Sara and Mazen at Ojai Spa

Sara and Mazen were just a joy to work with!! They are so fun to be around, so considerate, so in love, and so, so, so fun to shoot!!

Michelle Buckley at Details Details introduced them to my work and we hit it off right from the start. They are genuinely good people and great fun to be around.

Now, that in itself makes for a great day of shooting, but if you couple that with one of the coolest places I have ever shot (Ojai Valley Inn and Spa), some the my favorite vendors, including Julie from Elysium Productions , and superb weather, you end up with a nearly perfect day!! OH, and the decor was super unique and rich in warm colors- always good. Michelle had cusions, rugs, cool fabrics from Lebanon (the Groom, Mazen's Mother brought them), even hookas were going on the patio.... and yes, there were some amazing belly dancers, too!

See below, for some of my favorites of the day:
