May 1st, 2012: It’s almost the season for college graduation, and yesterday Felicia and I spent a lovely spring day morning at Malibu Creek State Park with Jill, a graduating film school student. We had a great time photographing and getting to know this vivacious, confident young woman, as we talked about the movie/TV industry [...]
April 24th, 2012: Britany contacted me a few months back from Japan about photographing her and Roberto’s wedding day. Amazingly, Britany was planning the whole thing from overseas and they just arrived in town a couple days ago, and about 2 weeks before their big day. Still jet lagged from the transpacific flight, Roberto and [...]
March 9th, 2012: As you might be able to tell from the last few posts, Felicia and I are right smack in the middle of engagement photos season – It’s like pre-season for the upcoming summer packed full of weddings. This past Sunday we met Alex and Amy in Santa Barbara (one of Felicia’s favorite [...]
March 1st 2012: For the home stretch of our week on the road we headed over to San Francisco, or what some of the older Chinese call Jiu Jin Shan (Old Gold Mountain). It’s called Jiu Jin Shan because it was given that name by the Chinese who arrived during the gold rush searching for their [...]
February 28th 2012: Remember that scene from Up where Karl and Russell meet the talking Doug the talking dog who immediately yells “SQUIRREL!”? Well that’s how I started feeling when traveling around California with Felicia’s mother. For some reason Christina is absolutely fascinated by these little guys and anytime we came across one she [...]
February 27th 2012: By Day Three of our California road trip, I’d put the chains on the car for Sequoia, taken them off to get back on the 99 to head to Yosemite, then had to put them back on to make our way into Yosemite Valley. For any of you who have ever had [...]
January 4th, 2012: Last week I got a Facebook message from Randy (who I hiked the Lost Coast with in 2009) and he was coming into town and wanted to spend an afternoon taking some photos, hanging out and grabbing a beer. I was quick to accept and we met up down by Manhattan Beach [...]
December 19th, 2011: Christmas wouldn’t be Christmas without making sure we got put on the naughty list (or at least the moderate-troublemaking list), so for our 5th year straight we rallied the Santa’s and headed off to Pasadena for another evening of Holiday celebrations. As we’ve done for the past half decade, we drank slightly [...]
October 19th, 2011: A couple weeks ago my mother was able to pull the entire family together in one spot for an afternoon picnic (minus my youngest brother, who came down with adult chicken pox – sucks for him). Me, finally able to relax under a giant oak tree drinking red wine, could barely be [...]
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 [...]
