This was a really fun shoot! Erin is a lovely girl who is making a CD called "Four Corners." She wanted four different looks for the front of her CD, but with each look she wore a pair of bright red heels. We did the shoot at Union Station Downtown.

alma & jim
For today’s wedding I traveled again to San Francisco for a wedding at the lovely Sir Francis Drake Hotel. Being on their preferred vendor list, I shoot there a lot!
This wedding was just so perfect; the stunning church, nestled amongst the modern city-scape, was built in 1913 and is a historical landmark. What really struck me, however,were the bright orange roses Alma chose for her bouquet, and how excited her adorable nieces were to be the flowergirls! Jim served in Iraq and wore his uniform for the ceremony. The couple was absolutley glowing with joy, and it was an honor to shoot their wedding.
I just love the expression on Alma's face when her new husband brandishes his SWORD to cut their wedding cake!!
I shot a roll of film to cross process as well. i just love the super saturation of colors here...I've decided to use the gorgeous shot of Alma looking out the window of her limousine as my new business card!

For today’s engagement shoot, Trisha and Travis wanted a real urban feel, so we decided to hang out at the 3rd Street Promenade for a few hours. They were so willing to just go with all my ideas...even kissing by the parking meters (which ended up being one of my favorites, btw!) The highlight for me was when they sat in my vintage BMW for the last few shots. What a cool couple. I can’t wait to shoot their wedding later this Fall!

My good friend and talented photographer, Jessica Verma, got married today! My good friend, Becker, shot her wedding and even though I attended her wedding as their friend, I couldn't help but shoot! She is so lovely and her wedding was gorgeous.

stefanie & josh.
Stefanie and Josh hired me over the phone because they were living in New York when they were planning their wedding. We met when they came to California to firm up some plans and to do an engagement shoot with me.
They are the sweetest couple and were just so willing to have fun and go with all of my ideas on their wedding day! Also, I'm happy to announce that after seeing the slide show I put on during Stefanie and Josh's reception, their friends, Mandy and Tim hired me to shoot their wedding next year! (Check out their engagement portraits here!!)
Here are a few of my favorites from the day
I also decided to bring along my holga for fun, and I really love how this photo came out with all the cool flare!
