It seems like 2012 is the year of weddings. In just the first few days of this new year, we have heard so much about recent engagements. Hopefully this is a sure sign that the world is ready to go back to the way things were. It seems like most couples are very optimistic about 2012!

I’ve always loved the Biltmore hotel. When an opportunity came up to exhibit at a bridal show, I took it! The Biltmore is the definition of 20′s LA opulence. It’s beyond beautiful. Here’s to high hopes of getting an opportunity to photograph at the Biltmore this year.

Aside from our normal wedding photography display, we were able to offer brides extremely valuable tips for their wedding day. Professional fashion model Romie Von Klinger was at our booth offering brides helpful tips on flattering poses for photographs. Looking their best is a great concern for many brides we interact with. Based on feedback from brides, these tips were a great success!

Here’s Romie “working it” and a few other images from the event

Introducing the perfect gift for the gentleman in your life. A soft boudoir portrait session is the perfect statement of sexiness without being overt about it. Subtle expressions in the eyes say so much more.

Ditch the chocolates, teddy bears and mylar balloons this year. All you need is a gentleman’s dress shirt, a pair of sexy briefs and optional heels to keep your man’s interest highly peaked. These alluring portraits work for all body types and exude absolute sensuality. It’s a beautiful thing to share intimate portraits of you between you and your partner in the privacy of your own bedroom.

Just in time for Valentine’s day, we are offering the Soft Boudoir portrait session at the FotoNuova studio. Your session will include:

-A chilled bottle of champagne
-A hair and make up artist
-A portrait session at the studio
-A fine art book containing your intimate images

A look into our Engagement session with MiJung and Scott. Our session took place at Scott and MiJung’s home. It was important for MiJung and Scott to have their pets included in their session so having the session at home was a natural fit.

For all you pet lovers, having your Engagement session at home is an absolutely great way to incorporate your 4 legged loved ones! Afterall, we are all on this planet only once so capture the memory of these little souls!

Another important aspect for them was to have a few studio shots which was extremely easy to bring our portable studio their home and make some black and white magic for them!

Check out what a recent client said about our service!!

“First of all, let me just start by saying I am not a fan of taking photos. For some reason, the camera doesn’t seem to be my biggest advocate. I can take 100 photos and not find one that I like and so I typically shy away from the camera. Now, my business is in Pasadena and unfortunately, I was in need of a current Business Portrait. I decided to work with FotoNuova and boy was I happy with that decision. FotoNuova was very creative and presented me with some interesting options for my Executive Portrait. I didn’t want my headshot to be boring or typical and Aaron had some great ideas on what we could do to capture the image I would be happy with. Aaron was very professional, detailed and had a compelling way of making me feel comfortable. I came into the photo session expecting an experience comparable to visiting the dentist. I was thinking, “Let’s just get this over with.” But I was thrilled with the results I was left with. I would definitely work with Aaron again and I would recommend him to anyone who’s in need of Head Shots or Business Portraits. I honestly get compliments from my fellow realtors on my Business Headshot. Which actually says alot. 5 stars for sure.” -Edward L.

We can all attest to witnessing some of the most uninteresting snapshots taken by our friends and loved ones. Most of the time, the camera operator turns on the camera, points it at the subject and clicks. Most of the time, they end up with a dull and uninteresting portrait.

Watch this video for 1 simple tip that will significantly enhance your snapshot portraits! It’s a super simple tip and only about 1 minute long!

Please allow the video a short time to load. To watch it in High Definition, click here: Secret to Enhancing Your Portraits

Please forgive the lack of smooth delivery! I’ll get better with time!
