Oakland Engagement Shoot Wedding Photography

Photography by Jerry

I loved Lindsay and Russell's idea of shooting at the California College of the Arts right in Oakland. It's four blocks from my studio, but I've never gone inside. I was actually thinking of taking some classes here, but you have to enroll into a full program. Just being there made me feel more artsy. I almost got Lindsay and Russell to shed their clothes to model for me. Well, not almost. We just laughed about it. Maybe my next couple.

Outtakes are inevitable when you're looking for a keeper.

My brain almost blew up after seeing this shot in camera. No photoshopping here.

Alexandra and Anthony are theater actors. So of course we had to get them on stage. I love stage lighting for engagement shoots. Sometimes I wish all weddings had stage lighting. Imagine how awesome wedding photos would be if you had stage lighting.
