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 [...]
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 [...]
August 25th 2011: A couple of months ago when Felicia and I flew out to Washington DC for a wedding, we also shot Angela & Jeff’s engagement session against the epic backdrop of the Lincoln Memorial. Jeff and Angela moved out to DC due to Jeff’s work with the US Coast Guard, but they recently [...]
August 17th 2011: Before I met Felicia and she beat me into submission to force an honest man out of me (she tries, but I doubt she’s succeeding…), I was fresh out of college, bartending, and being my raucous, rambunctious self. During those crazy years, I had a bunch of bar regulars, some of whom [...]
August 15th, 2011: Friday afternoon I was feeling rather burnt out: we have been shooting and editing non-stop since June when we went to NYC and DC, and just felt like a couple days away from the computer would help me come back refreshed. It also coincided with the first weekend in a long time [...]
August 11th, 2011: Felicia and I met Shaby and Mike more than a year before their wedding day, when we shot their engagement session at The Grove. Time surely flies, as a few weeks ago, we were reunited again at their wedding at The Vineyards. Shaby put in lots of effort with handmade details throughout [...]
August 10th, 2011: Michael and Genna are long-time sweethearts who have been together since they were 16. And throughout the years, visiting the OC Fair has been an annual highlight. When it came to deciding on a location for their engagement pictures, Michael & Genna decided without hesitation that the Fair would be the best [...]
August 8th, 2011: Sitting around the kitchen table with Felicia this morning reading the Sunday paper (we had a wedding yesterday – as with most weekends – so we catch up on the weekend LA Times on Monday), we were in the midst of discussing our tasks for the day, including blogging, when we heard [...]
August 4th, 2011: Amber and Matt wed a few weeks ago at the very scenic Padua Hills Theater, having been referred to us by Brandon, the brother of one of our grooms last year (Katie & Brett’s wedding). Incidentally, during that time Felicia had to rush back to Singapore to see her ailing father and [...]
August 2nd, 2011: “BALLOONS!” my wife exclaimed as she saw Alisa and John unloading in the parking lot of Crystal Cove State Park. I gathered Felicia was obviously excited about the balloons, and I was excited because the balloons meant this couple had come ready to have fun, and being surrounded by fun loving people who [...]
