When Kiki and Ty met, they were two theater kids in a small town in central California and they soon fell in love and started a 15+ year relationship that is only growing stronger with each passing year.

On Friday night I attended a show at The Constellation Room at The Observatory in Santa, Ana. My husband's band, Bird & The War, was on the bill to play so when I left the house I grabbed my camera, ready to shoot some video for them and also be the merch girl. I was impressed by a few of the bands, so much so, that I picked up my camera and photographed a bit for them. The first band that caught my interest was The New Varsity. Within a few seconds, I knew it was going to be a fun performance. Why? Because, Pop Punk.
And then the headliners, Bristol to Memory played a great alternative, pop punk set! This was a kick-off show for their EPIC PROPORTIONS TOUR. They were really entertaining to watch.
Last night I attended a small show for local bands in Lake Forest, CA. The opener was The Shakes. They were a fun alternative indie rock band that moved people to dance which I really enjoyed. And next up was Dear Kora. I loved their emotional vibe and hint of Flyleaf tone. They really captured the audience and even had a mosh pit going at the end.
In the past when I have done concert photography I have solely focused on the band but now with the documentary mindset, I found myself focusing on the fans and getting the raw emotion of the show.
I shot in RAW but I put my settings to Monochrome (Black & White) in camera, knowing that I could see them in color later when editing. While editing, I decided I liked how the majority of photos looked in Black & White and stuck with that.
Hope you enjoy :)

Sarah and I used to play Roller Derby together with the Orange County Roller Girls. Neither of us play anymore due to injury but it was fun while it lasted and I enjoyed practicing alongside Sarah and then competing against one another in a bout (game). When Sarah approached me about being her wedding photographer this Fall I was thrilled! We met up and she told me all about her grandparents home where she would be getting married in Pasadena and I was stoked to capture this special day for her and her soon-to-be-husband Shain. The home was a gem with a gorgeous backyard that was perfect for a small wedding ceremony and reception. Please enjoy these photos that Amy and I photographed.
Thank you for stopping by my blog, I hope to meet you in front of my camera soon!

I am thankful for family who support and believe in my art. Amanda is one of my cousin's best friends. Amanda booked my services early this summer and it was a client/photographer match! Her and Jon were a joy to work with and their bridal party was a blast! They are one big loving family and it made for a great wedding. Unfortunately Amanda got a massive migraine after the toasts and was unable to enjoy all of the evening's festivities but when she felt better, she came out for the last song of the night. Everyone was moved by the First Dance. It was really quite special. I hope you enjoy these highlights from their wedding.
Oh boy where do I begin? Well I suppose, the beginning!
Rob and I have been part of the same church family for over 3 years and he's a solid guy. He and Renee met at our church and started dating in November 2012. Fast forward to this past winter when I joined a Lifegroup that Renee was leading. Renee is such a wonderful gal and I enjoyed getting to know her in Lifegroup. Renee and Rob approached me one Sunday before service was going to begin and asked about my wedding photography services.
Rob & Renee are a great couple. Their joy is contagious and their Love for each other exudes from their very being. You'll get a glimpse of this in the photos below. I am honored to be part of their day and to use my gift Photography to capture the memories forever. It was a joy to shoot along side Amy, our new team member. I look forward to working together more in the future!
