I really do love living in San Luis Obispo county! Snapped this shot with my camera phone on the way out of my office in Paso Robles the other night, what a beautiful place to live!

I just returned from 4 days of bike riding and goofing off out in Sedona Arizona with fellow San Luis Obispo wedding photographer Jonathan from Bluephoto.biz and Arizona photographer Riley of AplusRphoto. We had a great time and you can expect to see a bunch of fun photos sometime next week. I only brought my old Canon Rangefinder film camera so you all have to wait for the film to be processed and scanned…weird right!?
I’d love to be a Sedona wedding photographer so if you plan on getting married out there please give me a call as I’d love to spend more time in such a beautiful place!

What a great couple Thilani and Darren are! Here are a few shots from their wedding in Clovis a couple weeks ago. Harlan Ranch was a very nicely laid out planned community near the Sierra Foothills to the East of Clovis. The venue was beautiful, Darren and Thilani were great and the timing was perfect for the sunset! Seriously, they were the most laid back couple ever and just so completely in love, it was a blessing to be able to photograph them! I really love being a wedding photographer!


Before walking down the aisle Darren and Thilani had to post “We’re married!” on Twitter! lol!

Last summer I took Caiden (my son, then 3 years old) to the fair to see the animals (and some livestock too! lol) and I was thinking what a great spot it would be for an engagement session. So this year I was headed home from a Carmel wedding and saw the fair was getting setup and immediately knew that I had to get Mike and Amanda to do this! They are a super fun couple who live in San Francisco but are having their wedding at the Santa Margarita Ranch next summer. With their style I knew they would be perfect for all the fun and colors of the fair.
This is part one of two as we also shot last weekend around San Franciso in the rain! Having had this much fun at the engagement sessions, I can’t wait to see what a blast we have at their wedding!

Had such a great time getting to know Tamara and Joe a few weeks ago for their engagement session! Being a wedding photographer my favorite part of the job is making clients happy, but that is closely followed by just getting the opportunity to meet so many great people! Tamara and Joe were a ton of fun and their interactions with each other was so great to see. The wedding is just a few weeks away at the stunning One Fort Mason in San Francisco and we are expecting some beautiful weather!
The best part of the shoot was when we were talking about places to get a good view of the city at night and we talk through a couple locations before Joe says “Oh yeah, my office has a nice roof-top if you want to check it out.” We head up there and it’s stunning! Check out the shots at the end, there was even a giant sculpture of a heart!

Sarah and Ben’s wedding took place at Hastings House and was a gorgeous and intimate wedding in Half Moon Bay. Hastings House is a beautiful garden setting and the weather was perfect. Most of the weddings I photograph are 200 or more guests so it’s always fun to get to shoot a smaller wedding where I really get to know everyone and really feel a part of the day. Maybe it’s the intimacy or maybe it’s just because Stephanie and my wedding was very small but I had a great time! After the garden wedding ceremony at Hastings House we did a photo session then drove over to the Garden Court Hotel in Palo Alto. The hotel is a great spot for an intimate reception and the staff was wonderful. Sarah and Ben’s signature drink was flowing and the food was great! Sarah’s family came in from all over the US while Ben’s family came in from his native Australia so I had a great time getting to know everyone and thank everyone for being so gracious with me! And thanks for the VB, that was great! You have to love a bride in a birdcage veil! Downtown Palo Alto I loved the details! The ceiling lamps combined with my off camera lighting make some cool colors! This is one of my favorite Photojournalistic photo’s from the wedding. It shows Sarah and Ben dancing then each of the other couples is their parents, very cool!

Had an awesome time with Melanie and Nick, I love a good beach wedding! Here are a couple of my favorite images from their wedding on the beach in Cayucos.
