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 11th, 2011: I’ve said before on this blog that one of my favorite things about shooting weddings is that Felicia and I are constantly surrounded by happy people, and we also have the privilege of meeting lots of people from all walks of life, and sometimes, from all over the world.

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 [...]
February 16th, 2011: When Natalie contacted me about her engagement session with Justin, we bantered back and forth about locations and finally decided on starting around Pasadena City Hall and wandering on from there. Justin and Natalie love living in Pasadena almost much as Felicia and I love our town of Burbank. We got to [...]
Dec 10, 2006: So… How do alcoholics celebrate Christmas? Of course! We all dress up as Santa and go on 1st annual Santa Pub Crawl!
