My “acting” debut at Future Quest!

Friday, September 4th, 2009

You might remember my photos a couple months ago from the youth conference my church puts on every year called Future Quest. I posted images from the first two days, but on the third day, I was the one up on stage.

We worked so hard for many months on this video, and I’m really proud of the end result. I think it’s incredibly powerful and moving, and the rest of the cast did an amazing job!

Enjoy!

Kamran and Leila – Fairbanks Ranch Clubhouse

Friday, August 28th, 2009

A couple weeks ago I was blessed to go shoot a GORGEOUS wedding with the Baxters at the Fairbanks Ranch Clubhouse. Anytime I’m shooting with them, its a guaranteed great time. :)

We started at a beautiful house that Leila was getting ready at…I was able to grab some shots of her and her totally amazing dress.

Then Kamran came walking through the gate :)

The Fairbanks Ranch Clubhouse and surrounding grounds are soooo pretty!

Holy gorgeous table settings batman!

Kamran and Leila had a really pretty Persian ceremony…I love learning about different cultures and to be there seeing it was facinating to me.

Then its time to party!!!

Sidenote: I really love this image because you can see Leila dancing with her father in the back of Kamran and his mom. :)

Thanks again David and Kimmie for having me come along!

Mike and Danielle – NTC North Chapel & Liberty Station

Sunday, August 9th, 2009

Last weekend I got to second shoot with my good friend David Matranga at Liberty Station and it was such a treat! The venue is absolutely gorgeous…beautiful grounds, wonderful chapel and great light. Oh, and the couple was GORGEOUS. Mike and Danielle had one of the loveliest, most emotional weddings I’ve attended yet. It was awesome.

I have quite a few favorite, so please do bear with me!

Danielle’s brothers walked her down the aisle…it was really cool :)

This one is my favorite!

Details!

Seriously, best toast ever. I teared up behind the camera. :)

Thanks again David for having me! :)

Emily’s Trash the Dress – Green Valley Falls

Tuesday, August 4th, 2009

Last week Emily and I decided to head up to Green Valley Falls and get some awesome shots of her on her horse Rocky (she IS a rodeo queen, remember!) and in the water at the falls. I love going up there so I totally had a blast.

Here are some of my favorite shots from the day:

For the final shots, Dan and Emily jumped off the rocks into the pool below….it actually looked a little dangerous so I don’t recommend it, but they had a blast!
