An adventure in Palm Springs

Finally I am getting around to posting some of the photos from my trip to Palm Springs. It was 114 in the shade. Sometimes vacationing in Palm Springs in the summer is brutal. I had lot of fun despite having to drink 2 cases of water to stay alive.


No This didn't turn out to be the most scenic thing in Palm Springs!

Nohea & Duncan -- Redondo Beach Wedding Photographer--

Given the crazy weather this past summer, Nohea and Duncan were extremely blessed with their beautiful day. Redondo Beach is one of our favorite places to photograph and that defiantly includes weddings. Their lovely reception was at the Seaside Lagoon in Redondo Beach. Their ceremony was Hawaiian inspired and the guys got to wear Hawaiian shirts and flip flops. What more could you ask for? Also the cake was made by the wonderful chefs at Lisa's Bon Appetit. It was a extraordinary wedding. Congratulations to Nohea and Duncan!!

Jinx's Headshots -- San Diego Headshot Photographer --

I had the wonderful pleasure of working with "Jinx" Carroll recently. She is the daughter of my brother's high school friend, Adriane Nodzak Carroll. Jinx did a fantastic job for her first professional photo shoot. It was a very very early morning in Chula Vista but we all had a great time and finished up with a fantastic late morning breakfast.

Adriane and I united through Facebook. You've got to love Facebook and reconnections with fellow high school alumni. Facebook has been fabulous at reuniting so many old friends. If you are on Facebook please add me! Thanks again to Jinx and Adriane. Jinx your beauty shines through!

Amy and Steve's Wedding -- Torrance Wedding Photographer --

Amy and Steve’s day was amazing. From the beautiful portraits at DelThorne Park to their lavender and blue themed wedding reception at the wonderful Double Tree hotel in Torrance, to their personalized menus displayed at the reception tables. We loved every minute of their wedding, but as always, and especially with this wedding it never really is about the location or the cool centerpieces, or the amazing outfits ( see the guys cool kicks ). For us it’s about the couples we get to work with. These two were so sweet and an absolute joy to work with. So without further ado, on with their wedding photos!

Georgio's Pizza, always a winner

Starved as we were, we went to one of my favorites; Georgio's Pizza. Always great pizza but this time I went with the calzone. A yummy blend of mozzarella, ricotta, pizza sauce, mushrooms, artichokes and feta cheese. A wonderfully thin crispy crust made this calzone shine. Kristine had the chicken strips and a diet coke. How could you go wrong? So here are a quick couple of food photographs from lunch. I recommend this place to everyone. Best part is, THEY DELIVER!!
