LA USD High School for the Visual & Performing Arts - HMC Architects

A fellow designer and I recently went out to explore Downtown Los Angeles. We stumbled upon this new school right off the 101. The facility did not have much security restrictions at the time, so we gave ourselves a tour of the grounds. The sky and clouds were very generous to my camera that day.

Graduation Photo Session

Elizabeth recently graduated from the Fashion Institute of Design & Merchandising in Los Angeles and wanted some images to commemorate her accomplishment.  She also wanted to share our photos at her graduation party.  We shot the following images at the Noguchi Sculpture Garden, South Coast Plaza. 

Carolina & Gino's Wedding in Whittier

Carolina and Gino recently asked me to photograph their wedding this coming summer. After going over the details, I gratefully accepted.
However, due to unexpected events, they decided to move up the wedding date so that Carolina's sister could be present. Her sister, who resides in Germany, was vacationing here and would be unable to attend in the summer as she is expecting her first child.
Don't ask me how they did it in such a short amount of time, but they were able to create a beautiful intimate ceremony and reception at a scenic hillside location. It was a lovely wedding and I was glad to have been a part of it. Here are some pictures from that evening. (click on image to enlarge)

The Morley Family Portraits

Last month I went out with the Morley family and did a family portrait shoot down in San Juan Capistrano. This is one of my favorite places to shoot in Orange County. The family was great to work with and we had a blast capturing some fun images. Here are some of my favorites.

BMW 335 in Downtown Los Angeles

You will be seeing a variety of subject matter in front of my camera. I photograph architecture, landscapes, weddings, portraits, product, and social events. Another subject you will often find me photographing is automobiles.

I recently met up with Gino Lomeli to shoot his BMW 335 coupe. He had been doing some subtle modifications to it and was anxious to record his progress. We headed out to Downtown LA to find some interesting locations for the shoot. Los Angeles didn’t let us down. Here are some of his favorites from that day.
