For weddings (and indeed for events, Quinceaneras and Bar\Bat Mitzvahs) I try for a blend of classical with photojournalistic (candid) style. I want create images which don't look "that's so 2019" -- in 2030. You can often date family, wedding or portrait photography quite easily by the style. We've all photos of someone's parents from teh 1970s or 1980s.

I hope to create lasting photographs which don't look dated and hence don't adhere to current (often passing) photography styles. There's an old Italian proverb which says: "A woman born beautiful is born betrothed." I say all brides are beautiful and that's why I think I fall in love a little bit with each of my brides. It's hard not to. I love women.

When they are in their wedding day "mode" they're irresistible. Glowing and smiling and pouring out such wonderful energy I'd almost shoot wedding photography for free just to ride the endorphins. Love is love even if the person is the same sex and you've been living together for ten years.

A misogynist I'm definitely not.

Needless to say, I took the family and we did some San Simeon elephant seals type photos to enjoy the coast.
It's Malibu, with a luxurious villa overlooking the Pacific Ocean and yes, we had a drone to capture all the fun.
It's hot, it's August in Topanga and the sweltering heat is made bearable by the cool couple Jonathan and Karen.
Andree and Brian find the beach is just right at Crystal Cove for some great engagement photos.
It's only a sneak peek of the wedding video and a quick edit but sometimes a wedding couple is so cute.
I give my clients next day, yes, NEXT DAY, previews.
These will be watermarked and NOT the final product although they will be great photos for sure but I reserve the right to edit them.
Yes! Sometimes I'm hired to do JUST the video and I love it.
I have a great team who shoots the "B" roll and act as second shooter to catch all the fun wedding video moments.
I'm still rare in that I offer highlight reels and the full complete wedding - and some of these wedding films can be long.
I'm talking 90 minutes for a full church wedding and reception.
