So two weeks ago I decided to take a week off from posting. Of course that came back to bite me as  last week my site (along with apparently many others) was attacked. Stupid Hackers kept us busy all weekend with nonsense. Thankfully it appears we have finally found the source, and have eradicated the […]

I’ve known Kamrin since we were both in grade school so it was really exciting for us to get together again for her Newport Beach portrait photography session.  I had a chance to work with her back in 2010 for her senior portraits, but personally this session was wayyy more fun! I wanna start this […]

The very first night Ben and Nadine met, they knew it was something special. Maybe they couldn’t quite put their finger on it, but they knew. Time has only reinforced this feeling. They decided on a winter wedding last month, and Nadine, like any bride was nervous about what the weather would be like, but […]

I met Kelly and Dave down recently for their Seal Beach family portrait session. It was a freezing cold January afternoon with the ocean breeze blowing everyone’s hair every which way. We wandered up to the pier bundled in layers of clothing, hoping the weather wouldn’t completely overtake our photo shoot. I’ve known this family […]

I was sitting at my computer scouring my hard drives for some photos to add to my website. I went back – allll the way back. Seriously, there’s not a folder I didn’t flip through. About halfway through my search I came across an album of images that I had all but forgotten about. And […]

  I thought it would be nice to take a look at some of the best moments in 2012 while I finalize a few last minute tweaks for the article about wedding photography costs. Here’s a look at some of my favorite moments and captures from this past year! I’m very excited for this new […]

Not long ago I joined an online community called SnapKnot that helps brides find and connect with photographers in their area. It’s a great site for brides to log on and compare the work and cost of photographers side by side. They also feature great articles and tips about wedding photography! I’m very excited to […]

Photographing families is always fun because there’s such a variety of photos that can be taken, as well moments that can be created. A couple of weeks ago I met the Decker Family at a park in Orange County for their Family Portrait Session. I had the kids show up a little earlier than the rest […]

I had the pleasure of meeting up with Ben and Nadine for their Laguna Beach engagement photography session recently. While we were there they told me the story of how they met: “I met the perfect person for you!” We’ve all heard it before. A helpful friend wants to introduce us to a friend of […]

I was never very good at sports. PE was complete and utter torture for me. Last kid picked on teams? No, not me, I was always second to last because at least I wasn’t drooling on myself.  My own mother referred to me as “athletically challenged.” When it comes to sports, I stick to my […]
