YesterdayI got the pleasure of shooting a nice, intimate ceremony and after-party for Peter and Lilliana. Starting at St. John The Babtist church in Costa Mesa and then heading over to a parent’s house for a little party and some shots out on the gold course. Everyone was a joy to work with and were all a lot of fin to work with. Best wishes to them as they start their new lives together.

Alex and Genevieve Wedding
For what is probably the last wedding of the season, I shot along with David from Esquire Photography for a fantastic day with Alex and Genevieve. I went off to work with the guys while David was off with the girls. We then headed off to the Nativity Catholic Church for very nice ceremony, then off to the Seal Beach pier where we all froze of tooshies off. Finally we headed over to Old Ranch Country Club for a fun-filled reception that ran until midnight. Alex and Genevieve where a total blast to work with and their bridal party kept us laughing all night. Happy Holidays and best wishes on your new life together!
Patty and Josh Wedding
What an awesome day for a wedding it was yesterday and to be able to work with Patty, josh, and their wonderful family made very a fantastic event. David from Esquire Photography asked me to help him out with this shoot and I was happy to oblige. The morning started off at Bella Monde for hair styling, then off to the Lakewood Baptist Church to finish getting ready.
Most of the portraits were done before the ceremony except for Josh and Patty and Josh’s face lit up when he saw Patty come down the aisle. The ceremony was beautiful, the reception was fun, and everyone was a joy to work with. As these two family’s come together, we wish them the absolute best.
Matt and Wendy Wedding
What a beautiful day it was yesterday for Matt and Wendy’s wedding. The wedding and ceremony were held at the gorgeous Rancho Capistrano and was all put together by the amazing Gini Garner. The ceremony was short and sweet and everyone was just awesome to work with. The reception was a ton of fun while everyone was dancing their butts off all night until the newlyweds were wisked off in the limo.
People like Wendy and Matt make doing this job so rewarding. Good luck to you both!
Carol and Anita Wedding
The weather couldn’t have been more perfect and being right on the ocean there is always a fear of a marine layer coming in and ruining your pictures but Mother Nature was in full cooperation today as Carol and Anita exchanged vows after being together for 24 years!! It was quite a beautiful ceremony with Carol singing to Anita, and a lovely sand mixing ceremony that involved the entire family. Carol and Anita are one of the nicest couples I have had the pleasure of working with and the event went on with the precision you would expect from an event managed by Linda Gray from A Wedding Store. Linda is simply an amazing coordinator that I love working with since I know things are going to be done right. I was the primary shooter on this event working as an associate photographer for Esquire Photography.
Nicole and Mike Wedding
Never passing up an opportunity to shoot, I had the chance to work with David from Esquire Photography yesterday for Nicole and Mike’s wedding. From a lovely ceremony to a fun filled reception, hanging out with Nicole and Mike last night was a blast. I started off with the guys, which meant I sat watching TV as they barely were ready by the time the limo showed up, from there the day kept getting better and better. It was a perfect fall day other than it being incredibly bright outside. The families were all just awesome to be around. This was a great start to their new life together.
Mark and Rachel Wedding
This past weekend I had the pleasure of shooting Mark and Rachel at the beautiful Kindred Community Church in Anaheim Hills. Although it threatended to rain on us a few times, Mother Nature blessed the day and the awesome lighting she gave us to work with. Mark and Rachel were a blast to work with and we wish them the absolute best as they begin their journey together.
Nick and Kelly Wedding
What a treat I had getting to shoot the wedding for Kelly and Nick! They are a terrific couple and Kelly was so laid back getting ready I couldn’t believe it. This was a tough shoot with a number of technical challenges, namely trying to have a ceremony in almost zero visibility, good thing Kelly let me bring in some lights to brighten up her evening. Leah and Linsey, from The Doubleknot Twins, are the most hard working wedding coordinators I have ever seen! From lighting probably close to 300 candles (200 votives in bags with sand), to topping off the sangria bar, they were incredible. All night, Mike from TurtleBoy Studios keep the tunes rolling. What a great evening of fun and celebration!
Wedding of Andy and Cathy
My friend Jeremy from Lucero Photography calls me last night and asks if I can come help him shoot a small ceremony. Sounded a bit odd that they wanted a second just for the ceremony, turns out there were FIVE photographers there. They wanted some massive coverage and boy did they get it. What a beautiful ceremony it was too. I wish you the best, it was my pleasure to be able to shoot your special day.
