I was so surprised to hear from my wife Rachelle, that she hired a professional photographer for our very first family portrait session. She said this was her Father’s Day gift to me. Which was one of the best gifts I have ever received as a Dad. We have been looking forward to this day, and for one of my favorite professional photographers to shoot our session is really AWESOME and exciting! He is none other than The [b]ecker, Orange County Wedding Photographer. I have been following him on twitter and facebook for quite sometime, and amongst other things, attended his annual [b] school party in WPPI, and I am also a Private School member of The [b]school, which is an online community of professional photographers. Becker is such an extraordinary giver in this industry, and he is more than happy to share his knowledge to other fellow photographers. Thank you especially to my beautiful wife, Rachelle, and to my beautiful kids, Jordan and Nathaniel!
Thank you so much [b]ecker!!

So awesome that [b]ecker did that for you!!! Isn’t he a blast to work with? He did our pictures last fall and I laughed so hard, my tummy ached. Your kiddos are adorable.

Hi Joel,
I heard all the pictures from the wedding is up. I was trying to get through your website but it was asking me for a password. How do I get this. I can’t wait to see all the pictures. Thanks.

I got my shoes first before my dress…I didnt order my dress till like the end of January, and I was looking for that “perfect” shoes even before Halloween and finally found one close to the Holidays =P

Hi Jessica!
Thank you for the comment. I can assure you there are WAY MORE images of Rachelle’s beautiful wedding gown, than her shoes. I just happen to include a few more of the shoes on my blog. When the final images are released on their private online gallery, you will see more images of her gown. =)

Why are there so many shoe pictures and not too many of the dress? Months searching for that perfect dress, hours for that perfect shoe…

Beautiful images, Joel! I love how the colors just pop.

Thank you so much Kenny! Are you from New York? If so I would LOVE to shoot in New York City. I love integrating architectural backgrounds into my shots.

I really love shooting everywhere in downtown LA. Reminds me of my hometown. =)

Nice work Joel…..
This was an absolute awesome couples session in Venice Beach. I dont know why the month of June is overstaying its welcome, now that it is July! Where is the sun? It was cloudy, chilly, and windy! But we made the most out of it and we had a blast! I took Jeni and her boyfriend, Brian just about everywhere in Venice Beach. We also took a long stride over to the Venice Canals, where I have always wanted to go. I have seen the canals on several movies, but I could not figure out where they were located exactly.
I would like to thank , Tristan Zafra for assisting me on this shoot!
They even brought their World of Warcraft T-shirts, proudly professing their love for this multi-player game. Now that is hard-core!

Great looking couple and it shows in these photos…you can actually see the genuine love in these images.
My 2nd time shooting an engagement session at the Los Angeles Union Station in the heart of Downtown Los Angeles. This place has become my INSTANT favorite place to shoot! Erick and Cecilia walked the “mile” with me and my wife, Rachelle, who assisted me. Please check out some of my favorites and please do not forget to leave me some blog love!
