Vanny & Eli, Los Angeles, CA

Vanny and Eli are our close friends and they were a breeze to work with. They are a very easy couple to shoot and work with. For the most part, we got them acting amongst themselves as that's why they were easy to work with. We had fun taking these picture as we hope they were comfortable taking them.

When going through the small store and shops at Olvera Street, we told them we were going to "hide" and snap away during their browsing. On occasion, we would call out their names to look at the camera as action shots. All in all, it worked out well. Congrats to them on their engagement and looking forward to their wedding in February!

Photographer Profiles

Tera Thamawatanakul

Hello, my name is Tera and my strong interest in photography began to develop while I was in college. During the time I had in between classes, I got a chance to see many things that some people wouldn't normally see. How the color of the fallen leaves would bring out the bright colors from the grass or how the layers of trees accents the campus benches. I wanted to capture what I was seeing and the only way to do that is with photography. Since then, I've been able to show what it is I see and always look at the bigger picture when framing portraits or scenes. I currently shoot with high end digital Canon equipment.


Dave Lai

Hello my name is Dave and I'm a Southern California based lifestyle, wedding, and special events photographer. I started my photographer's journey when I was 15 years old and my first camera was my dad’s old 1970’s style Canon SLR. Needless to say, I’ve been hooked ever since! Constantly learning and refining my shooting style, I’m always trying different techniques and looking for new and innovative ways to give my clients a little something special to enjoy. I enjoy shooting relaxed portraits, seascapes, and fine art. I’m a bit of a technology geek and I currently shoot with the latest Professional Canon Digital SLR gear.
