the wedding . summer + nick

I had the opportunity to photograph Summer & Nick's wedding this fall in beautiful Laguna beach... These two are so kind hearted; it was really easy to see their adoration for one another.

Thank you so much for making this day incredibly fun; and for giving Suthi & I such eye candy all day long... a treat! wishing you bliss!

the new studio . moving day

. moving day .

It's official; a 100 year old renovated barn in Pasadena is the new home for Skye Blu Photography!!!!!!! After three years in the previous loft; I decided to make the move to another look; new year, new inspiration. The new studio will still focus on boudoir; however the look will be a beautiful & classic option for babies, pregnancy, and children sessions as well... 

Once completed early next month; the new space will include:

a claw foot bath tub

two beds (I've added an all white, hand carved bed for a simple & pretty bedroom look)

a vintage window to shoot through

vintage furniture

high beamed ceilings

wood flooring

cream colored walls

natural light (once again; i'm lucky to have as locale filled with incredible natural lighting)

a meeting area to review albums, canvases, and such

a relaxing balcony to lounge on :) 

and other goodies

Looking forward to an inspiring new year in this new locale... 

Please contact me for any questions & to reserve a session within the new space!!!!!

I'm back from a blogging hiatus of sorts.... 

The holidays were fantastic; I soaked up my time with my family and had a blast (I'll post more photos of Luca and the festivities soon!) I'm back and ready to begin catching up with wedding, portrait and boudoir updates & photographs... I'm so far behind so I'll be posting newest work to stay current but will mix in work that hasn't yet debuted as well!

it's good to be back :)
