Product Shoot for Fonality

ip4000.jpgAfter the last shoot for Fonality, we were asked again to do another product shot for a product manual. This time they didn’t want them with an “artsy” look, they wanted high quality images with a very normal look with all of the products being lit exactly the same and shot at a very low angle. This was a major rush job but after pulling a light night we got it delivered on-time.

Images In Print

fonality_spirit.jpgA while back I did a photo shoot for Fonality. These images are now flying high in the skys over the US in Spirit Magazine, the magazine that is available onboard Southwest Airlines. The upper right hand image of the person was from a stock house but the product shots were all done by us.

While it was a pretty basic photo shoot, the client wanted a more “artsy” look to the images so we lit them with pretty harsh light so they had a high contrast look to them. The client was quite pleased and we got asked to do another photo shoot for them tonight.

Wedding of Kerrie and Jeff

kerri-jeff-36.jpgWe must be blessed lately to have done some wedding and engagement shoots with some really incredivle couples. This weekend was no exception with the wedding of Kerrie and Jeff. As a second photographer for Esquire Photography, we followed the couple from the church, out to the beach, and then to the reception hall. The whole family was a tremendous amount of fun and it’s certainly people like this that make our job so worthwhile. I want to thank them for letting us be a part of their special day, it was one of the funnest events I have attended in a while. Continue reading for a slideshow of images from the event.

Michelle and Josh Engagement Shoot

img_2850.jpgI have known Michelle for a couple of years and when we ran into each other at a recent Bridal Cruise I was thrilled to hear she was getting married and with my buddy David from Esquire Photography, we arranged a wedding and engagement shoot for her and Josh. They were both a little shy in front of the camera at first, but once they warmed up it was ON!! We had a terrific time shooting them at the Fullerton Aboretum and then down on the beach in Laguna. It’s couples like Michelle and Josh that make doing this job worthwhile. Their spirit and energy really comes through. Continue reading to see a gallery of images from the shoot.

Preparing for a wedding shoot

Ever wonder what a photographer has to do to get ready for a photo shoot? In getting ready for a recent wedding shoot I decided to create a diary of sort to show people what all is involved. From charging batteries, to checklists, to cleaning cameras, to checking flash cards, I documented the entire week of preparations.

Santiago Fire Day 14

img_2605.jpgIt’s hard to believe the fires are still burning, there is almost zero news coverage now. Seems crazy how our media works, first they overload you with information and then turn it off before its over. This country doesn’t know that we are still at war or that fires are still burning throughout southern California, its just mind boggling. Many people right here, within just a few miles of the blazes don’t even know it is still burning.
