Welcome to my blog!
My name is Jeffrey Neal and I am an Orange County Photographer!

This is where you can see all that I am doing in the world of photography!  On my blog you will find the latest images from all the shoots that I have, information for my clients and any other crazy ideas or projects that I have.  
I love when my brides have such a clear vision of how they want there engagement sessions to go!!  Heather and Andrew when they met with me new exactly what they wanted and that is what we did.  Heather has a friend with this awesome 67 VW bus who let us use it as a prop to shoot their session and I am so happy with how they turned out.  Heather and Andrew are getting married next March at the Turnip Rose and I could not be more excited.  Enjoy!

Jeffrey

Last friday I was in Temecula to shoot Cortney and Sean's wedding at the Falkner Winery.
Every time I am in Temecula I realize that it is a shame that I only go out there to shoot weddings.  I really need to take my wife out there for a weekend of wine tasting.  Cortney and Sean had a great little wedding with their friends and family at this beautiful winery.  The day was gorgeous and the wedding could not have been more fun.  

I will be back here soon to do a little table top shoot with Ceremony magazine!  Can not wait!!

For those of you that follow my blog you know that Ashley and Ross were the winners of my 2010 wedding giveaway!  Ashley and Ross had a total of over 8,000 votes which tells me that they have a lot of friends that love them, and when I got to know them it made sense.  Ashley and Ross both have such great personalties and were meant to be together.  They got married at the Newport Beach Marriott and the whole day was perfect!

I was so stoked to learn that when I posted the blog about my giveaway the girls over at Design Visage wanted to get in on the action and gave Ashley their talent for her hair and make-up for her wedding.  Thank you so much ladies.

Side note; the pictures of the bridal party dying laughing is all due to the skills of Peter Merry!

Enjoy!  The details for the next giveaway will be announced soon, so stay tuned!!

Engagements like a BOSS!  I have shot a ton of these lately and a lot in LA which I am loving!!  These two are Maureen and Jeremy that I shot last week.  It was such a fun day.  We took the train to Union Station and it was great because I really got some good time to get to know them on the ride down.  They are such a great couple and the love they have for each other was really cute to see in person.  I have said this before but engagement sessions for me are really about getting to know your clients and building that "Chemistry" so that on the day of the wedding they are comfortable and willing to let you into one of the most intimate moments of their life.  Check em out!!!

Thank you Maureen and Jeremy for an amazing day!!

HUGE POST WARNING!!
I like getting things done, so this morning I woke up and edited the engagement session I shot yesterday up in Pasadena.  Leah and Jason are such an awesome couple.  Leah is a designer and Jason does everything from building brands, design for clothing companies and also has his own brand of clothes called Anza Clothing.  They pretty much rock.

When we talked about there engagement session Leah and Jason said they have a friend with an amazing house in Pasadena that they wanted to shoot at.  Of course, I was game and wow was the house amazing.  I always love shooting new places and engagement sessions that are not like all the rest.  We played in the house for a while and then went to down town Pasadena to finish the day.  Check out how cute these two are.

BTW, Leah and Jason were the winners of the Wedding Chicks awesome Honeymoon giveaway.

Alice M. says:

I am Leah's aunt so I really looked over the pictures closely. There was not one that I didn't like but I really loved the one in the white rockers with the dog, the black and white photo in the bathroom and the one under the tree where she is looking over her shoulder at Jason - the look on their faces just screams LOVE. The house used for the shoot was fab. The scrabble quilt was a nice touch as well. You are very creative so I can't wait to see the real deal at the wedding in Palm Springs.

Totally awesome! I love the shots where they're smiling! The bathroom shot is my favorite...the mirror image is perfect. All the shots reflect their love...what an amazing couple. GREAT photography...you must know them well, or are just a very intuitive person!
