los angeles wedding photography - cafe pinot

10.19.09

Last month I had the great pleasure of working with the talented Rachel Thurston at one of her weddings. It was so nice to be a second shooter at a wedding for once. No pressure, no list of shots to get, just look for different angles and shoot something different. AWESOME. I loved it. And working with Rachel and her husband Grant was first class. They are bad-to-the-bone and I hope to work with them in the future.

I started the day out shooting the groom with his family at Cafe Pinot before the ceremony. The families and friends in attendance were some of the nicest people ever. Everyone greeted us with a smile and went out of their way to make us feel appreciated. I'm glad I could be there.

Ceremony: Cafe Pinot - Los Angeles

Portraits: Biltmore Hotel - Los Angeles and Disney Concert Hall - Los Angeles.

Photographer: Rachel Thurston

2nd Photographer: Mike Cunningham

newport beach wedding - 365 day after session

10.01.09

Dave and Vanessa just plain rock. That's all there is to it.

I shot their engagement photos over a year ago, but was unable to shoot their wedding. Long story short, they wished I had been there so much, they hired me to "reshoot" their wedding photos.

The day we went to shoot at the Newport Beach Temple, the light kept changing on us, but in a good way. One minute the light would be awesome, then it would change to EYE-gasmic. We couldn't have picked a better day. Enjoy.

They met in Hawaii, got married in Newport Beach, and now live in Costa Rica. I hate [envy] them both. Here's what they look like in case you run into them in other exotic parts of the world.
