Gayla Elizabeth Photography bio picture

The Photographer...

I am from beautiful Honolulu, Hawaii but currently reside in Northridge, CA. I am a happy gal that loves photography and imagery. I love capturing emotions in people that create precious memories and creative art. Some of the other things that I love are...

my family

my dogs, Bailey (yellow labrador) and Rambo (the softest rottweiler ever)

food (every type you can think of)

music (seriously love all types of music. Music makes me tick)

cooking

water (I must've been a fish. I love everything about water. I have waterfalls at home, in my yard and in the office. Beaches are my favorite and I drink at least a gallon of it a day!)

laughing ( the best thing for the soul is laughter. I enjoy laughing even if it means playing a prank on someone! haha)


I could probably go on and on, but enough about me. Find me on facebook or twitter to see the latest updates. 

Aloha,

Christina & Tony – Engagement

I shot Christina & Tony’s engagement photos a few weeks back, but thought I’d post them, since I will be shooting their wedding in a few more weeks. They drove down from the Bay Area to do the engagement photos and the shoot started off a bit crazy; an LAPD black & white police car hit the side of their shiny red beetle. It was an out of service patrol car, which basically means a mechanic was driving it back to the station about 5 blocks from where the accident occurred. But, because it involved and LAPD vehicle, it took almost 2 hours of our time, pushing our shoot back a couple hours. A total of 9 officers came out and the reports that had to be drawn up was a bit over the top. I was worried both of them would be stressed about the whole accident and the pics wouldn’t be as great, but both of them were champs and went on with the shoot with no worries. You would’ve never known their car just got crunched by a police car! Great job guys. The only downfall was we didn’t have time to make it to the beach, but hey, you can’t have it all. We all had a great time and some awesome pictures. Here are a few…

This is how it started….. what chaos!!!

No fender, bender. That’s a crunch! Luckily, nobody got hurt.
