I approached the crowd timidly, half hoping it was the wrong group so I would have an excuse to walk back to my car, wave the white flag and go home. I was already twenty minutes late and had alllmost ran over a peacock trying to find the spot in Irvine park that we were…
I met up with Ashley in Fullerton, her college stomping grounds, for her portrait session last month in celebration of her recent graduation. High school senior portraits are a big deal in the photography industry, but this was the first I’d come across someone looking for college graduation photos. I loved the idea and thought…
Last month I met with Jackie for her Old Towne Orange Portrait Session. We chose this location because of it’s urban, yet vintage environment. It was the perfect setting for Jackie’s portrait session. Every couple of years or so Jackie comes to me to have her portraits updated for her personal and professional (She’s an…
Not too long ago I met with Julie, Shawn and Noah for their Laguna Beach family portrait session. Like most families, Julie was really excited for family picture day, while Shawn and Noah were a bit skeptical. I reassured them that the idea was to just have a good time and in the process we’d…
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…

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…
