Not to say that Jennifer was jumping the gun a bit, but when I met with her during our initial consultation, the man she wanted to devote the rest of her life to was nowhere to be found. Okay, that’s not entirely true. Okay it’s not really true at all but it’s not like he was working late across town either. Oh no, Anthony was more than 7,500 miles away in Australia waiting for his US Visa to arrive 3 weeks later.
Luckily on the 8th of December Anthony did in fact land at LAX and all was right in the world for both Jennifer & Anthony. So right in fact that the very next Sunday we headed down to the San Juan Capistrano Mission in Orange County and had a great time capturing their E-Session. If you’ve never been there, the Mission is truly a must-see. It’s like stepping back in time with its authentic architecture, rustic structures and immaculate grounds.
Jennifer and Anthony don’t look too shabby either huh?!!!
I have photographed my friends Christiné and Tom’s family for 3 years now and I’ve loved it because each subsequent year, there’s a new member to their family. This year Christiné says that’s it … they’re done adding to the family tree. Well, we’ll see!!
First there was Erik & Jackie.
Erik just loves it when I make him do things like this.
Then came Saige and finally Alex. Hmm, I must have cropped sweet Saige’s halo out which was surely right above her head.
Now, I know I have a fairly busy schedule, but when Saige had to hold up the whole shoot just to text her manager, I found out who the real boss was on this shoot!!
Okay this lasted about 3 seconds, but I think we got a keeper.
Christiné and Tom share some quality time.
While we did get some others with little Alex looking “perfect”, I just LOVE the expression on his face in this one. That tells you exactly what he thought of my flash going off in his face!
Alyssa's mom Missy made and printed all the programs, they were gorgeous
Alyssa didn't really need hair and make-up, but whatever 
We can't forget the details!
Even though Alyssa & Augustine got ready in the same room, this was one of the most emotional "first viewings" I've ever witnessed.
Do you think they look a little happy?

Their journey begins
The wedding slideshow below was not shot by me but by Romain Blanquart of the Detroit Free Press. I thought this was just so moving and wanted to share this story. Amazing images and amazing couple.
At first, you might think this is a very sad story. As I reflected on it more, I really feel that it’s a story about true love, courage, perseverance and another reminder that it’s not about how long we’re here, but what we do with our time while we’re here.

Some things are just too important not to share.
Okay, I know I’ve totally been slacking on the blog updates lateley. I’ve been totally immersed in Hi Res video capture for the last month or so and I must say, I’ve been having an absolute blast. I attended the Collision Conference in August at the LA Film School in Hollywood and it was so awesome to see video collide with stills and the new “art” to come about through this emerging technology.
I realize we’ve had HD video for some time and 21 megapixel cameras for some time but it’s all starting to collide in new ways. Ways that incorporate both technologies in one communication piece.
Well, after attending the conference I was inspired to try a little “Living Art” myself. The Art that you see below is a 16 second video of Natalie that is part still photo and part video at the same time. My friend Jeb was shooting Natalie for her Sr. Portraits in Sedona and invited me to tag along. I snuck in a grabbed some stills and video when and where I could. See what you think.

There are processionals and then there are entrances. This would be an entrance. What fun!!!!
