The sun finally came out on Saturday! Steve was thinking of rescheduling the session since the forecast was for rain-which usually means it will be sunny! I did some special effects on the color image. August 19th at the Hyatt Islandia stay tuned for more photos!

It was a overcast day at the beach and it did not keep Ellen and David from smiling! The wedding will have my favorite (local) microbrew on tap at Karl Strauss brewery Gardens August 5. Check out the slideshow! **CLICK HERE

Checked out a new nightclub in Little Italy- w/Tiffany.
Fun place! sushi and martinis. props to Bobby Reyes @EventVibe.

This time I was working on the other side of the camera to showcase the latest weapons developed for Special Forces. The day started at 0800 with a briefing at an undisclosed location-which looks alot like an Iraqi village complete with a gutted Huey and a Boeing 707.
The highlight was rappelling out of the chopper mounted from a crane.

Sara and Todd had a colorful wedding in the Spanish Village at Balboa Park. Just before the couple was introduced at the reception, a rainbow appeared! Merilee Norman of EverAfter Events helped make everything go smoothly.
Have a look at their storybook album **click here

Next year, I’ll burn it at both ends and go to all of the vendor VIP parties!

I’ll start my posts with the first wedding of 2006 Kim and Jim. Kim got ready at The Dana hotel since the ceremony was across the street at Marina Village . They met while working together and some coworkers in attendance were the last to know that they were dating!
