Jennifer&Christopher……………Married

October 30, 2008 – 1:14 pm

This wedding was a blast! I had been looking forward to it all year due to the amazing couple and spectacular location. The wedding was held at the beautiful Los Angeles Union Station. We were given an all access pass and were able to shoot anywhere we wanted! We had a great time exploring all of the cool areas that were off limits to the public. As we walked around it felt like we had been taken back in time. This is a photographers dream! The whole day went off without a hitch.

First up is one of my favorite shots of the day. Jen and Chris are so elegant.

Here is Jennifer waiting to see Chris for the first time that day

The architecture at this place was gorgeous.

Jennifer was just beaming during the ceremony.

I love the hand written chinese characters on these place cards.

And of course the beautiful bouquet.

Everything about Jennifer’s ensemble fit so well with the location. She looked like she stepped right out of a time machine.

I really hope that I get to shoot here again!

Karin & Arjan……….E-Session

October 26, 2008 – 9:58 pm

I had such a great time with Karin and Arjan. Our e-session was actually the first time I met them in person. You see, Karin and Arjan live in NYC and are getting married out here in Southern California. A few months back Karin found my website and contacted me. We spoke on the phone and emailed back and forth and I was really happy when Karin gave me the final word that they wanted to hire me. We scheduled their e-session while they both were out here on business. Karin is a accomplished multimedia designer and both her and Arjan have great taste so I knew that I had to bring my A game to this session. We had a great time hanging out and roaming around LA. I cant wait for their wedding next month.

Mandy and Brian……Married

October 19, 2008 – 10:59 pm

This was such a fun wedding for me. Mandy and I have been friends since high school and when I found out she was getting married, I was really happy for her. Then I was even happier when they asked me to shoot their wedding. Both the ceremony and reception were held at the amazing Kennolyn resort located outside Santa Cruz, CA. There were so many great pictures from the day of as well as their day after session that I had a hard time choosing which ones to post. Thanks for the wonderful weekend guys it was awesome!

Mandy’s beautiful hair piece

This is one of my all time favorite getting ready shots

Mandy’s makeup was amazing.

Brian had the best expressions for looking directly into the camera.

Mandy was all smiles the whole day.

But she can also rock the serious/model face.

Brian with his two brothers as his best men.

The Kennolyn Resort has such an amazing since of calm about it.

And now some pictures from their day after session

Such a great wedding shared with beautiful people. Thanks so much guys!

Kindra & Tyler

October 12, 2008 – 9:59 pm

Another great portrait session, this time staring Kindra and Tyler. We headed down to Laguna Beach and found some great spots to shoot. While its great to have the beach here in So Cal I love shooting in downtown urban locations even more! There are so many great colors and textures! Before we started these two said they were a little nervous, but once we got into our grove of shooting they were total naturals. Fun times indeed.

The Newby Family

October 12, 2008 – 7:38 pm

So much to blog so little time! I had to make some time though to post some pictures from a really fun session with the Newby family. I have known Jason and Jessica for a while now and when they were down here for the summer, they told me we had to get together for a family portrait session. I am really glad that it worked out, because we got some great shots. Their little girl Avery is so cute and she had no problem hamming it up for the camera. Enjoy!
