Christina and Jason: Culver City Engagement Session
Christina and Jason are an outgoing pair who love the theater (among many other things). Christina is a real Opera singer and Jason is a graphic designer who love acting. They met many years ago when they were both in their teens, during a stage performance of Guys and Dolls. About 7 years ago they reconnected and have been inseparable ever since! They’ve been spending the past few years in NYC and recently moved back to California. Christina first contact me back at the beginning of this year saying “Yours are the first wedding photos that I have not rolled my eyes at! I love how they are candid, tasteful, and beautiful.” I knew then she was Awesome, with a capitol A! We soon met and they shared with me their plans of a beautiful November wedding. This weekend, I had the great pleasure of capturing Christina and Jason’s engagement pictures at their old stomping grounds… The Pacific Theaters in Culver City!
Another fun fact about Christina, she is an avid knitter. She made a jumbo red scarf just for her engagement session!
I love when my couples make their photo shoots personal. When Christina told me about her and Jason’s new “bat-mobile” purchase, we both agreed it would be awesome to have it as a prop for the session! We took these last few images on a parking structure’s rooftop. From there we had beautiful views of Culver City and a beautiful sunset.
More to come of these two lovers on this date…

Did you really make the jumbo scarf just for the photo shoot?! I’m seriously impressed… You guys look awesome in these photos. I can’t wait to come back to California for the wedding.
Gros bisous et meilleurs voeux from the Mile High City!

I love how much COLOR is in these photos! Nothing stuffy or formal – so perfect!
@ 9:12 am
Loved all of the photos!!! I do not have one definite favorite. I really liked the ones where Christina is knitting, standing in front of the car, leaning on the clock, the ring on the yarn, the dice with the date, okay all of them! Can’t wait to see you two soon!!!
@ 9:19 am
Lovely pictures you two! I particularly liked the black and white close up – it’s really sweet and intimate.
@ 9:36 am
Nice photos. We’ll see you all soon.
@ 9:36 am
You both look so happy! I can’t wait until the wedding.

Great photos! My personal favorites: black and white close-up, long scarf, ring on scarf, individual shots, and the date shot (of course). ;oD
@ 11:34 am
Photos are awesome! Black and white photo is my favorite! So happy for you both!
@ 12:15 pm
These pictures are pretty awesome! I remember fondly the Culver City theater. Also – yeah, I knew Christina knitted, but WOW. Jason, you are a braver man than I to pose for pictures in a 20 foot knitting.
See you guys soon!

I’m like Jules, I love all of the pictures (you two made a great choice in photographer) … If I must choose some favorites: #1 the black and white on the stairs; #2 the knitting one (above the ring shot) and #3 the non-kissing Batmobile (over the kissing one, which is nice too). As a sidebar, I really like the first shot in front of the theater … it’s a clever action shot!
@ 2:02 pm
Call me old fashioned, but I liked the dice. Classy touch.
@ 6:04 pm
It’s obvious that these two lovely people are in love! My fav is the two of you on the stairs (the one above the knitting picture. Can’t wait for November 4!
@ 8:00 pm
You guys look so-oh happy in these picture! The photographer truly captured the love you share.

Love them all, especially the knitting photo gazing up at Jason with the twinkle in your eye!
@ 9:22 pm
Great photos, like the theater in the background, very appropriate for the two of you.
@ 9:35 pm
You know I cringe to see someone sitting on a car like that! Extra points for the dice. And for making Culver City look like a parking lot… Looking forward to seeing everyone soon.
@ 10:08 pm
OMG…these photos are AWESOME! Well done, Sherry for letting them be free to be who they are…which is VERY special, indeed.
And can we talk about the ring????
