Jamie & Kimya

Jamie & Kimya are a fun loving and generous couple. T
This was taken right outside of the Long Beach Aquarium utilizing only the available street light. I love the mood and the contrast created by the environment.


Sexy headshot of the bride!! She's got the most beautiful and exotic eyes. No fake lashes needed..



Diva in training. This little laddy's cry for her mommy was the soundtrack during the entire preparation.

Grace Church - Long Beach

Matt and Sarah are extremely involved in their church community. This by far was the largest celebration we've participated with 400+guests.



They didn't need us for typical pictures such as cake cutting. Sarah and Matt had a full press court documenting their every move : )


We are more useful for something like this..


And, something like this....



Or, like this...


Matt and Sarah hired us for the purpose of creative portraits. We loved the challenge and the outcome.

Sarah & Matt

Here is a quick picture of Sarah and Matt from the weekend. They wanted something different, with more edge. Erin pulled out a 5 foot-profoto umbrella and a portable light kit. We were also very fortunate to get access to a private airport in Long Beach.

We love a good challenge. I think - this is the future of wedding photography, more editorial/lifestyle/rock n' roll/individualized. We as a generation are visually more sophisticated as we are exposed to so much of it.

With that said, people will still value good traditional family portraits as its often rare for people to get together with busy lives, except on these joyous occasions. In addition to creative photographs, we also spent 3 hours taking Sarah and Matt's family portraits on two separate location. We also concluded with one picture at the church with approx. 100 members of their extended families.

Carolyn & Josh - June 16

I like Carolyn the moment I met her. She is easy going and fun loving. Her smile is infectious. Josh is a very lucky fellow. Here are a few of my images ...

An overjoyed bridegroom with proud parents!

While some guests chilled by the fire pit...

others were at the dance floor.

Princess Courtney

Courtney and Erin got married at the Huron Sub Station in Highland Park, CA. http://www.huronsubstation.com/ The location was gorgeous, full of natural light during the day. In the evening, a perfectly placed street light lends itself to this film noir inspired image.

A perfect summer night wedding. The gelato cart was very popular.





Congratulations!!
