We specialize in fine art documentary weddings – corporate and lifestyle stock imagery - and highly effective headshots for models, actors, and businesses. We are located on the border of LA and Orange County, about 20 minutes north of Disneyland. If you’re looking for the most up to date info, check out the various info pages along with some of our latest posts. For a more detailed portfolio, click on the website link at the top of the page. Although most of our weddings take place in the Los Angeles – Orange County area we love to travel. Santa Barbara and the bay area are perennial favorites. We are looking for couples who place a high value on photography and want something tailored to your vision and personality. We only accept 20 wedding commissions per year. This allows us to have a hands on, and personal approach to your photography and album design. Planning something interesting, we have 4 spots left for 2008 and we are booking now for 2009. Call for a consultation, we’ll set up a time to meet and customize something to fit your day.

Johanna and Sean volunteered for some experimental duty at the loft. In addition to the general stock advertising images we took some fun engagement portraits. The proofs are online and Johanna has the password. Enjoy!!!
Wedding season is upon us and we are starting to shoot engagement sessions. I met up with Jamie and Ted the last weekend of April for their session, and spent the late afternoon wandering around the Whitter College campus taking advantage of some interesting locations. The proofs are available for viewing at my ONLINE gallery . Jamie and Ted have the password. Enjoy!!
Just returned from Las Vegas where we were shooting the construction along the strip. To all you members of the Iron workers local, thanks for your help in identifying the men in the photographs and helping to get model releases so the images can be published. We are still three short. I’m posting their pictures here on the blog. More after the break……

We are adding Head Shots, Corporate and Stock photography to our services this year and we are looking for models, actors, make-up artists, or anyone who wants to trade time to work on some select projects in exchange for portfolio pieces. I’m extending this offer to all my potential brides also. I have a lot of requests for contemporary portraits for web use. If your willing to come in and play in the studio for a few hours, you can get some dynamite “FREE” engagement portraits. AJ and Christina were first to take me up on this offer. The subject was a little fun tension. Here are a few samples from the shoot. Anyone interested drop me a note and we can talk about concepts. Thanks.

Escaping frigid weather, AJ left med school, bound for warm weather, holiday fun, and a much needed reunion with Christina. While here, we met up at Descanso Gardens for their engagment shoot. I’m just starting the editing process, but I thought I’d post a few fun images while they wait. The rest should be online by the end of the week. Enjoy!!!

Our dear friend and neighbor Conny McCormack, Registrar of Voters for Los Angeles county retired at the end of the Year. Long time friends, co-workers, and election officals past and present, gathered for her official retirement party / ROAST on Jan 3rd!!! We were lucky enough to be invited to take part, and of course I took my recently aquired D300 for a test run. Even the Iowa caucauses couldn’t put a damper on this party!! Since so many flew in from around the country I’ve placed the images ONLINE for all to view and enjoy. Just drop Mick or Conny a note for the password. Enjoy!
We all wish Conny the best of luck on her new consulting adventures and we look forward to many a good giggle when she shows up as a talking head for CNN or heaven forbid; Fox News. YIKES!!

We are finally editing the images from our sojurn through Italy. If you’ve ever wandered the streets around the Spanish Steps the window displays from the large fashion houses can’t be missed!! For those interested in future trends, it looks like red is the new accent color. I don’t know if it will ever make it to this side of the pond, so here are a few images to peek your interest and imagination.

The Yahoo PhotoBooth made a surprise appearance at Mary and Jay’s fabulous wedding in Long Beach this past weekend. While we await the wedding images, I thought I’d upload the photobooth and give everyone a giggle. In honor of all the OC lawyers who participated, I’ve decided to officially change the name to simply; “MugShots”. Special thanks goes out to Dan and Jordan, who took control, wrangled the crowd and added their special touch to the evening. I have it on good authority that both are rethinking their carriers with a nod toward a future in photography; although Jordan told me privately his real dream is to “Direct”!! For all who wish to take a peek, the photobooth images are ONLINE under the heading “MugShots“. Mary and Jay have the password. Enjoy!!
