after the success of our first family session day (as well as picking up some people who were out with flu or activities), gillian and i were sure we needed to organize a second day. first of all, you remember gillian from the last post, right? she runs <a href=”http://www.thewriteinvite.net/”>the write invite</a> in ladera ranch,...
as i drove westward to the beach for this shoot, somewhere in laguna canyon, i entered this thick blanket of fog. a misty fog. behind me were blue skies and sunshine. i heard it was cold at the beach, but did not expect such a fog monster to gobble me up. i text my wife...
i have actually been trying to get together with these busy-bodies for so long. it became almost urgent to finally work it out so we could get some photos done before their newest family member is born. which could be any day now. for those of you who do not know, this is my brother’s...

this has taken me far too long to get the second portion up. my apologies. this was my first wedding of the season this year… and due to the time crunch, we were unable to squeeze in an engagement session. we decided to get out for a sort of “trash the dress” shoot after the...
heather is an old classmate of mine, from elementary school. our families were friends well before the two of us ever met. so, when heather asked me if i could take pictures of her with her little girls i was quite excited… even just for the catching up we could do. we settled right...
after having shot her sister’s baby, i got an email from erika asking if i would be available while her family was in southern california. we decided to head down to the montage late one day for the best of both worlds of so cal outdoors (beach and kind of a park setting). one of...
so, this is how word of mouth works. you do photos for someone, they tell a friend about you and you do their photos for their christmas cards. they, in turn, tell their friend to check you out as their potential wedding photographer. bam! not exactly a math problem that good will hunting would be...
