Headshot Get Together - Part 2

Here are some more images:

Headshot get together!!

As I am going through the images I decided that I would post a couple. Thanks for a wonderful shoot. Everyone was great!!!

Andrea and Mike's Wedding

Andrea and Mike are absolutely awesome! These two had a great wedding and I loved being apart of their special day. They got married at the Mission Inn in Riverside. I really love this place for many reasons. One of many being this is where me and my wife got married. The hotel has some of the most beautiful architecture that I have been fortunate enough to photograph. Here are some of my initial favorites from their special day.

Back from Blogging Death!!!

So many things that I have to blog about. Some of the recent events are Vacation, WPPI, [b]school party, and of course my next blogging topic "Andrea and Mike's" wedding at the Mission Inn in Riverside.

Sunrise..

As so many times I include a picture of the sunset from the particular day. I decided today since I was up and out driving early enough that I would pull over and get a picture of the sunrise. Here are a few images from my adventures this morning.

Abby and Ollie - Part 2 -

Here are a couple more images from the past weekend:

Abby and Ollie

I was first introduced to Abby many years ago when my wife attended law school with her. As the years have progressed I have always been impressed with Abby's warmth and kindness. So I was truly happy to hear that Abby had found such a great partner in Ollie. Abby and Ollie are truly one of the most amazing couple I have ever met. I hope that we are blessed with them in our lives for many years to come. Here are a few images that were taken Saturday:



San Diego train station...
As we approached sunset the sky turned really beautiful...


The spitting fountains...
So adorable...

This is before they relaxed.... :-)

This is afterwards...I think Abby has found the partner she wants...
More images to come but these are a few of my early favorites.

New Camera!!!

Well, after a long debate and a close decision I have decided to go with the "Nikon D300" as my new camera. I am not ready to make the move to a "Nikon D3" yet but hopefully someday soon. Also, under close consideration was the "Canon 5D". So, hopefully this week I will be ordering my new camera!!!!

Valentine's Day

So once a year we all gather to acknowledge the special someone in our lives. For me this is my lovely wife Julia. She is the one, who has helped me in so many ways, that I struggle on a daily basis to find the words to thank her. So this is one of the days in the year that we can specifically thank those who have done so much for us. So I posted the images of a few of the things I bought for Julia:


Ok well maybe there is going to be one more item a Canon 28mm f/1.8:

[b]school

For those of you who haven't heard, which I doubt there are many of you, BECKER is starting a new school called [b]school. First off Becker is so amazing!!! He, along with many others like Jasmine, has done so many things to help other photographers to succeed at creating great images and run successful businesses. Thank you for all that you have done!!!

Amazing New World!!!

Well, it happened on 02/01/2008 the first Production model available for sale in the U.S. arrived at Tesla's headquarters. This marks a milestone in its development. Although a couple of Quarters behind (which is very good for a start up Car Company) this electric vehicle is the first step in getting more all electric models on the road. Soon they will be delivering many of these vehicles to waiting customers!!! Happy Day!!!

WPPI - Las Vegas

Well, it is official we are going to WPPI in Las Vegas next month. Last night we booked our room at the Paris and will be going for 3 days. We decided to go out March 16th-18th. Looking forward to seeing everyone there!!!!

Joe Photo Video

This video was recommended by Melissa McClure. Extremely funny!!!

Lass Family Portraits

Steve, Elica, Spencer and Gaven were absolutely great, the two kids loved to be in front of the camera, which made these family portraits great. Here are a few of the images:

Wedding Wire

As I grow as a "Wedding Photographer" I am trying to emphasis on getting better exposure for my services. So, just recently, I added my business contact information to “WeddingWire”. This is a great tool for brides to research wedding vendors and read reviews from other brides who have used these vendors. I personally prefer this site to “The Knot” because as the knot has grown over the years and has become overwhelming.

Beautiful sunsets after storms!!

Since I was out and about today around sunset I decided to make my way to the beach. The sunset for those of you who live in southern California was gorgeous! Here are a few of the images from tonight's sunset:

Trash The Dress - Part 3 -

I have finally made it through most of the photos and here are a few more:

Rainy Days!

As it looks like we are headed for a weekend of rain, I will be spending sometime indoors, trying to finish some of the projects that for one reason or another haven’t been completed. I guess that’s why they call them rainy day projects. Although, would much rather be in Hawaii as my better half is currently there. More pictures to come as I will have a good amount of time to edit photos this weekend. As far as shoots go there will be no shoots this weekend due to rain.

Finally a few Vacation Pictures

During the holidays my wife and I were able to get away for a week on Vacation. So after much delay here are a few of the pictures:



Here is julia getting exercise:




This is the sunset on our last night aboard the ship:

This was one of many of the sailing tours in St. Thomas:

This lovely picture is the sunset as we were leaving San Juan. If you haven't guessed by this point I really like sunsets!

And last but not least this is our wonderful transportation for the week:

Trash The Dress - Part 2

As I continue to sort through the images from this wonderful event I decided that I would post a few more. Here are a few of my favorites:
