Julie + Donald Wedding
This summer, I had the pleasure of photographing the wedding of an old friend and his beautiful new bride at the Plaza at Cabrillo Marina in lovely San Pedro. Julie and Donald were complete naturals in front of the camera, a lot of that having to do with them barely noticing I was there the […]
Julie + Donald
One of my all-time favorite engagement shoot locations, Malaga Cove in Rancho Palos Verdes never disappoints! I had the pleasure of taking Julie and Donald’s engagement photos here on an absolutely perfect Southern California summer evening. The setting sun painted the happy couple in golden light and I was a happy photographer! You could not […]
Marina + Christian Wedding
Marina and Christian’s fairytale wedding day was filled with many heartfelt moments, lots of personal touches and great music!! Lots of big stained glass windows created beautiful shafts of lights that streamed in during the ceremony at St. Augustine Catholic Church in Culver City. I always love when a not-so-well-lit church has some natural light […]
Danielle + Marc
Carbon Canyon Regional Park is such a local gem, it really makes you forget you’re in Orange County. I met Danielle and Marc here for their engagement shoot amidst a grove of towering red wood and pine trees. They wanted to pick a location that was visually in line with where she grew up and […]
Araceli + David Wedding
It’s a great feeling when a bridesmaid and groomsman from a wedding I photographed end up getting engaged and hiring me to shoot their wedding too! Araceli and David were the easiest to work with, and their love for each other really made it easy for me to capture great moments on their wedding day. […]
Jillanne + Rod Wedding
Tucked away behind a 100-year-old forest, Jillanne and Rod’s wedding at the totally secluded Green Gables Wedding Estate was a complete pleasure to photograph! The secluded and vintage venue in San Diego County was the perfect setting for a fun couple to tie the knot and party the night away. The thousands of twinkle lights, […]
Araceli + David Engagement
Araceli and David had two very fun and very different engagement shoots in Orange County last year. The first one was a classic Southern California beach sunset at the Seal Beach Pier. The second was at the beautifully wooded and idyllic Fullerton Arboretum. I had a good time taking nice portraits of them in both […]
Jillanne + Rod Engagement
I had the pleasure of photographing Jillanne and Rod for their engagement shoot in Huntington Beach recently, and I can’t be happier with how the shots turned out! We had major summer Saturday crowds working against us, but luckily, I scouted the area days ahead and found several secluded nooks around Main St. that were […]
KiKi + Edward Wedding
I get great fulfillment from photographing the love, happiness and raw emotion of a bride and groom’s wedding day. KiKi and Edward’s big day was no exception! Every moment, from exchanging heartfelt vows at the beautiful Chapel of Orange to munching on late-night In-N-Out burgers together, was genuine and moving. KiKi and Edward had a great time […]
Heather + Eric Wedding
It was raining all morning leading up to Heather and Eric’s outdoor wedding at Golden Hills Golf Club in Redding. As guests were arriving and the rain was still not letting up, everyone was reluctantly ready to go with Plan B under the tent. But just like that, the clouds broke and the sun came […]
Krystal + Denzil Wedding
Krystal and Denzil’s gorgeous wedding at the Temecula Creek Inn was a visual buffet, filled with colorful and unique details, which is always a wedding photographer’s dream! Distressed chalkboard signs, a popcorn bar and one of the funniest cake toppers I’ve ever seen are just a few examples of the awesome decor that made my […]
Daisy + Martin Honeymoon Shoot
Five months after her wedding, Daisy reached out to me about wanting to set up sort of a “honeymoon” photo shoot with her new husband and their adorable dog Moo at the beach in full bride and groom get-up. There were lots of poses and photo ideas she still wanted to do that we couldn’t […]
Krystal + Denzil Engagement
Krystal and Denzil are avid campers and lovers of the outdoors, so it was fitting that their engagement photos were taken at Caspers Wilderness Park before they set up to camp for the night. The sun was low in the sky on a warm day in October and there was nobody on the entire camp […]
Cristina & Tony Wedding
Cristina and Tony’s wedding was brimming with intimate and colorful details, from the elegant florals to the ornate dress of traditional Cambodian dancers. I always enjoy shooting a wedding in my home town of Long Beach, especially bridal party photos at Hilltop Park in Signal Hill, where we were treated to a truly stunning view […]
Cristina + Tony Engagement
On a clear and wind swept day this past summer, Cristina and Tony had their engagement photos taken at Angel’s Gate Park, where a stunning hilltop view of the Pacific Ocean seems to stretch on forever. One of my favorite engagement photos spots in LA, this place never disappoints. Having an awesome and easy going […]
Laura + John Wedding – Northstar, Lake Tahoe
I had the priviledge of flying out to Tahoe this summer to document Laura and John’s wedding at the beautiful Northstar Resort. It was my first time in Tahoe, and the clean pine air and stunning views made it a truly unforgettable experience. Lots of fun, rustic details went into their special day, and everything […]
Trish + Angelo Wedding – Wilson Creek Winery
Getting a chance to document Trish and Angelo’s wedding was extra special to me because they are good friends going back quite a while. Shooting a wedding is a little more fun when you know everyone at the party! Wilson Creek Winery in Temecula was a gorgeous setting and taking bridal party photos out in […]
Daisy + Martin Wedding
Daisy and Martin are a pair of extraordinary people whose wedding I had the pleasure of photographing recently. They brought lots of fun and creative ideas to the table for photos on their wedding day, and it made my job even more enjoyable to recreate what they envisioned. I had a blast capturing every moment […]
