back online with a new website!

okay, so i'm getting emails again - and even better, my new site has just launched! check it out and give me your thoughts.

thanks!

no email.... :(

i'm in the process of launching my new website...but one of the casualties of this seems to be email. i can't receive any emails for the time being. so if you've sent one to me recently, please resend it when all's well - hopefully very soon. i'll post here when email is working again. if you urgently need to contact me, call 805.259.7955 or send a text to that same number. thanks!

thalia and brett's wedding at rose story farm

i was so honored to shoot thalia and brett's wedding at rose story farm. not just because they are both great folks that are easy to get along with, but also because they are both world class athletes that represented the united states at the 2004 olympic games in athens. they met at ucla where they both played water polo, and the rest as they say is history - inlcuding thalia winning a bronze medal at the games. did i say "wow!" yet? once you get past the whole "olympian" thing, you realize that thalia and brett are nice, genuine, kind, fun people and everyone at the wedding was having a blast! rose story farm arranged all the flowers, and i was thrilled to shoot at this beautiful venue. rose story farm is the top local grower of garden roses, so if you are having garden roses in your bouquet and you're getting married in the santa barbara area, then you'll like have some of their roses in your arrangement. the farm house was gorgeous, and obviously the grounds were beautiful.

karleanne and collin's wedding at the los angeles river center

it's always fun for me to shoot weddings at new locations, and karleanne and collin's wedding at the los angeles river center was a beautiful new experience for me. with lush gardens everywhere, it provided excellent background for this gorgeous couple. karleanne is a professional dancer and collin is in the air force and it was a joy to watch them during their first dance as they looked like prince and princess. they are both the easiest people to be around too.

also, thanks to my buddy geordie speake for shooting with me.
