Welcome Nice to meet you!  This is just my simple blog about being a wedding photographer in San Luis Obispo and Paso Robles, the people I meet, and the photographs I take...plus some stories to help you glue them all together.  Please feel free to leave a comment...I love hearing from everyone.  As my fortune cookie said "Great people will come into your life" so I take that to mean you all, too!

Since Monika and Kyle are leaving back for Madagascar this week, I've stepped it up a notch and got this slideshow together today for you all to enjoy! Oh...I forgot one funny story about this event. My assistant Jon and I went to a little pizza shop in Carmel Valley after the rehearsal on Friday. We were starving, the place smelled delicious. We ordered pizza *and* sandwiches *and* garlic bread *and* pasta. It was all fantastic! When we were sitting there with our table full of food (enough to feed about 5 people, I think), the owner comes over and asks why so much food? We explain that we were shooting a wedding the next day and that left-over pizza might be necessary since the day was going to be very long. We didn't know when we'd have a chance to eat. That's when he told us "Oh, the one over at Holly Farm? They already have an order in for us to bring in 10 pizzas at 9:30 p.m. tomorrow." Jon and I looked at each other with big fat grins...a couple that thinks it out enough to order pizzas for the late night, second-wind...YES!

We absolutely loved meeting and working with you! We still can't believe how lucky we are that our long distance search for a photographer brought us to you. We are equally amazed at how quickly you were able to post these photos and slide show! We hope to see you again in the future - perhaps in Portland? :-) Thanks again for everything!!!

Love,
Kyle and Monika

Just couldn't wait to share this with you all. The song is one of my favorites and when it started playing for Jenn and Nick's first dance, I got chills. Big chills. So, it was a no brainer to choose it for their slideshow. Grab your kleenex, this one makes me cry and sigh. (press the little play button and expect music).

Felizia and Zack are on their honeymoon right now...and they told me that they were bringing the laptop. So, I wanted to give them a cool slideshow to enjoy while they are in paradise! Have a beer, set the salsa down, and press play...

The coincidences with Mike and Tracy's wedding were pretty funny when we finally got together to talk itinerary for their day. The reception was at Venezia Grill in Redondo Beach...which I'd just shot for Nancy and Ryan's reception the month before. (Lovely place for receptions, by the way. It photographs beautifully!) Then, when I was reading the details of the processional, I saw they were walking out to Angels and Airwaves "The Gift" which I'd just fallen in love with the week before. So, of course that's the soundtrack to their slideshow. ENJOY!

How about the slideshow from Stacey and Matt's wedding on at the Shore Cliffs? Let's take a look! The day was a blast, hope you leave the show with a big old grin on your face like I did.
