When Kate saw Nate a few years ago, she knew he was special. Although it took her awhile to gain the confidence to say hello, when she did, they quickly became a pair. They are wonderful people and share such a beautiful love it melted my heart! Congratulations may your life together be filled with bliss!N&K_0001N&K_0002N&K_0003N&K_0004N&K_0005N&K_0006N&K_0007N&K_0008N&K_0009N&K_0010N&K_0011

This cute couple hails from Milwaukee, Wisconsin and flew in to say their “I Do’s” on Luscombe Cliff in San Diego. They fell in love 3 years ago and as you can see are head over heels for one another. As a musician, Kevin & Hannah chose to surprise their guests by singing their first dance instead if the traditional dance…it was incredible!! Here is to a rockin couple, may your lives together be pure bliss!!!Kevin&Hannahvintagepcbclpweddingblog0002clpweddingblog0005clpweddingblog0006clpweddingblog0008clpweddingblog0015clpweddingblog0016clpweddingblog0022clpweddingblog0036clpweddingblog0038clpweddingblog0047clpweddingblog0050clpweddingblog0053

Brad and Brett are in the L O V E and on 8/22/09 they said “I do” surround by amazing love, laughter and incredible music.  I have known my dear friend Brad since college and I am so happy that he has found the love of his life in Brett.  Let me tell you, these boys know how to throw a party and I am honored that I was there to capture it.  Oh, and a huge shout out to Bradngalz, Brad’s incredible gaggle of girlfriends, you ladies are beyond amazing!  Brad & Brett, may your days together be filled with the greatest love!IMG_2347-2IMG_2350IMG_2345IMG_2460IMG_2431IMG_2521-2IMG_2250-2 IMG_2586IMG_2600-2IMG_3078

miss rosati…if you please

Carla Rosati has one of the kindest hearts on the planet and I am very lucky to consider her a dear friend.  We always laugh cause Miss Car Car has a secret.  What is it that they say, “You can take the girl out of Jersey but you can’t take the Jersey out of the girl.”  Hmmm….let’s just say, Carla got in touch with her roots for part of our shoot and Jersey never looked so good!CarlaRosati044CarlaRosati145CarlaRosati208CarlaRosati209CarlaRosati253CarlaRosati354CarlaRosati422CarlaRosati376

shot 4 shot

August 15, 2009

Ok…so right after Michael Jackson tragically passed away, my friends and I got together for a little tribute…we called it “Shot 4 Shot.” The idea was we were supposed to take one shot of alcohol for each shot I took…this did not happen. BUT, we did groove all night to MJ and there were plenty of shots taken both with my camera and of the adult beverage variety!  Yes, I do have crazy friends, and I count my blessing every day for each and every one of them!!!shot4shot0001shot4shot0004shot4shot0008shot4shot0013shot4shot0015shot4shot0021shot4shot0033shot4shot0047shot4shot0049!
