I had the great opportunity to second shoot for Will Parris at a very nice wedding in Pasadena. There were so many great wedding photography opportunities.
The wedding was at St Andrews Catholic Church in Pasadena. If you have never visited St Andrews, I would recommend going there just to look at it and possibly just [...]
I love the idea of Google Voice. I’ve been wanting to use it for a while but didn’t want to because I could not use Google Voice voicemail with my iPhone.
Here is what I mean… If you call my Google Voice number, it goes to my cell then to Google Voice if unanswered, busy [...]
I saw a tweet from Felicia Day (@feliciaday) talking about the LA food trucks… clicked the link and saw that the Kogi BBQ truck would be in La Mirada. That is only 5 mikes from our house. We just so happen to be heading out for a bike ride too…
What would you have done???
Last week I photographed Karen and Dennis for their wedding! We had a great time and were pretty busy because we took photos at 3 different locations: St. Augustine Catholic Church, the Los Angeles Radisson Hotel and Kenneth Hahn park. I think their wedding photos came out awesome.
