I met Jialing and Leonard at The J. Paul Getty Museum in Los Angeles for their engagement session. I’m a frequent visitor to The Getty but I’m usually there to visit the amazing photography exhibits. And I do like to take a look at a Rembrandt now and again. I will be working as Jialing and Leonard’s wedding photographer in May at Verandas in Manhattan Beach. Check back then for more photos of this cute couple!

As I mentioned, this is where we were …

It’s always good to start off with a little kissing.

And people standing on stairs always looks hot!

Those of you who are fans of my work know I love straight lines. So how come I
didn’t straighten this photo? Is it an artistic secret or did I just miss it in my editing?

Awwww. Isn’t that sweet!

Casually Cool

Even after visiting the museum dozens of times, I’d never seen this "hidden" stone grotto.

So here it is again …

What else did you expect a photographer to do with a reflecting pool?

I should have them grab a cup of coffee. It would have made for a nice prop!

I had this AMAZING shot all worked out and someone sat down at the
table I needed. So I instead settled for this photo (which ain’t half bad if I say so myself).

Blue skies, smiling at me …

I think is my favorite image of the day. Which one do you like best?

This photograph is certified as 100% "Grade A" Rob Greer–your friendly neighborhood Los Angeles wedding photographer.

After I posted this blog entry I received an e-mail from Julie Jaskol, Assistant Director of Media Relations at The Getty. She stated, “Just a note that commercial photography at the Getty is prohibited without prior written permission. Unfortunately, we are not able to allow wedding or engagement photography at all, due to the sheer demand and the impact it would have on other visitors’ experience.” With this information in hand, unless a client is able to obtain written permission prior to our shoot, I won’t be able to accept The Getty as an option for future engagement sessions.
