Amy & Joe – kissy kissy… from their engagement shoot. This is a secret location that Kristi showed my. Kristi is another very good photographer who was my partner when she was getting started and she turned me onto walls! Now like her I am a wall expert. I can’t say where but this image was shot in a small hallway of a mall! People walk by constantly and we would have to stop. They were so funny. They wanted these types of shots but were not comfortable with the strangers walking by- so I guess they don’t usually dance and kiss in hallways!... And, Amy & Joe had never seen a picture of them that actually showed their different in height (like 10 inches). Aren’t they cute…

A fire alarm was tripped (somehow) during Mandy’s reception and these firefighters showed up! I got Mandy and Bobby for a shot. They Even gave Bobby a coat to wear too...

Nicole and Warren’s wedding. They touch heads to keep them from wobbling around while I take the picture. I love night shots and this is from the Nixon Library. Looks fake but its not and their reception was happening right behind Nicole
I thought this would be a fun shot for the couple to have.
Nicole’s dress- with Nicole in it! Her dress was so detailed and pretty and the feeling of the image with her hands in preparation I feel are simple and lovely. The B&W effect focuses attention as well. The lighting is bounced flash. This was a great wedding from the Nixon Library, very large, like 300 people! I have it online here
This was really a great wedding! At the time I took this I had know idea that basically EVERY bride would like this shot! I didn’t know girls like trucks so much. I drive a truck now. So that is Lynne & Ryan. Lynne had a baby last year! And she still needs to pick out her album pics…
From the Artineh & Sev engagement shoot- a fish eye shot of them - it turned out really cool! If you like this you should see their wedding Heather and I shot click here
Green green green… A cool glowing special effect and a big green container for a background - Artineh & Sev's engagement shoot. We can thank Sev for being sooo great in front of the camera, he can work it! Isn't he great making her smile like that – their wedding is really cool too. Heather and I shot that click here to see it
Sunset view of Palos Verdes. I know this is very traditional but it is also beautiful and couples like having these shots. They were so sweet too… we stood out on that freezing beach waiting for the right light for 20 minutes. YAY! Then we left.
