Shooting in IDAHO



Yes, that is a REAL rainbow. I love my job, and how photo shoots can take me to new and exciting places. Well, Boise, Idaho was that most recent new and exciting place. Here Justin and Siska got married in the vineyards at a winery in Nampa, Idaho just outside of Boise. Boise is a fun town, my wife and I stayed at the Grove hotel, and took in some local culture. Great beer and GREAT chicken wings at a local pub we visited.

Hayden Ficht


How are THESE for sparkling blue eyes??? Hayden was a GREAT subject, the son of two of my college-mates Amber and Jason. At two months old, what baby doesn't look as precious as this guy?

Chad and Kelli: Rodeo Drive, Ice Cream and Photos




This was a GREAT time shooting an engagement session. Chad and Kelli, two good friends of mine, wanted to have the "L.A." feel for some photos, and who am I to pass up Urth Caffe and Beverly Hills? We had a great time shooting up there, and after their photos we enjoyed a great dinner at Maggianos at The Grove. I am SOOOO L.A.

Who takes MY photos?!!!






If i had a nickle for everytime someone asked me "Well, who is going to shoot YOUR wedding...?" I could retire. I recently tied the knot about 6 weeks ago to the most beautiful bride i have EVER seen, Jessica. And ofcourse, i INSISTED that i photograph her on the day of our wedding. Its a good thing my friend Tom, who shot our wedding, allowed me to so!! Jessica has NEVER looked so drop-dead gorgeous. I have seen my fair share of beautiful, glowing brides, but my sweetie just made my heart jump.
We got married in a breath-taking location, on the Stanilaus River, in an almond orchard at her parents house in Modesto, California.
