I met Graham randomly by chance while stopping off at a gas station along the Big Sur highway on our way to watch the Redbull US Grandpix at Laguna Seca back in 2009. My girlfriend loves motorcycles–especially Yahama sportbikes. So when Graham rolled up to the pump, Becki didn’t hesitate to strike up a conversation […]

I just wanted to share this AMAAAAZZZING album with you guys.  It just landed in the studio on it’s way out to Sean & Holly, and I had to take some photos of it.   Finao Albums impress me every time one of their beautiful, handmade albums arrives at my studio, and this one is […]

I originally met Abby on Christmas day at the dog beach on Coronado Island. As if the giant 1 ft wide dog bone Santy-Claws brought Chopper wasn’t enough, we decided to treat him to his 2nd most favoritest thing besides a steak dinner and a good belly rub: The BEACH! ZOMG! Anywho, we bumped into […]

Yesterday we went to the San Diego Hardrock Hotel & the San Diego Convention Center to do a bridal fashion shoot with Sanja. I was super stoked, as i absolutely LOVE shooting bridal fashion. I could seriously spend days shooting at the SD Hardrock Hotel and not run out of locations that would make any […]

Daryn & James got married at the beautiful Mediterranean-styled Miramonte Resort & Spa in Palm Springs, California. When I first talked to Daryn about her wedding, I learned that she’s a production manager for the Chelsea Lately Show on the E channel. So I was expecting her to be really high energy, given that she […]

I recently had the opportunity to photograph Sean & Holly’s beautiful persian wedding at the Irvine Hyatt Regency Hotel . The attention to details and the lavish decorations were amaaaaazing. I had no idea you could even carve a watermelon into a flower blossom! The whole event was super high energy with an awesome vibe, […]

My new studio album sample for 2011 just arrived. It’s a Finao One Flushmount album. For those of you not in the know, this is the creme de la creme when it comes to flushmount wedding albums. Finao has totally raised the bar since the introduction of their flushmount wedding albums several years ago; the […]

I recently had the pleasure of shooting Chris & Ashlee’s beaauuuutiful wedding at the Bernardo Winery in san diego. I’ve been looking forward to photographing their wedding since last february when we had a blast doing their engagement photos in Laguna Beach and Nellie Gale ranch.  They were super fun to work with, and are totally bonkers for […]

The Walt Disney Concert Hall has got to be one of the coolest places I’ve ever done an engagement shoot at. The building was actually designed long before it was constructed. The building & materials technology didn’t exist at the time the plans were drawn up by architect Frank Gehry. So he had to wait […]

Before I shot weddings…. some of my first fashion photos from way back in 2002…in my college days….  I remember dragging a 9 foot roll of seamless and all of my gear  to the gym a mile on the other side of campus to set up a make-shift studio in a squash court. good times […]
