Jessica & Brad | Married

Jessica and Brad shared their most special day with friends and family among the roses in Petaluma this past weekend. The love they have for each other is evident in every photo, and I was truly honored to be a part of this beautiful moment in their life. The wedding had it all, a hot rod, tea ceremony, countless roses, top shelf drinks, and cupcakes... what more could anyone expect? Congratulations to Brad and Jessica! Please enjoy...

Jones Family

The members of the Jones family were all smiles at our photoshoot last weekend for a very good reason... a new baby girl is on the way! I am so happy to share in these special moments with expecting moms, dads, and siblings... it is always nice to see a sweet family grow.

Presidio Dance Theater

The Presidio Dance Theater made a special guest appearance in the 2009 Assyrian Food Festival in Ceres, CA. What an awesome addition! This dance troop is filled with amazingly talented young people from all over and was simply a joy to watch. If you have children in San Francisco, you should really be considering this organization for them. Please check them out: http://presidiodance.org/

Mercedes and Tien's Wedding

I had the honor of shooting this sweet wedding with my good friend and unofficial official mentor Jason Lee. Mercedes and Tien are an awesome young couple who share a love that is evident in the pictures below. Please enjoy them!

The Bridge is Back

The bridge was so quiet yesterday it almost seemed as though it wasn't there... it is always an odd feeling when one of the most heavily used transportation mediums is closed, the booming echo of cars & trucks passing overhead is a part of the normal urban landscape for this waterfront neighborhood. While we will miss the gift of peace and quiet the bridge closure gave San Francisco... we welcome back familiarity at its opening.

Thanks Mom!

So my Mom made it out to my photo booth this weekend in San Jose... I had set up a softbox and was taking pictures of my patrons. Not to sound biased, but I really think her photo came out pretty awesome considering the casual setting we were in. Thanks for the support Mom!

Translation

This was probably the funniest conversation I heard all weekend. The two Assyrian boys in the costumes were explaining the greatness of Dolma (tasty little meat and vege filled grapeleaf wrapped dinner food) to a young Indian boy, in the yellow. He had no idea what they were talking about, but listened since they had feathers in their hats.
