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.

Sheryl + Peter

Sheryl and Peter tied the knot in a beautiful Japanese garden under the blue California sky. To mix things up, they decided to plant a calamansi tree together during the ceremony. A filipino cuisine staple and one of our favorite ingredients!

Things got even more interesting during the reception. To get their guests fired up for the dance floor, the couple surprised everyone with a Rock Band performance. It wasn’t long until “Don’t Stop Believing” had everyone jumping and drinking the night away.
