meet karen and nick. i photographed their wedding back on may 1, and due to time constraints and location issues, we decided to do a TTD (trash the dress) session from the get-go. this allowed us more time, to not have to feel rushed between ceremony and reception… it was perfect. ** for those of...

alexis & kirsten: graduating twins
last year i did a couple of mini-sessions for families down in laguna. during one of them, alexis was one of my assistants (you may have seen her here). alexis’ family decided they wanted to get some photos of the twin sisters (graduating from a high school right around the corner from where i live)...
stanton moore trio | belly up tavern, solana beach | concert photography
on wednesday, my brother told me we should go to this show that friday night. on thursday, i sent an email to stanton moore’s management (his site is here) to try and get a photo pass. things came together so perfectly and quickly, i could not believe it. i got to shoot at one of my...
goodnight beast | gallagher’s, huntington beach | concert photography
the world is a small place. i will just say that, instead of going through the explanation of how i know cole (the bassist/vocalist in this band). you can check them out on their facebook page. extremely talented all-around and i will be checking them out when they play, whether i have my camera or...
CUSD Strike 04.23.10
this was kind of a unique experience for me. though i see myself as one with strong beliefs, i have never been involved in a strike or anything of that nature. never picketed. never ‘walked a line’. never burned any undergarments to “stick it to the man”. one of my local school districts is entrenched...
emil & joanie: all you need is love (part 2)
i wanted to separate these two posts from this fantastical wedding or a good reason. as i said in the first part, i was originally hired with the idea of this being more of like “event photography”, than a normal kind of wedding. you got the wedding photos in the last post, now here is...

this has been a little while in the making. this post, not the baby. well… anyways… i best stop myself there. this is my new little nephew, born to my brother and his wife a few months ago now. i went over to their house a couple of weeks after he was born to take...
emil & joanie: all you need is love (part 1)
joanie was referred to me by a good friend (thanks again, gillian!!). it was always discussed as more of “event photography” than a wedding type day. they would be getting married in a small ceremony at their new home with family and a few friends attending. the reception and photos of everyone in attendance was...
laurie & dwight: holiday wedding
my communication with the bride over emails was fairly intriguing. the usual inquiries were made, details exchanged… and after some time, she hinted that we know each other. i had to rack my brain to recall all of the laura’s and laurie’s i have known over the course of my lifetime. when i was a...
