stage for our couple.
Good thing Reuben got his pedicure that day (jk)
We found an awesome cave-like backdrop in front of a restaurant and decided to play with backlighting and silhouettes

This month, we had the chance Katy and Scott’s engagement session at the Fullerton Arboretum. Katy is actually one of our associate photographers, so I must admit that shooting her engagement photos did make me a bit nervous, as Katy has quite the photography eye herself. But, we all had a blast; and I think they will agree that the pictures turned out awesome!
Anyway, we found a lot of great locations and spots to shoot, and with Max’s help on lighting, we really pulled off some unique shots. So Katy and Scott, congratulations, enjoy the pictures and we are looking forward to shooting the wedding!
So we started the session with one of our usual LJP style portrait sessions to get Katy and Scott into the “photography” mood. Katy was quite cute in her discomfort of being on the other side of the lens for a change, but after a few minutes we all started getting into the groove.
Being a photographer herself, Katy made our job easier by coming up with poses for her and her hubby to do.
I definitely must say that the Fullerton Arboretum is one of our new favorite spots in the Orange County area for engagement photography. We also saw a wedding actually taking place in the arboretum courtyard. It looks like a great place for a wedding venue, so keep it in mind all you future brides! =)
After we finished up the portrait session, we headed into the Fullerton Arboretum to start looking for some cool artistic stuff to shoot.
We had some fun with the reflections at the Fullerton arboretum
Katy’s style resonates from head to toe.
Night time came quickly, which gave us the opportunity to play with the lighting and create some interesting images.
This is our favorite shot of the day at the Fullerton arboretum. We hope you like it too!
