Dave + Megan are a dream.  Coolest couple ever. 

We had such a good time during the engagement session on the cliffs of Rancho Palos Verdes and I'm THRILLED to have met them.  I can't wait to spend more time with them on their wedding day in Lake Tahoe.  

But for now, enjoy a few engagement photos.

3 shoots in 2 days.  It was an awesome weekend.

I started things off Friday night shooting for ocRAMPS.com at their warehouse in Santa Ana.  The skating was insane and you're not going to believe the hammers these guys were throwing down.  And yes, he landed it.  Several times.

Friday night was super fun, but the couple I met Saturday morning in Rancho Palos Verdes for an engagement session really stole the show.  They are two of THE raddest people ever and I'm overwhelmed with excitement to shoot their wedding in North Lake Tahoe this summer.  Here's a sneak peek at my new friends Megan and Dave:

After I finished the eSession, it was off to Terranea Resort to shoot the corporate retreat of Knobbe Martens, the Kings of Intellectual Property Law and all other important things intangibly protectable.  It was an amazing indoor/outdoor production that was nothing short of top-notch.

Basically what I'm trying to say is.....it's going to be a good week on the blog.  Come back and visit.

Individually they are awesome.  Together they will blow your mind with radness.  They are dear friends of mine and I hope they make it back out West asap.

We had a great time hanging out with my camera in the streets of Laguna Beach.  The fashion Diva of Laguna, Krystal, was kind enough to come along and pour her awesome fashion punch all over us.  I was soaked.

Can't wait for the party in July.

Words cannot describe how rad these two are.  Brad's a financial guru at Merrill Lynch and will laugh at most any joke (including all of my bad one's).  Lacey is the diva behind Roxy and spends her days creating awesomeness in the form of clothing and accessories. 

If you've received financial advice or worn something from Roxy, chances are Brad and Lacey had a hand in it.  [insert bomb drop]  There, now you should have a vested interest in this blog post.

Huntington Beach is where they met and fell in love, so we decided to shoot their engagement photos here around the streets of Huntington.  Big thanks and shout out goes the Shauna from The Little Shop of Shavs for the uber generous balloon donation.

Brad proposed to Lacey right next to Tower 16, so we ended the session on the beach.  It was rad.  They are rad.  You are now rad for reading this.  Go tell your friends about your new-found radness or write it in your journal.

Meredith and i just looked at these and we are in LOVE with them. Brad and Lacey are the prettiest and happiest couple on the planet and these pictures just made me depressed that i dont look like lacey.

YOU ARE TALENTED MIKE.

Mike,
You have such great talent in photography! And just because you accurately described Lacey and Brad's level of 'radness', I am now a big fan of yours :) Lacey and I grew up together in the country and are great friends~ I am so glad you and (of course) her fiance Brad see in her what everyone else does, including me. ;-) You rock! Love these pics. My hubby even thinks they are cool and he is usually indifferent~ ha ha!
