Heather & Dana

Heather & Dana were such a joy to shoot. You can tell how relaxed the whole day was. Things ran so smoothly. There's something about working with pregnant photographers that they are just so calm and collected. I love it. Dana and his guys were so easy going. Those guys have a lot of love for Dana and you can tell they were all super close. At the house with the girls was a very nice start to the day. Heather's girls were there for anything she needed. The emotions were high that day and I loved it. Dana was so overcome with love and care for his bride, he couldn't hold back his tears of joy. I especially loved this because it reminded me of the same way I felt as I too couldn't hold back my tears of joy for my bride on our wedding day. The ceremony was short and sweet. Their pastor was so real and held nothing back. A truly wise man he is. The reception was held at Dana's parents home just a few blocks from the park. A beautiful home over-looking the back bay in Newport Beach, CA. To top off the night...IN-N-OUT TRUCK!!! And a fry station! Geniuses these people. Almost everything was DIY by Heather. She did an amazing job and I'm thinking she should be a wedding designer. The dance floor was hoppin' with limbo & love. All in all it was a great day. Congratulations to you Heather & Dana. Also, a special thank you to Adam Pasion for writing this beautiful music for the movie. To check out more of his work or to purchase his music go here.

Enjoy!

Shizuko & Eros

So it's official, we're moving to New York in march. We now have new friends there and here's a little sneak peak of those new friends. Shizuko & Eros are two of the most generous, geniune, caring people I've had the pleasure of meeting. It was such a wonderful honor to be able to capture their wedding and make a movie for them. The ceremony was a traditional Greek Orthodox ceremony and was very intimate. Their reception was amazing! Shizuko has a cousin who is an amazing break dancer and Eros has a cousin who is an amazing Zembekiko dancer. They had a dance off and both were equally awesome. I will try to get a featured post with the footage from the dance off later. The food, the people, the couple, all were amazing and wonderful to take part in. Congratulations to Shizuko & Eros. A special thank you to Brandon Gatlin for writing this beautiful music for the movie. To check out more of his work or to purchase his music go here.

Melissa & Brett

I want to hang out with Melissa & Brett all the time. They are great! This was by far the most relaxing, mellow, easy going, beautiful wedding I've been a part of. The day just seemed to flow so well. Probably because Brooke Keegan coordinated. There were so many amazing details to this wedding and I wish they could all fit in the preview. Melissa & Brett are such a wonderfully sweet couple and had me smiling the whole day. Other than randomly knowing some longtime friends at the wedding, they made me feel like I was part of the family. A special thank you to Brandon Gatlin for writing this seriously beautiful music for the movie. He captured the feel of the day and helped make this movie amazing.

Lisa & Paul

I had a wonderful time shooting Lisa & Paul. They are so sweet, kind, caring, happy, excited, etc... I had the unique pleasure of working with the amazing Shanni Weilert, and her husband, my soulmate, Blaine Weilert. I have been friends with Shanni since college and it was nice to hang out with them again. The day was hot, but beautiful and the setting was gorgeous. Nestled down in a valley between the hills. A special thanks to Brandon Gatlin for writing this amazing music for the movie. To check out more of his work or to purchase his music go here.

Tomi & Chris

Tomi & Chris are such a joy to be around. They are both so kind, generous, loving, and genuinely care about people. I had an amazing time filming their wedding. The ceremony took place at Westminster Presbyterian Church in Pasadena, Ca. The same place that our beloved "Wedding Crashers" movie was filmed in. The Gothic architecture was unbelievable and inside was just as amazing! The reception took place at Tomi's parents mansion in the hills of Hacienda Heights, Ca. This place was gorgeous. Over looking the valley with fireworks going off in the distance. What a wonderful day. Congratulations to Mr & Mrs Seward!

Enjoy Their Movie!

Melissa & Alfonso

Melissa & Alfonso are a joy to be around. I had such a great time shooting this wedding. Union Station in L.A. is amazing and the reception hall is the perfect place for an event. I got to work along side some pretty amazing people this day. Amanda Auer from In The Now Weddings and Brandon Kidd who is an insane photographer.

Enjoy Their Movie!
