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 [...]

January 2nd, 2012: Holy Crap. Where the hell did that year go?!?! Felicia and I have been non-stop shooting, editing, and traveling for the last eight months, and then, all the sudden I am sitting having a beer on New Years Eve (4 minutes until midnight) and I realized 2011 was over. I looked at [...]

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 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 [...]

July 19th, 2011: I find the quickest way to anger your wife is to take a razor sharp object and put it in her carry-on luggage. This really seems to do the trick, even for the calmest and most forgiving of wives who deal with the foibles of a man on a daily basis, this [...]

July 11th, 2011: Daniel is one of my oldest and best friends, I have known him for about 20 years – he was one of my Groomsmen in Singapore and took part in our ceremony. He met Scherrie a few years ago while working in the Bay area and they instantly knew they were [...]

June 20th, 2011: We are about to head from Washington D.C. to New York after a super busy 4 days here – the final count ended up being 1 wedding, 1 engagement session, two family sessions, and barely any time for sightseeing. Although the weather was sweatily reminiscent of Singapore and the traffic awful, Felicia [...]

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 9th, 2011: In about 4 hours our summer season will begin. In the next 10 days we have 3 weddings and 4 shoots scheduled across the two American coasts. We will be in Los Angeles, Washington D.C. and New York – flying red eye and capturing the memories for our clients. When we get [...]

June 4th, 2011: Next weekend Daniel, one of my best friends, will be getting married to Scherrie – but before that can happen we were required to head out for one last weekend of intoxicated debauchery to celebrate all that is man. We spent the long weekend in a house on golf course drinking too [...]
