Take a look at this before you go shopping after Thanksgiving. Produced for Michigan, it’s got a great message for every state!

We recently had the opportunity to photography Muriel and Jeremy’s wedding at the beautiful Lake Arrowhead Resort. Their wedding had it all: gorgeous bride, handsome groom, great venue, perfect weather, great family and guests! Here are a few favorites:

A couple of Muriel, looking stunning:

After the ceremony:

Hot!

One more down by the lake:

Muriel and Jeremy, thank you so much for having us photograph you wedding! What a great day!

Tiffany and Gordon were married in the First Baptist Church of Alhambra. The reception was at the San Gabriel Hilton. These two are really in love, and it was nice to see the support from their families, some of whom came half way around the world to be here!

There was a ten-course meal, lots of fun and dancing. Here’s a short video:

Tiffany and Gordon, many blessings for your life together! Thank you for having us be part of your day!

If you are graduating in 2010, we’ve got an amazing opportunity for you! We are looking for models for our 2010 high school senior season. We’re offering a photo session in our studio and/or on location. You can always bring a friend, too. Get ten of your friends to come to our studio and we’ll give you an iPod Nano! Yes, you read that right! Call today, we are only offering a limited number of these special model sessions! 909.981.6318.  Here’s a short video of what you can expect!

Most of the Class of ‘09 has been in our studio now, so while there is a short break before the Class of ‘10 start coming, I’ll be posting some clips from our studio sessions.

Here’s Scott. He’s quite a good artist, so he brought some of his work in to be photographed with him. He also brought his guitar. In the second half of the video you’ll see our new-this-season metal wall. Enjoy!

We’re getting phone calls asking if there is still time to get senior portraits done before graduation. The answer is “YES!” But don’t wait too much longer!

A couple of other things: We now have custom graduation announcements and thank you cards that look much nicer than what you are used to seeing, and they are very affordable, too!

Plus, a super-cool special offer! With every photo that you order, we will email you that image so that you can post it up on your MySpace, FaceBook or the social network of your choice! The cost for this? Nada. It’s free.

Just think how great you are going to look! But first you need to call . . . soon! 909.981.6318.

We had the chance to photograph Yraci and Fred’s big day last Saturday. Yraci is stunningly beautiful:

Here she is right before walking down the aisle:

Fred liked what he was seeing!

A nice church kiss after the wedding:

The wedding was at the Methodist church in La Verne. The same church where “Wayne’s World” was filmed, and, for those of you old enough to remember “The Graduate,” it was filmed there too. But the real reason Yraci and Fred chose this church for their wedding is because Yraci’s parents were married here too!

After the wedding we headed over to the University of La Verne for some casual portraits.

This is one of my favorite father-daughter dance shots. You can see the tenderness and love:

The rings!

I’ve decided it’s high time for me to get a shot with the brides and grooms we photograph.

Many blessings, Yraci and Fred. for your life together. We were honored to be there to capture your memories!

Some fun with Easter egg coloring. I hope you have a wonderful Easter Day with your family and friends!

Belinda and Jake came into the studio yesterday for some fun, “anytime” photos. We had a blast! A few months ago, we photographed their wedding, so it was great to see them again! Here are a few of the dozens of amazing photos we made yesterday:

They brought the dogs!

They brought the fun!

They brought the love!

They brought the look!

Here’s one from their wedding:

Rumor has it that Ikea is coming out with a new, eco-friendly car. If anyone could do it, Ikea can! It’s called the “Leko.”

However, the announcement is going to be on April 1st. As in April Fools’ Day. I dunno . . . true or hoax? You decide. Here’s a photo:
