July 28th, 2011: Christine and Scott tied the knot last month with an intimate ceremony of 23 guests in Beverly Hills, at Franklin Canyon Park. Everything about the day went perfect due to Christine’s exacting plans, and I couldn’t have asked for a better way to spend a Saturday than wandering the park with this [...]
July 22nd, 2011: It was hot. Really hot. So hot that I at one point during the outdoor afternoon photo shoot I tried to talk to Iris and my mouth produced no sounds, only a comical puff of dust and evaporated spit. I had to work for a couple minutes just to produce the saliva to tell [...]
June 15th, 2011 We are about to walk out the door to catch the red eye for a east coast wedding and engagement shoot, but I thought I would drop a few pictures from the last few days of weddings. Daniel and Scherrie (first two images) got married in San Diego, while Christine and Scott [...]
June 14th, 2011: Late last Thursday Felicia and I made our way to an exceptionally windy Santa Monica pier to shoot Andrea and John’s engagement session. John and Andrea had already scoped it out a few weeks back and came ready with an assortment of location ideas and clothing – ready for just about anything! [...]
June 6th, 2011: Ariel and Mike contacted us a few weeks back to talk about their backyard wedding next Memorial Day. We met them at their home and learnt that Mike had proposed during the Theodore Payne Garden Tour, complete with an engagement ring that he made himself. We totally agreed that such sentimental locations [...]
May 23rd, 2011: Jo and Red got married at Middle Ranch, a wedding full of handmade details that would make any DIY-er proud. Felicia was especially intrigued by Jo’s use of a ‘Silhouette’ cutter - a gadget like a printer, but instead of printing, it has a blade that cuts whatever shapes/words you want. I suspect [...]
May 18th, 2011: Anggia and Andi gave us a call after being recommended our way by Michelle (who we photographed in/around Vegas in March). Despite being based in San Diego, they wanted their engagement shoot to include unique locations in Los Angeles. They decided on Santa Monica Pier and LACMA, which I have to agree, [...]
March 17th, 2011: Southern California provides a host of varied landscapes that make for awesome engagement shoots, and, as evident from this blog, different couples pick different locations, based on aesthetics, or in this case: sentimental reasons. Denna & Parker met through mutual friends at a party on the rooftop bar of The Standard Hotel. [...]
March 14th, 2011: So, would you all like to know how random the world can be? Yes? I thought so. Way back in 2005, before I ever met my wife, Felicia spent a semester studying French in Paris. Her program had students from Singapore, Virginia Tech, Hong Kong and University California Riverside. There she met [...]
March 4th, 2011: Felicia and I love photography and although Felicia sometimes feels uncomfortable in front of the camera (especially if I test newly-acquired gear on her when she’s just stumbled out of bed), we feel it’s important to have quality photos taken quite regularly so we can look back some day when we’re old [...]
