I love traveling, meeting people, having fun, and of course taking pictures. I am moved by the raw power of emotions that can be captured through a lens and the equal amount of emotion that it is able to stir in others.
You are fun, beautiful, and in love. Picking the right photographer that you connect with to document your wedding day is crucial. The happiest day of your life will be told in pictures that you will want to remember and show to your grandchildren.

Khan Boat Party


Venue: Ambassador Boat – Newport Beach Yacht Charters
DJ: DJ Sunny
Dancers: Layla & Lotus Dancers

I met Ghazala Khan at Neil and Neetu’s engagement party. Surprisingly that night she asked me to photograph a celebration party on a boat in Newport Beach the very next day! Ghazala was kind enough to throw a this party in honor of her daughter, Schehrezade’s graduation from medical school in Pakistan. Judging from how fun the engagement party was, I knew I was in for something. There were great musical performances as well as some colorful exotic dancers. Aside from the entertainment though, the most important and powerful subject throughout the night was love. I could tell simply from looking at Ghazala that she loved Schehrezade, her family, and friends more than anything, and that is something I really try to capture in all my pictures.

Neetu + Neil | Engagement Party


Venue: The Andaz
DJ: Aaron of Vox DJs
Videographer: White Gorilla Media
Mermaid: Mermaids in Motion

Yes. You read right, they had a mermaid. When Neetu first told me about the main attraction I had no idea what to expect, but when I did see her I was blown away. To add more to the excitement the couple rented our the top floor of the brand new Andaz hotel on Sunset Boulevard. They really know how to throw an amazing party.

Neetu + Neil | Engagement


At first Neetu told me that her and Neil were camera shy but when the camera came out they were complete naturals! We only had a little more than an hour to shoot but we wasted no time at all. I swear I made them run a whole lap around St. Regis by the time we were through. I will be shooting their engagement party tomorrow night so stay tuned for that.

Elizabeth + Arvin | Engagement


I found plenty of similarities between Elizabeth and Arvin and Katrina and I. Arvin likes electronic music, marketing, design, and is extremely outgoing. Elizabeth on the other hand loves education, kids, and is ambitious. Together, Elizabeth and Arvin make awesomesauce. We went out to Irvine Spectrum later on in the shoot to take some pictures and go grab dinner. Little did we know an earthquake would happen while we were on the Ferris Wheel!
