Jackie and Lee met on campus at UCLA while doing their undergrad, but it wasn’t until years later that they would meet again and the sparks would fly. They graduated from UCLA and he stayed on the West Coast for med school while she made the East Coast her home for the next few years as she attended Harvard. It wasn’t until they saw each other at a mutual friend’s wedding that they reconnected and started their relationship towards happily ever after.
We started our shoot at the W Hotel in Westwood which has some really amazing decor. In between shots Jackie and I talked about our obsession with shoes and what a small world we live in since one of her bridesmaids (Hi Melissa!) went to high school with Jeff and his sister!



Jackie and Lee are so cute together! I love when my couples are so easy going in front of my camera.


When we finally made our way onto campus, we were blessed with some really incredible light.




Lee says he’s not comfortable being in front of the camera, but I beg to differ.

Then I gave Jackie a shot and these two both definitely know how to work it.

You want me to put my hand up? Like this? Yes, perfect…. LOL!


As we were walking on campus I noticed the silhouette of trees on this brick wall and found it so enchanting and dream like. This is one of my favorite images from the day.


I love Jackie’s expression here! So cute!






After our shoot, we all headed over to Diddy Riese’s and got us some delish cookies. They were better than I remembered and totally hit the spot! I’m not going to mention how many made it into my stomach on the way home though. Eeks! Jackie and Lee, I’m so looking forward to your big day!
