September 20, 2008: Sarah & Clinton

Eric Turner and I went to Monterey to shoot Sarah and Clinton's wedding, where we enjoyed a beautiful wedding in a beautiful setting.
The bridal party was super fun...
the girls' green dresses and the guys' green ties were awesome, and went way better with Sara's choice of orange than anyone had expected.
There were just too many fun things to shoot, and we got some great pictures.

September 13, 2008: Jacey & Jimmy

A friend of mine from Sonora, Jacey, got married and her and her husband and families threw their wedding together in about a week.... 
and it was one of the all around best weddings I've been to! 
Everyone was duly impressed. 
It was super fun, and I knew a bunch of people there, the wedding party was great, Jacey's beautiful, Jimmy's awesome, and I got to give them a gift by shooting their wedding....

September 12, 2008: Locatelli Party

I'm also working for Tanja Lippert these days.... 
she contracted me out to shoot a rich party. 
It was really rich. 
The place was amazing. 
The party was for a Father who had done a lot of great work for Santa Clara University. 
It was easy -- all I had to do was show up and shoot some details and get paid. 
I can do more of that.

September 6, 2008: Stephanie & Daniel

Stephanie and Daniel's wedding was so much fun and turned out so great. I shot it with Eric Turner, and we were both skeptical of it being in Visalia at the end of summer. But being within the grounds of a beautiful house on a walnut farm shaded by huge trees, it was way cooler and beautiful than we could have imagined. The couple was great, the bride gorgeous, and the bridal party fun as hell.... for their first dance, they busted out this amazing choreographed dance to a super gangster rap song.... it was the most incredible first dance ever. It will never be topped. We were pretty bummed because they didn't tell us that they were busting out, and so we weren't ready to capture that kind of action! I was lucky enough to catch the cartwheel just by swinging my camera up at the last millisecond and hitting the shutter instinctively, without looking. But I think we grabbed some good stuff... I mean, it is the Turner/Ho magnif duo......

August 30, 2008: Beth & Will

Beth and Will had a gorgeous wedding.. The church in down town San Jose was amazing, I had never been in there.. The reception was at the Sainte Claire Hotel, right down the street.. It was really crowded, but fun -- I had to shoot them through the mirror when they were cutting the cake! I got a lot more great pictures than I thought at first.. I'm happy...... I even got one of my favorite pictures in a long time, following...

August 23, 2008: Shannon & Russel

Fun wedding!! 
Great bride and groom, they were super fun. 
I felt really bad for Russel because it was so hot during their ceremony that he was getting really light headed! 
I felt bad taking pictures of him sweating bullets and being comforted by his mother, but he'll look back on it and laugh, that's the kind of great guy he is. 
Shannon's family owns a towing company so they had a tow truck photo op, and Barbie and Ken mini Shannon and Russel in a metal tow truck model. 
She also river dances, and there was couple surprise dances that her and some guests busted out. 
It was quite impressive! 
My favorite part was the photo booth they hired.... I want one in my house!

August 9, 2008: Taralynn and Kevan

Taralynn and Kevan's wedding was very, very nice. 
Taralynn looks like a glamour model from the 60's or something... she's super hot.
Very fun to shoot, obviously! 
They even had some Chinese dancers at their reception. 
Impressive, I know......

July 12, 2008: Rachel & Kevin

Tidwell's married! 
A long-time friend of my sister finally married his fiancee of several years, Rachel, and I shot with Eric Turner again.
It was back home, in Sonora, at Sierra Bible. 
The day went beautifully! 
We had plenty of time before the ceremony to do a first meeting, ALL of the portraits and some fun ones of the couple. 
We knew most of the people there and everyone was happy and easy going.
The pastor was hella funny.... he gave Kevin a bean pot and Rachel a teacup and explained how they were those things. 
And then best man Nathan, aka Milnik, gave Kevin a funny cup that he custom made into a ball and chain mug. 
Some special wedding gifts, huh?
