Happy happy birthday to my Rebekah! She just turned three years old, but she's in denial just like daddy. Ask her how old she is and she'll still convincingly claim to be "two". Just like daddy will be 25 on the 28th. ; )

Wedding Photography Summit House Fullerton

Simeon waited anxiously for Betty to come meet him for the first time on their wedding day. She was in the elevator on her way up. As the door opened, Simeon inched closer, and Betty slowly emerged toward him. I truly love capturing moments like this as they naturally fell into an intimate embrace. (click here to see their teaser slideshow)

Their ceremony was held at St. Paul Lutheran Church in Fullerton, followed by the reception at Summit House.

Buy them for your friends or just buy them for yourself. Go, do it.

Smiley Raw

AMP Street have released a couple of new shirts. I like this one. A lot.

concept tee

Here's a brave tee for the books, not only jumping on a topical bandwagon, but putting their money where their mouth is and leaving the price open for the punters to decide. Insane? Yes.

Naive New Releases

Naive have expanded their already impressive range with the addition of a few new shirts. Perhaps not quite as tight as their unbelievable earlier stuff, these shirts are still well worthy of a mention - especially Into The Woods which is pictured above.

Dawn of The Dude

Dawn of The Dude tshirt by Cloxboy available from Go Ape.

If you need to ask, you'll never know.

Well ok, maybe you could just watch the movie...

defunkd real life review

Genuine awesomeness from 1984 comes to us from Defunkd, the recently award winning vintage stuff sellers. I was hugely impressed by the quality of this tee given its age. The only giveaway was the yellowed tag... i guess that was the only bit hanging out of the hermetically sealed bag this tee's lived in for the last 23 years. Seriously, it looks brand new.
Anyway, awesome tee, awesome service, and a great range of vintage tees and buying guides to ensure you don't get done when buying vintage.

STATS
Advantages: Real, proper vintage.
Disadvantages: The tag's a bit yellow.

Gorilla Riot

I'm not sure what a Gorilla Riot would be like, but in my head I imagine an awesome meeting of Gorilla-esque masculine rage and uni-student-esque passion as the enraged beasts protest violently over the destruction of their native habitats whilst harrasing business men, burning shops and tossing over hotdog stalls.

But that's just me...

I've been following the progress of the Gorilla Riot site since they announced their first Beta version on t-shirtforums.com quite some time ago. It's great to see a company who has a put as much time and effort into producing a great site as they have with their tshirt range. Testing and constant refinements means that the finished Gorilla Riot site provides an excellent shopping experience - enabling the salivating tshirt enthusiast to easily navigate between the label's 6 different launch collections. Sure, it's awfully annoying that you have to click on each thumbnail before you can see what colours each shirt comes in (no they don't all come in white!) but the site loads quickly, and getting a bigger look at the tasty illustrations (and models) makes it bearable.

With artwork from the likes of Digital Three, Bagger43, Eyekaps, LambShank (Kyle from D3 and IMario), and Matt Morris (aka Cool Vader), this is one riot that even the most ardent pacifist may want to check out.

Monsieur T fall/winter line

In case you haven't checked it out already, the fall/winter line from Monsieur T is well worth checking out. As well as a range of tshirts, their are some sweet hoodies to keep you warm. Artists including Andy Rementer, Bwana Spoons, Martin Ontiveros, Fernando Elvira, Emil Kozak, and the Berkley brothers have contributed their talents.

Mission Inn Riverside Wedding Photography

I had the pleasure of shooting Lani and Todd's wedding at the historic Mission Inn in Riverside, CA. Surrounded by Spanish architecture, the Mission Inn was once a monastery and it gave a glimpse of what Early California looked like in the days of the settlers. In here you'll encounter lush gardens, a maze of ornate structures, antique furnitures, amazing architecture, and unique sites. Around every corner is something fascinating.

My talented second shooter (Neil Rosales) and I scouted the grounds and were continuously awed by all the photo opps. Everywhere seemed like an ideal place for a photo shoot. I'm so glad that Lani and Todd allowed me to schedule a "first meeting" photo session. This gave us the chance to capture some very nice, romantic, timeless images of them within the famous Mission Inn.


The rotunda is one of my favorite spots!

Los Angeles Athletic Club Wedding Photography

A big congratulations to Marinela and Marc - they held their wedding and reception at the historic Los Angeles Athletic Club. I was fortunate to have my new pal Crissy Farah as my special guest shooter this day. We totally had a blast right from the beginning - we got there early to have a nice lunch. That's me and my 6" tall cheeseburger!

And Crissy with her seared ahi salad. Mmmmm...

Marinela looked ever so elegant in her Pronovias Obelix gown - she's such a natural model. She made it easy for us to capture some really classy images of her. And to think that Marinela even tried to tell me that she's shy. Ha!

Yeah, isn't she so shy?


Marinela and Marc had a romantic first meeting, but they weren't allowed to actually kiss until their ceremony. So they got really good doing the "almost kiss"!





We did a photo session in the streets of downtown L.A. where they got swarmed by real life paparazzi!

Sometimes I enjoy playing with texture in my images...






Of course we had to do the piano kiss, but then we found a pool table...

(This was after the wedding, so they were allowed to kiss!)
