When I shot Jared & Inna’s wedding in August, we ran out of time to do the photos on the beach that we had been planning on.  So we set up a time to do a post-wedding session to make up for it.

Ironically, after they drove down to sunny Malibu from San Francisco, we got up that morning to find SoCal was socked in with fog.  But it proved to be a blessing in disguise: Rachel (my voice-activated lightstand) and I were rewarded with the best natural light diffuser you ever saw. I came home with a collection of photos that were very different than I expected, but still very, very cool.

And just as things were starting to get cold and dark, I decided to try one last idea… and wow.

Jared and Inna, thanks for being such an encouragement to Rachel and I. We loved getting to spend some time over dinner and The Newlywed Game with you, too, even when you had such a tight schedule. We’re so grateful for your friendship!
