Our inspiration for picking up the camera has and always will be our couples. Katrina and I have been fortunate enough to not only have these people accept us to document the most important day of their lives, but also to accept us to be their friends and family. Your stories are our life.

Brandon started his photography career in college when he joined the school newspaper. A passion for capturing real moments and telling the story led him to become the photography editor and win several awards for his coverage within only a year. Shortly afterwards he began shooting weddings with Katrina using this same style. The rest is history.

Tikko Studios


Tikko Studios was kind enough to throw a little lighting workshop for all the photographers in Southern California. It took place in their relatively new studio and man does their place make me jealous. Models Jeramee Lopez and my man Robert Ryu came out to support and do their thing. Unfortunately I came to a corrupted and half empty compact flash card so most of my pictures were missing, but here are some that managed to survive.

Friends Melissa, Brian, and Scott Roeder tagged along too. If you check their blogs all of them should have pictures from the event up as well.
