It’s such a privilege, and so much fun, to photograph weddings for friends. Though it had been quite a few years since Andrew and I had seen each other, our history of playing soccer together at Agoura High School made the job of photographing his marriage to Michelle that much more special.

Michelle and Andrew prepared for their wedding at the amazing Four Seasons Biltmore in Santa Barbara, California, where we also photographed the bridal party.

The wedding ceremony took place at an equally breathtaking private residence, with an ocean view, in the exclusive Hope Ranch neighborhood, on Santa Barbara’s mesa.

For the reception, we jumped over to the nearby Events by Stella Mare’s, where Michelle, Andrew, their family and friends had a great time partying on the dance floor and enjoying excellent food.

Michelle and Andrew, thanks again for the honor of photographing your wedding. I wish you both many years of happiness, health and blessings!

Adam shot Miko and Eli’s wedding at the Admiral Kidd Club in Point Loma. It was an absolutely perfect day to celebrate their joyous wedding with family and friends who came from all over the world to be with them. Don’t you just love their ceremony pictures? What a fantastic view of Downtown San Diego! Congratulations Miko and Eli.

So, almost a year ago to the day we posted Mika and Shane’s Japanese Tea Ceremony in Los Angeles. We are finally sharing their beautiful Orange County Wedding at the Pacific Edge Villa in Laguna Beach. Mika is one of the sweetest brides we have ever been lucky enough to know. So, we are so excited to finally show some of our favorite images from her and Shane’s beach wedding. Enjoy!

Wendy and Aaron live in Arizona, but will be getting married this fall at Calamigos Ranch in Malibu, California. They recently came out for a visit when I shot their engagement portraits at Venice Beach, CA. We had an awesome time exploring and highlighting the uniqueness that Venice offers. I have a lot of good words for this shoot, but one word sums it up pretty well: COLOR.

Steve shot Suzannah and Ty’s beautiful beach wedding at the Hilton San Diego Resort and Spa right on Mission Bay. It was a stunning location and an equally stunning couple!

I was so excited when my friends Pat and Elizabeth asked me to create portraits of their baby girl and the three of them together.

Pat and I were roommates in college at Brooks Institute of Photography in Santa Barbara and I photographed Pat and Elizabeth’s beautiful wedding in Monterey.

It’s been so cool to be a part of these major milestones in their lives.

Here’s more of Morgan and Brett’s engagement portrait session that our Facebook fans got a little sneak preview of right after the shoot. Morgan and Brett live in Idaho, but will be getting married next month in Malibu, at the beach and the beautiful wedding venue, Saddlerock Ranch. So, on their last visit to California, we planned to do these Santa Monica engagement portraits.

I feel blessed to have the opportunity to work with Morgan and Brett. They’re both awesome, kind people, and definitely make a great match! I had a blast spending the afternoon chasing them around Santa Monica with my camera.

We posted and wrote about the Sieders’ beach portrait shoot a little while back on our blog. Now, I’m really excited to share with you something our Facebook fans already got a look at; The end-result, this amazing eleven canvas, 50×70″ custom portrait installation:
