Welcome to my blog! I’m a photographer based in Orange County, California. Wedding photography is what I specialize in but I love capturing ALL the special moments life has to offer! This blog serves as my online journal where I’ll post pictures from my most recent photo shoots, share my favorite “YouTube” videos, post adorable pictures of my dogs (yes, I’m one of “those” people), and talk about anything else I feel like! Take a look around…I hope you enjoy your time here!
Last family portrait of the year! What better way to end the season then with my friend Jane & her family? I’ve known Jane for over 20 years…wow…I can’t believe it’s been that long! I remember being a little kid looking up to Jane because I thought she was so cool and now here we are and she has three beautiful children…time flies!
Here are just a few favorites from the day…enjoy the weekend everyone!
Don’t they make such a beautiful family?!
Julian…such a cutey pie! Very serious this little one…
Jordan…he is going to be a heart breaker when he grows up!
Jordan loved throwing the leaves in the air!
Jayden…look at that face!
This picture makes me smile…so sweet! Look at how little they look compared to the tree?
Model in the making :-)
I LOVE this shot of Jordan!!
Mom & Dad…can’t forget them!
Running circles around little bro! How cute is her outfit!?

Everyone in their Christmas outfits…love it!
Jennifer N: Small world! I know n love Jane too. You shot my close friends Andy and Lauren's wedding. My daughters were the flower girls and husband was the best man!

Charisse & Patrick’s wedding at the Riviera Country Club!
January.11.2012 | Weddings
Last wedding of the year on the last day of 2011! What better way to ring in the new year than to celebrate with one of my couples?! It was a beautiful, some-what foggy day which made the day just a little more magical :-) Some of my most favorite moments were : 1. Patrick shedding a tear (or two) when he saw Charisse walking down the aisle AND when he was saying his vows 2. Patrick doing a little jig after Charisse and him said their vows and the priest saying “hold up…not done yet!”…lol 3. Patrick thanking Charisse during their toasts and he called her his better 15/16th’s (instead of better half)….how cute is that?
Charisse and Patrick…thanks so much for sharing your day with me! I had SO much fun with you guys…I can already tell that your marriage will be filled with many many laughs…one of the most important things in a marriage! You guys are off to a fantastic start :-)
Now for some highlights from the day!
You know your marriage is off to a great start when your room number is this (for you youngins’ who may not know this, 143 was “pager code” for “I love you” circa the early 1990′s :-)
Charisse’s Badgley Mischka shoes were perfection!
Loved their black and white damask letterpress invitations! These are so me…
This is one of my most fav ring shots I’ve ever done…I love it!!
I loved her dress…and this bed! The decor at the Lux Hotel on Sunset is to die for…
Snapped a few bridal portraits before the ceremony!
Love how happy Charisse looks walking down the aisle!
The St. Monica Catholic Church is definitely of my most favorite church’s I’ve shot at…the lighting was beautiful and suiting for the holiday season!
LOL…right after Patrick did his little jig and the priest was all “not so fast buddy!”….lol
For some reason I just love this shot!
The new Mr. & Mrs.!
The fog is a little light here but 20 minutes later and it was super thick! We made it just in the nick of time!
Love the bright pinks in the bouquet!
The ballroom at the Riviera Country Club was perfect!
The reception details were just beautiful!
LOL…Charisse fed Patrick some cake and then immediately fed herself. LOL…the coordinator had to remind her that Patrick was actually supposed to feed her…love that!
LOL…there were guests that flew from all over the world and Patrick mentioned nearly every state & country….and even the Rocky Mountains…lol…one of my all time fav moments ever! LOL….rocky mountains…you are a riot Patrick!
