Giovanna and Scott | August 27 | Engagement


Giovanna and Scott enjoyed the surf Sunday afternoon. Their wedding will be in Philadelphia so they wanted the engagement photos on the beach-and on the beach it is!

Tina and Nick | Catamaran Resort | August 26


It was a beautiful day on the Bay at the Catamaran Resort for Tina and Nick’s wedding. They are such a nice couple that is fun to work with. The party went well into the evening- the toasts cannot be repeated here! Props to: videographer (or ‘filmmaker’ would be more appropiate) Jason Taylor of Taylor films did a great job of unobtrusive video coverage. Custom creations by Nora (ccbynora@adelphia.net) made everything go smoothly and of coursed DJ Mike Farmer kept the party going! Check back on Thursday for the completed album design!

Mary and David | August 24 | Engagement


Mary and David will be getting married at St. James Church in Solana Beach followed by the reception at The Del Mar Hilton this October 21.

Melissa and Steve | Hyatt Islandia | August 19


The ceremony was short and sweet, the party was loud and fun! The grand entrance was accompanied by AC/DC “Back in Black” followed by a slideshow of Melissa and Steve growing up. I didn’t even notice the extra hour I stayed to cover all of fun at the Hyatt Islandia.
The above photo I created in camera (Canon 5D, 24-70mm wide open @ 2.8) light source: street lamp. The only PS was adjusting the white balance and crop. Check back on Thursday for the completed album design!

Tina and Nick | Photo Shoot | August 11


Tina and Nick were nice enough to do another photo shoot with me so I could try out some new ideas I learned from my workshop with Jerry Ghionis and Bambi Cantrell. We then enjoyed a beer at Jimmy O’s in Del Mar.

Andi and Brian | August 9 | Engagement


Andi and Brian are having a beach ceremony in up in Northern CA, so this was a good oportunity to get there feet wet -picture of feet in water not shown :) They are my friends from Powerhouse Gym.

Ellen and David | Karl Strauss | August 5


Karl Strauss Brewery Gardens made for the perfect setting for Ellen and David’s wedding. They are so much fun to work with as they are always laughing about something-except of course during the ceremony, there were some tears. Check back on Thursday for the completed album design!
