this weekend, we had the pleasure of photographing lisa and paul at bay street in emeryville. in a quieter area of this busy shopoholic's haven, we were able to take advantage of the rock and glass sculptures that pays tribute to the shellmound and the native americans who inhabited the area. having done their "homework," this dynamic duo watched the movie "hitch" to get the perfect "90% kiss" shots, brought along a couple of small props and one not-so-small prop, to ensure they would have images as beautiful and unique as these two are.
afterwards, we headed over to a tiny beach to get a glimpse of the last few rays of the setting sun, before heading out to the berkeley pier, and a parking lot, which seemed to be a type of "lover's spot" as heard by the music of silk and r.kelly blasting from a couple of parked cars.
lisa and paul were completely patient, as we tested out some creative lighting to get the perfect shot of them in paul's jaguar.
congratulations on your engagement, lisa & paul! we can't wait 'til your wedding in october!!!

You skills never cease to impress me! I am in a state of shock and cannot wait to see the rest!! Thank you SO much!!!!
Oh My God! These are SO beautiful. How did you do that?
the pictures look lovely. i love the parasol silhouette, but everything else looks great too...as always, i love the lines.
Very creative! I love the different perspective and angles that you have chosen. And your detail to lighting is great, especially in the car image. First one is definately my favorite.
Ed good series, but number one flat out rocks...LOVE IT.

oh my goodness Ed, This is crazy but again (like the handprint in sand with ring in it) , I was totally gonna do that umbrella silouhette thing! (Though actually I got that idea from a banana republic ad for the umbrella thing...) OoOo Great minds think alike. hehehehehe
The umbrella silouhette thing is nice!!!
i was just at bay street on saturday and thought what a great place to take engagement pictures. haha, apparently i'm right. these are all great shots. i especially like the one in front of the circle window. those are some great colors and lines.

Agreed about the detailed attention to the lighting in the car shots... great job there.
All the pictures are tremendous, as usual.

Great work Ed. Love your use of wide angle & that first shot is off the hook!
