Paolo Presta and Patrick Thomassie
I met Patrick and Paolo at All Saints Church in Pasadena for their engagement photos. These men are two bright lights of positive energy and joy. You can’t help but be happy just being around them.
Paolo is the host of A Spoonful of Paolo and Patrick is the producer.
This talk show has the most amazing guests. Seriously. You can find it here.
Locations for same-sex couples
My goal is to show the love that two people have for each other.
I knew All Saints had lots of great locations with lots of variety. For this shot, we took the pathway that winds through the back of the church and leads to the side lawn. You wouldn’t know it was there unless you were familiar with the church grounds.
This old wooden door is around a corner and there are tall stone walls on all sides. It’s the perfect spot for this photo. I love how happy and connected they are.
Wardrobe for same-sex photos
Because we were shooting outside, we didn’t want to fuss with changing outfits, so whatever they wore had to be suitable for every location. These colors are perfect.
I always suggest jewel tones to my clients because they photograph so well. And they look equally good in black and white.
Dark jeans or black pants are almost always a good choice. The dark color anchors you and provides a foundation.
