Peggy & Narong Meth | Maternity | Jeffrey Trail | Irvine, Ca

12.20.2011 – I would like to introduce you to two good friends of mine, Peggy & Narong Meth. They are two of the nicest people you will get to meet and both of them can cook up a real good meal. During one of our casual dinner meetings, Peggy and Narong gave us great news in that Peggy was pregnant with a baby girl. Fast forward 5 months and here she is, a couple of weeks away from the birth of the child. When asked if they have found a name for the baby girl, they told me that they were going to keep that a secret until she was born. So here we are on January 5th, a couple of weeks after I shot their Maternity shoot. I just happened to check on Facebook right before posting this post and guess what? They’re baby girl was just born.
Congratulations Peggy and Narong on your beautiful baby! Can’t wait to meet Avery Reese Meth!

Tu & Jordan | Wedding | DragonRidge Country Club | Henderson, NV

11.12.11 – For my first Las Vegas wedding, I had the privilege of assisting my good friend Brian Fletcher (http://brianfletcherblog.com) for the wedding of Tu & Jordan. We arrived early Saturday morning in preparation of Tu & Jordan’s big day. I had the opportunity to say hi to Tu but headed out to the opposite side of town to meet Jordan and the groomsmen getting ready at Green Valley Ranch Casino & Hotel. It was a blast hanging out with the guys as they retold stories of their pasts and recounted their many experiences together. Jordan was calm and chill, that is until we arrived at the beautiful DragonRidge Country Club and it was showtime. It was a beautiful afternoon in Henderson and the weather couldn’t be any nicer for their wedding day. Once the ceremony was completed, guests were treated to a reception that was filled with a small video introduction on Tu & Jordan. That was just the start of the night as the guests enjoyed the delicious food, drinks, and music that was provided that night. Thank you Tu & Jordan for being great hosts! It was an unforgettable night!


Chang Family Photos, The Shops at Dos Lagos, Chino Hills, CA

November 10, 2012 – I would like to introduce you to the Chang Family: Nancy, Andy, and little Ethan. Nancy contacted me with a request for some family photos and I was more than thrilled to be able to meet his lovely family. I met the Chang family at the Shops at Dos Lagos in Chino Hills. It was a nice calm beautiful November evening.

Ethan had just turned one and has just recently been walking. He had his afternoon meal and was eager to have fun with his mom and dad. I realized through both Nancy and Andy, the joys of having a child. They couldn’t stop smiling looking at their adorable one year old son. One thing I did find that Ethan really enjoyed was playing with the camera. I have a feeling this little guy might be an awesome photographer when he gets older. He even took two photos of his mom while playing with the camera. Check it out below. We stayed around and took more portraits until it was time for Ethan to get his evening nap. He was all smiles though throughout the day, he did a wonderful job!

Thank you Nancy, Andy and Ethan for taking time and allowing me to meet such an amazing, fun family.

Suzanne & Matt | Wedding | Heisler Park, Crown Plaza Resort & Hotel, Laguna Beach & Garden Grove, Ca

October 22, 2011 – I had spoken to Suzanne over the phone and through emails and instantly realized how nice and sincere she is. When I finally got to meet her in person on the day of her wedding, she was the sweetest girl you can have met that day, amongst the chaos of a wedding day. Matt was super cool and had a huge smile throughout the whole day.  Both of them had waited for this beautiful day to come and finally it was here surrounded by their loved ones.

The wedding ceremony took place at Heisler Park in Laguna Beach, on a cool over cast day. I was met by her three brothers, all of which were very laid back and fun. Family and friends gathered for a small ceremony over looking Laguna Beach. After having the ceremony, we headed over to the Crown Plaza Resort & Hotel in Garden Grove for the grand reception. With the bar flowing freely, live music entertainment, and delicious treats, all the guests had smiles throughout the night. Suzanne even came out with multiple dresses, every single one of them looking elegantly stunning. Congratulations once again Suzanne and Matt. Have a wonderful time on your Honeymoon to Moorea.  Take a lot of photos!

Karen & Ronnie | Wedding | Newport Beach Electra Cruises | Newport Beach, Ca

Sept 27, 2011 – Newport Beach, CA | Electra Cruises

I have have seen yacht weddings on other photographers websites but I had yet to partake in one. Luckily, that didn’t take too long as I was fortunate enough to be an associate photographer for my good friend and colleague Brian Fletcher.(http://brianfletcherblog.com).
Upon arriving at the hotel where they were getting ready, I first met Karen, while she was getting her makeup done. She was filled with so much joy and happiness on this day. Within 1/2hr the guys arrived at their suite to get ready. I met Ronnie, the groom, along with all his groomsmen and friends. It was a packed room but everyone managed to get ready and preparty before the ceremony.
The night started with a beautiful ceremony on the yacht over Newport Harbor, then a fun filled reception that included great food and a lot of dancing. Congratulations Karen & Ronnie!
