I am thrilled for you to view this engagement slide show! In our meeting, Michelle & Tim told me that they both love the California coastline and wanted to do something “beach oriented” and we both agreed to go out of the norm from the common, “on the beach” shoot. So, yours truly suggested “a day on the CA coastline” kind of feel. I think we did just that! We began in Newport Beach on the Balboa Peninsula and worked our way down south towards Laguna Beach. I approached this shoot from an editorial point of view, as I usually do, however, I worked extra hard to pull of some nice props as you’ll see.

I must say that Michelle did her homework and found some fabulous attire at Neiman Marcus, had her hair and make up done right and she looked amazing! Thanks you two, I look forward to your wedding day, it’s going to be incredible. Michelle and Tim are going to be married in September at the wonderful Seven Degrees.

Check out the slide show from the party! If you don’t see yourself in the slideshow, don’t fret, you’re in the gallery of images. Click on the toolbar at the bottom of the slide show and go to the “purchase prints” tab, that will take you to the Pictage gallery.

Thanks again to all who joined us on April 2nd for the “April Sounds Like Images Celebration.”

The Men’s Issue of Riviera Magazine is on news stands now, and guess what??!! I’m in it… that’s right, I am a Man of Style! Check me out, wearing a Prada jacket. I feel way too comfortable in a $3,500 suit! To see better images, and the full spread you can see the entire issue here. (go to page 92 to see me!).

The photos were taken at the Peter Blake Gallery, located on Ocean Ave. in Laguna Beach. If you are coming down for Artwalk tonight stop by Peter’s place, it’s beautiful. Hope to see many of you tonight at the gallery, we are displaying large format prints of my images and I can’t wait for you to see them!
