Destination Wedding + Portrait Photographer » Timeless and Elegant Wedding Photography

When I was a kid, I remember picking up my dad's old Canon AE-1 Program and just falling in love with the sound of that shutter going off. It was expensive to have photography as a hobby back then, but I worked part-time in high school and used whatever money I could save to pay for film and processing. I didn't know anyone else would be interested in my photographs until one day my parents told me they had submitted a photo I had taken of my sister for a local beauty pageant. My sister got in (placed 3rd), and a local musician loved the photo and paid to use it on his CD jacket. That was the beginning for me, but my life took me on a parallell road to photography. I studied film and cinematography at USC, and aftewards, spent 5 years in the industry. I rediscoverd my love for photography when my wife bought me my first digital SLR for my birthday. Suddenly, I saw the world differently and felt joy like a kid again. And when I photographed a friends' wedding for the first time, I decided to turn this passion into a business. My photography is classic and natural in quality and feel. I bring energy, creativity and enthusiasm to all my assignments, because as a devoted husband to a wonderful woman and a father to 2 adorable children, they are my inspiration to capture life's precious moments.
