It took Jane and Brett quite a while to make their album image selections, but I'm excited that they now have a new family heirloom - a killer, 100 image custom wedding album! They kept the outside simple: black, one photo on the front, one photo on the back and no titles on the spine or cover. On the inside, they departed from tradition and went with the lighter feel of pastel pages chosen specifically to compliment any given page's photographs.
 

Brett's mom had us put together a nice little 20 image album for her, too. I love that she chose a totally different cover color because it would work better in her home this way:

It has been awesome working with you, Jane and Brett and I wish you guys nothing but happiness!

Rachel and Keith got married at their home church in Oxnard, CA before heading over to Saticoy Country Club, in beautiful Somis, CA, in Keith's grandfather's sweet black Thunderbird. Here are some beautiful wedding day portraits of this awesome couple:

Cherie and Chris were recently married at Maravilla Gardens in Camarillo, California. Cherie loves flowers and chose the perfect venue to be surrounded by a natural, garden setting. Her floral dress and purple shoes were a great fit as well. Cherie even created the table centerpieces for their reception.

Cherie and Chris love their dog, Jasper, and made him an honorary attendant.

Congratulations Cherie and Chris. God bless your marriage. I wish you great success and happiness!

May the road rise to meet you.
May the wind be always at your back.
May the sun shine warm upon your face.
And rains fall soft upon your fields.
And until we meet again,
May God hold you in the hollow of His hand.
- Traditional Irish blessing

Thanks to their other vendors:
Delicious, professional catering for their wedding was provided by Command Performance. Their videographers, Buckley Videography, were really great to work with.

Christina and Evan's wedding was in beautiful Pasadena, CA. The Bride, Groom and their friends got prepared for the big day at The Westin Pasadena, which is walking distance from the amazing ceremony and reception site - Pasadena City Hall. The setting was incredibly romantic. What a day!

My wife and I just saw the new Indiana Jones movie, and the final scene of the movie was shot in a location that looked instantly familiar to me. I realized right away that it was the Fist Christian Church of North Hollywood where I photographed Jane and Brett's wedding last September.

Look familiar?

I know it's kind of silly, but growing up in the L.A. area and living nearby my entire life, I've always loved it when I recognize a location used in a movie or on TV.

More of Jane and Brett's wedding photography can be seen in the gallery.

Just recently Janna and Mark picked up their finished wedding album. Their wedding was at Calamigos Ranch in Malibu, CA on one of the hottest days of 2007! This couple, their friends and family didn't let the heat get in the way of a beautiful, fun wedding, and neither did we.

Janna and Mark's custom wedding photography album features over 100 photographs from their big day, and as always, the design rocks! Check it out:

Hey friends! So, I finally got on-board with this blogging revolution (fairly reluctantly I might add!). I think it will be a good new addition as it will give me a forum to post things that may not fit into the format of the main website.

I plan to use the blog to post interesting images, fun stories about photo shoots, new happenings, possibly even tips & tricks I happen to pick-up, etc.

Well, enough for the intro...

I'd love to know what you think of the blog.
