Zipadee Doo Dah

Had a grand time at the Happiest place on Earth. Was shooting a wedding with a fellow photographer, (Tony Shreiber) and decided to take the family with me for once. He and his family were extremely generous. We shared a hotel suite and they were kind enough to allow us the room with the jacuzzi. OH MY GAWD was it awesome. I spent about 10 hour over the course of the 3 days in it.

The wedding was on a Thursday and we arrived on Monday. Lots of first for my family.:

My wife, Monica and Ethan's first time in Florida.

All 3 of our first time in Disney World.

Ethan's first roller-coaster.

To Tony, Maggie, Alex & Max, Thank you for being so kind to my family. You showed us a grea, GREAT time. Ethan will never forget you. :) The only downside was leaving "Goog's" with family. We missed you bub.
Ethan's first Roller-Coaster. By the look on his face it's certainly not his last.


The Wifey. :)

Chicks dig scars
Ethan's expression just makes me die. I LOVE IT.

The Disney World Wedding :: Orlando Florida

Shot another one with my man Tony Shreiber. This time around I was able to bring the family. Look for a "family post" here real soon. We had family vacations being our first rip to Disney World. SO AWESOME!! Tony you are a great host.

For all my readers that live in Florida, I ask the question, WHY? So yeah, Disney World is there, granted but 102 degrees at 11:00 PM??? Good lord it was hot. Crazy hot. Too hot for humans. The wedding was really awesome however. Such a good time. Most all the guess were Canadians. Yay Canada!!

Thanks for the look guys. Love peace and hair grease.

When you see it..........





My boss for the day. Isn't this just so fitting. He shoots in the air conditioned room while I'm out side with mosquitoes the size of hawks. ;)

Tinna & Wally :: San Jose Engagement Session

Tinna and Wally hitch this coming October 31st. Yeah, Halloween. I about begged them to pass out Dracula teeth to the bridal party. Do me a favor and leave a comment below letting them know how crazwesome it would be.
This set was very fluid. Good match between these 2. They love each other. I know that's not deep but.......it is. Good chemistry between a couple is so cool.

Smoke in the last frame was provided by a smoke bomb. It's one of my everyday tools anymore. ;) Bomb was lit by Wally. Dudes got skills. Light, run and pose. Man of many talents folks

For those with wedding sets coming upo, thank you for the patience. It's gonna be a blog-a-thon in the next week.
10' is looking great as well. I think I'm shooting more out of California then in. :) I'm at 18 weddings booked. I plan on capping at 35 this next year. Come book while theres still ti.......

Thanks for the look friends. Happy Tuesday.

Robin & Chris :: Santa Cruz Wedding

Fire fighter and nurse. He saves em, she heals em. That's a wrap.

I think you'll be able to tell from the shots I got from this one that it was a party. Good peoples, good times. Felt like family even. Mom, (of the bride) even gave me a kiss on the cheek. **blushes** :)

Thanks for letting me hang out guys. I think we did pretty good in the photo department, yeah? ;) The GRILL. ahahahahahahaha! Best part of the day. Loved the beach shots as well. You guys are awesomeous maximus.

Gonna stop and thank my buddy Quan for a minute.
There isn't another photographer I'd rather have out as a second shooter then Quan. I've worked with the best there is and that is not taking away from ANY of them as they are all superb. I've flown them in to help me on about a dozen weddings this year. It's just, after you work with someone a while as me and Quan have, you just mesh. The dude knows what I'm thinking and has never dissapointed as a second shooter. He has become an intrical part of the team. His work and image IQ has taken massive leaps in the last year. Just uncanny.

You are superb at what you do bud. Thanks for being awesome. Brides, hire me first. If I'm not available, hire Quan. :)


Quan's. I LOVE THIS.
