After having been a fan of my former band PAX217, Jonathan tracked me down on wikipedia to be their photographer. I’m honored to be apart of he and Michal’s life! We met at the LA Live area in downtown LA to shoot. We were “shut down” by the security in the 1st 5 minutes of the shoot! Security is heightened since the NY Times Square bomb scare.  Never the less, we had a great time, enjoyed dinner at Yard House in the middle of the shoot as we wanted to shoot at night a bit. I love shooting at night! Here are a few images, more to come in the future! Great to spend so much time with you two, dinner was great and so was the dark ale that Jonathan suggested!

Last Weekend, Tosti Studios had the opportunity to hang out at the Festival of Brides at the The Four Seasons West Lake Village and meet some awesome couples. I always get excited meeting couples who are on their wedding planning journey and who are having so much fun coordinating their big day.  I’m especially impressed when the groom comes along! Extra points for that gentlemen.   To all you future brides and grooms out there, wedding planning might seem like a long and arduous process at times but trust me it’s all worth it in the end! We had a drawing for an engagement photoshoot giveaway, and the winner is…. ASAL SEDGHI!  Congratulations again Asal! I look forward to working with you! Please connect with us to schedule your shoot and talk about what we’re going to do to tell your story best.

Hey brides and grooms! Come join us at the Beverly Hills Montage this Sunday, March 21 2010 for the Festival of Brides show!

This past weekend I had the opportunity to hang out with Jenny Lee, her sweet staff, and some fabulous brides at the Jenny Lee Trunk Show.  I offered a drawing for a free engagement shoot to all of the brides.  And the WINNER IS…… MICHELLE LIU!!! Michelle came in to try on some gowns and was back out the door on a flight to Hong Kong.  Hope you had a good flight! I look forward to working with you two!  Please email or call to schedule the shoot.  Phone: 949.715.9621  Email: studio@tostistudios.com

Thank you to all of you who came in, I hope you found the dress of your dreams,  Jenny Lee’s style is all world!

I photographed Evelyn and Tony’s engagement the day after Christmas. They were here on vacation for the holidays from NYC and wanted to utilize the CA coastline.   They are a wonderful couple!  I thought I would go ahead and step out on a limb here with the music to this one.  Why?  Because this song is from Tony’s favorite band, just listen.  These are the things I find out as I make an effort to truly connect with my clients.  Love this shoot!  We photographed this at the St. Regis in Monarch Beach, perfect weather, a little breeze and clear skies just after it had rained.  Enjoy!
