Oh groomsmen, you silly boys!
Kenny&Krista | A California Wedding
Wow! What a crazy two weeks it’s been! It started last sunday with preparation for a shortfilm/comercial for Mirabella Beauty, a local makeup company. After three 14+ hour days of shooting (video, which was so awesome but intimidating because it was the first video shoot I had ever done), tagging along on a fashion shoot with Garrett Markenson, and a full Friday of editing, I was wiped! But I had back to back weddings! The weddings were so much fun and I’m so excited to go through the photos. This week has been a lot of office work and editing. I just got back from an interview with S.A.S. Productions (a film, photo, talent ect. company in L.A.) and they are graciously bringing me on their crew starting next weekend as a studio photographer. I am so excited to start shooting with them, as well as make new friendships and learn new skills! Have a great Memorial weekend everyone- P

Freddy&Violet || A Burbank Wedding
As my first wedding of my 2012 summer wedding season, I am so stoked to be publishing this. Just a personal blurb, I just finished my first year of college and during this summer am going full force into photography mode! A lot of awesome new changes are going to be happening, and some already have! I launched prestonrichardson.com a few weeks ago and am daily working on ways to create a more fluid and profesional business for future brides. Congrats Freddy and Violet! I loved the way that you treated and respected each other. You guy’s are so blessed and I’m so excited for you guy’s to get your photos!

Ian | baby
Ian is a precious 3 month baby that loves to look, smile, and love on his mommy. Here is an adorable mini-shoot from a Whittier diningroom. Like Ian, I hope you appreciate the little things more after looking at this blog. Take some time to look around and observe what surrounds you. Enjoy!

Never take for granite motherly affection

Caleb&Marissa | engaged
Fun. Joy. Laughs. Whatever you call it, Caleb and Marissa got it. Just a few weeks after dating, they knew that they were each others perfect fit. Folks, it’s true! They complement each other so perfectly, and most importantly they love each other by making each other laugh. I look forward to their wedding Louisiana for two reasons, 1. I love traveling, 2. Their wedding is going to be so laughs, giggles, and kisses.

If you haven’t smiled today, hope this made you have a smile :) Happy Friday, enjoy your weekend!
J.P.&Noelle | engagement
What a special couple J.P. and Noelle are. After dating for just over a year, J.P. popped the question and to his joy, she said yes! Noelle was my leader for the welcome week of college and I am so happy that I get to shoot their wedding!
This shoot was so much fun. The light was beautiful. The oaks were glorious. They are so in love. Congrats kids, I can’t wait to shoot your wedding! ________________________________________________________________________________________
Jacob&Raquel |Los Angeles Wedding
My friendship with Raquel started in kindergarden, wow where did time go!? After going to school with her for 9 years, it was such an honor to shoot her wedding! They are so cute. There is no argument about that. Jake and Raquel are absolutely perfect for each other. It was so cool to be around them that day and just see these best friends be….best friends, that never had to say goodbye at night. I’m so happy for them, Congrats!

Let’s Spice It Up | personalize
Because of the large file size of 1,000 wedding pictures, I use flash drives to deliver the images. Because of how impersonal they are, I am starting to dress them up a little with so crafty little pieces that I stole from my little sister :) 
(These are for Raquel and Jacob, the photos are in the mail and the blog is soon to come!)
