Adri and Ricky Wedding – Hacienda Las Trancas, Mexico

Last weekend, I had the incredible opportunity to shoot the wedding of Adri and Ricky in Mexico!!! What an amazing experience. This hacienda was not easy to get to, but once we arrived, it was paradise. This beautiful location was the perfect mix of old world historic Mexico with the service and amenities of a modern resort. Las Trancas is a private hacienda that consists of 11 individual and unique suites that surround a beautiful court yard. Needless to say, the venue was perfect!!! Not only was the venue perfect, but Adri and Ricky looked amazing!!! No detail was spared or missed and the entire day was spent crying, laughing, drinking, and dancing (I’m not sure what time it ended, but people were still doing shots at 4am when the shuttle picked us up for the airport). Thanks to you both for the incredible opportunity and an amazingly fun time. I’m not sure if this can be topped!!!

I’m still working on the images, but here are a few teaser pics from the wedding. Enjoy!!!

I had the pleasure of photographing Jackson (Jack) Cody a couple of weeks ago. Jack was super happy and especially smiley that day. He’s 7 months old and just full of life and energy! It was a sunny and perfect Calabasas morning (we expect nothing else in Southern Cal)!!! Thank you, Molly, Allen and Jack for allowing me to be your photographyer and for a great shoot…

One New Years Resolution Complete!!!

Well, Its March and one of my New Year Resolutions was to begin blogging. I’ve been amazingly blessed to have an incredible family that has allowed me chase a new found passion, photography! Needless to say, the end of 2008 and the first 3 months of 2009 have been incredible. My facination with photography really took shape when Lori (my Wife) allowed (yes, I asked for permission) me to head to Sevilla, Spain in October of 2008 (she actually encouraged me to go). This was my first Scott Robert Photography Workshop and I had no idea how my life would be changed… We had an incredible week of pure unadultrated focus on photography… For those who may not know, Scott Robert is an World Renowned Award Winning Wedding and Portrait Photographer. He’s an incredible teacher and an amazing encourager. In February, I had the opportunity to head to Vegas for the first stop of the 2009 Scott Robert World Tour (my second workshop) followed by WPPI. I must also to give my buddy Tauran, an amazing artist, musician and photographer, a huge thanks for exposing me to photography… You’ll see in his blog and website that he’s an amazingly gifted photographer, check it out!!! Thanks T!

Above all, I want to thank God for the incredible blessing that he’s bestowed upon me and my family…

Anyway, this blog is clearly a work in progress. But I needed to get something up and running. So stay tuned and visit often!!!
