Yes! It only took me a week to get to Jane & Griffin part II posted! (gosh I’m slow).  This next series are some of my favorite environmental portraits of J & G and the ceremony.  The Palm Springs light was fantastic!  Jane and her flower girls went for a walk to The Parker lemonade stand for a little pre-ceremony sugar high.  Jane’s nephew George is the man! As the featured musical guest, he picked up his violin, and then,the brief moment where you wonder what on earth he’s going to play…then….WHAM….the theme to Star Wars (mind blowing).  Jane’s tears roll down her cheeks and I wanted to yell “YA GEORGE!” but, I was able to restrain myself. Jane’s Father, a sweet heart of a man, officiated the ceremony . What a proud daughter Jane is, you can see it in her eyes as she walked with him down the aisle.   Enjoy these and up next is the reception, and my morning after shoot with them.  Turn in next year, I mean this week to see the final images.   p.s. I love the blurry black and white image of them kissing, I took right after the ceremony…can you feel it?


I’ve known Becky since I was born, or maybe just before that.  It’s a bit of a blur, but I’m pretty sure we did several junior high and high school camps together.  We hadn’t talked and then out of no where, “hi It’s Becky and I’m getting married.”  The  wedding day was like stepping into an awesome time warp where every time I turn around with my camera I’m realizing it’s someone I knew in another lifetime.

Becky found this really good guy named Brady.  He’s…well, a really nice guy.  It’s always amazing to reconnect with someone, get to photograph their wedding AND see them married someone super cool. Congrats you two!

p.s. Their wedding was at Vanguard University and Reception at El Adobe, so we got some good shooting time by the train station and Los Rios St.

Jessica and Dan choose one of the most beautiful places on earth for their wedding and it was…epic.  Jessica and the girls got ready at Villa Cimbrone (home to many celebrity weddings), the ceremony was held at Villa Eva, and the reception over the water Torre Normanna The weather was absolutely perfect and the food was incredible.  I can go on for days about this experience but you’ll probably get a better idea by watching their video.   Thank you again to you both, I am so grateful that we were able to document your wedding!

This is the slide show of my work with Stephanie and Niels at the most amazing Villa Catignano in Tuscany.
Stephanie is an amazing interior designer and we met several years back at my contemporary art gallery.
She and Niels decided they were to be married in Tuscany and I was thrilled to be back in Tuscany shooting their
wedding.  I love to travel and to travel with fabulous people!  Ariel and I had an incredible time on this trip shooting photography
and video both, their wedding and Jessica and Dan’s wedding in Ravello, Amalfi Coast (Coming soon).
Enjoy the slide show!

This video is one of my favorites to date! It’s one of our 8-10 minute edits and I think it really tells the story well.
Thank you again to the couple and Smita at Ethnic Essence  for their amazing design!

Brittany and Lorenzo are an awesome couple and I’m so glad I was able to spend my time with them on their special day. Here’s a preview of what’s to come from the studio. I hope you enjoy them!

Here’s the slideshow for Jessica and Chris’ wedding, which was just a few weeks ago at the University Club at UC Irvine. Check out how beautiful Jessica looks, and be sure to keep an eye out for the bridesmaids’ boots. They definitely added personality to the wedding. I hope you enjoy watching it as much as I had fun putting it together.
