Tiffany & Jordan: Truth Tabernacle wedding


Tiffany and Jordan were married in front of hundreds at Truth Tabernacle Church in Fresno where Pastor Vaughn Morton lightened things up a bit with a few jokes. Tiffany, who happens to be the daughter of my colleague John Mincks at the Fresno Bee, was very relaxed as I watched her get her hair done at the Church. Jordan also seemed very much at ease – even after draining a Monster energy drink. All in all, it was a fun time watching the day unfold. Great food and a yummy dessert capped off the afternoon as the newlyweds departed for their honeymoon in San Francisco. Here are a few of my favorite images from the day:

Daena & Chris: Dinkey Creek wedding


I some pretty interesting weddings – and I’m so grateful to my clients for that! – but I don’t think I’ve seen one more interesting that Chris and Daena’s wedding held at the Dinkey Creek campgrounds. These two really knew how to throw a party. They reserved the entire lower loop for all their family and guests and they stressed a very casual attire for the wedding. In fact, they demanded I not get dressed up to shoot their wedding. They said wear shorts (!). Who was I to argue? OK. I had a great time shooting their wedding because it was so low key, casual and, well, fun. The location was absolutely beautiful. I wish I could do all my weddings in a setting like this. I really appreciate Chris and Daena for their generosity and hospitality.

Dave & Kerry: married on the ranch

Had the best time at Dave and Kerry’s wedding last month. How could I not ? It was held at the Running P Ranch in Woodlake. Running Pee? Really? That’s awesome. And everybody there enjoyed it just as much as I did. So what if I had to dodge a little horse poop here and there to get great shots of the lovely couple. It was worth it. We had whatcha call a down home, knee-slappin’ good time. Dave and Kerry – thank you so much for the opportunity. I loved it!

Angela and Dean: Married


I was honored by Angela and Dean who gave me the opportunity to photograph their wedding at Ridge Creek Golf Course where they invited an intimate gathering of family to witness their Indonesian wedding in the Muslim tradition. It was really cool to watch. Later, the bride and groom changed into more Americanized wedding wear to celebrate with their friends as well as more extended family members. It was really a great time and a pleasure to capture the emotions and fun that went along with the day. It was also nice to shoot a wedding alongside fellow shooter Glenn Schafer who did video.

Jeanne’s 50th birthday party


My friend Jeanne Logan asked me to shoot her 50th birthday party a couple of weeks ago and I jumped all over it. I figured anything with with Jeanne and her husband Bobby Logan is going to be a good time. I met Jeanne a few years ago when I photographed her home town of “Cookseyville.” Check out the audio slide show I did for The Bee. The Logans are very musical and very fun. There was a Roaring 20′s theme and a great venue atop a hill in Dinuba with a great view of the Valley. I was happy to be there to capture her milestone birthday (I’m not too far behind you Jeanne). Check out a few of my favorites below.
