September 28th, 2011: Felicia and I might just eat too much from time to time. Our gluttony sometime has no rational limits. Like how a few weeks ago while in Napa (the day before Pete + Cindy’s wedding)we made dinner reservations at Bistro Jeanty (a quaint little French bistro that turned out to be Michelin-starred), [...]

September 27th 2011: Earlier this month, Felicia and I drove our little car up north to Napa for Pete & Cindy’s destination wedding at The Chardonnay Golf Club (speaking of driving, I’m disappointed we only clocked 36.25MPG on that long drive). It was a beautiful day for a wedding, a surprising reprieve from the heat [...]

September 22nd, 2011: How is it that it’s almost the end of September already? It feels like not too long ago, I was making lofty plans to eat better, work out more… In the same way, it feels slightly surreal to shoot John & Nathasha’s first anniversary session. It didn’t seem like too long ago [...]

Sept 19th, 2011: [Guest Post by Felicia because Rob is busy editing like a maniac] Ian and Heather. So many wonderful things we can say about these two, who booked us a solid 18 months before their wedding day. Their engagement shoot was one of the most memorable ones we’ve ever done, and lots of [...]

September 14th, 2011: A couple of weeks ago when we were up in Napa to shoot Pete & Cindy’s wedding, we also met up with Danielle, Felicia’s friend from Singapore whom she met during French classes back in 2005 at the Alliance Française in Singapore. Now living in the Bay Area, Danielle is a writer [...]

Sept 12th, 2011: For the past two months, every Sunday morning our Los Angeles Times has been missing from our doorstep. The first few weeks I figured it was a new paper-person (paperboy is no longer P.C. is it?), but then every week I would complain and they would re-deliver the paper. Yesterday morning [...]

September 9th, 2011: Earlier this year, Felicia and I shot Hellen & Jose’s engagement session, and before we knew it, it was time for their wedding at the Valencia Country Club. It was a blazing hot day when we started, with the mercury apparently set to hit 105 that day. Thankfully the heat had abated [...]

September 7th, 2011: About a year ago, I was sitting around narcissistically Google-ing myself when I came across the first photo above of Robert C. Paetz + Mother, dated 1923 being sold for $12 by a man named Paul in Northern California. I quickly did the math and figured it was my 93 year old [...]

Sept 1st, 2011: Drea and John wed a couple of weeks ago at their beautiful home off Mulholland Drive on a mild Californian summer day (thankfully). It was an intimate wedding with just over 60 guests, with ample time to enjoy the good food and the company of friends & family, very much reminiscent of [...]
