    Christine & Scott’s Wedding Album

    I love the weight of a beautiful heirloom wedding album. The thickness of the leather cover, the luster of the flushmount spreads. Christine and Scott’s wedding was gorgeous in this 36-spread book. Perhaps the best testimony to the impact of an album? Words from the groom himself: Well, you never cease to really impress us….

  • San Diego | California Coasting, Part 11

    We have finally reached the grand finale of my California Coasting solo road trip: San Diego! Over the course of one week, I drove about 1300 miles and made twenty or thirty-some stops along the way, generating this slew of eleven different blog posts. I love the sense of adventure and space for reflection that…

    Eric’s mom hadn’t even made it halfway down the aisle to her seat when the she set off the avalanche of tears. When Eric saw her, he started. Then the wedding party started. By the time Cami came down the aisle, the whole wedding had melted into a pile of happy tears. That pretty adequately…

    La Jolla | California Coasting, Part 10

    And finally, my solo road trip reaches San Diego! After a lovely lunch with my friends Wayne & Angela, I headed back toward the ocean for a visit to La Jolla (pronounced La Hoya). I think I may have found a little slice of paradise. When I walked over to the prohibitive-looking cliffs, a friendly…

    After a couple days in LA, I decided to finally head even further south, extending my California Coasting road trip. For all the trips that I have made to LA, I have never actually gone the extra two hours to visit San Diego. Of course, I made just a couple stops along the way in…

    This session was full of laughs and sweetness. Kerry, a teacher, and Erik, an actor/comedian/writer, were visiting from Los Angeles, and I had such a fun time with them, shooting in San Francisco’s Mission District and at Crissy Fields.   Related posts: Christine & Yang | San Francisco Engagement Photography Cindy & Joey | San Francisco…

    Pasadena & Alhambra | California Coasting, Part 8

    I visit the Los Angeles area almost once a month, sometimes for work but most often for no reason at all. I treat it like my second home. Kevin is not only my friend and business partner, but he and his wife Jenny and our other friends in LA are like family to me. So…

    Ventura | California Coasting, Part 7

    In my first two days of solo roadtripping, I met lots of interesting people and awesome animals, but it was quite nice to arrive in Ventura and be reunited with a human being that I actually knew– my Seaglass Cinema partner Kevin! I still don’t have a good grasp of what Ventura is all about, but…
