    Elizabeth’s parents are quite the dancers =)

    I always love a good story and with every wedding I shoot I always want it to be able to tell more than just the story of their special day.  I want it to reach out to people to make them feel something more.  When I look at a photo it often wonder can I really capture a timeless image?  I think it is really hard but very much possible.  It’s those images that make you stop and stare a second, third maybe forth time.  Will a couple really look back on these images 20, 30 + years and remember that moment and cherish it more than just o look this is a photo of us dancing at our wedding.  I want it to communicate something powerful, something romantic, something magical that reaches out and says this is love, this is family, laugher, tears of joy and just LIFE framed in a moment in time.  As a artist I am almost never satisfied with my work.  I am always striving to perfect my art. 

    My passion revolves around people.  The joy of being around people makes me happy and for me its a privilege to document someones special day.  I never want my photography to ever be about me but always about the people.  I think there is always a part of you in ever aspect of our work which gives us style, signature looks which I’m still searching for.  Every time I photograph I always envision something different, I want to inspire people in life just as many have inspired me.  Its a beautiful cycle.  As people we are always evolving and I feel the same way with my work.  It’s never the same and I never want it to be the same.  Innovations comes by thinking outside the box but how do we think outside the box?  Lets start by not getting into a routine hehe…I know we are creatures of habit but I think a lot of times we become complacent or live in past glories or accomplishments that we fail to see what is ahead of us and see there is always more to explore.  So gosh darn it have some fun.  =) Spike your hair to work today or go some where that you remember that awes you or inspires you. 

    To Kevin & Elizabeth.  Thank you for sharing your day with me.  I know the Lord has many blessings for the both of you.  You both have awesome families who I know will support you throughout your lives.  Thank you!

    I hope you all enjoy this set.

    Cheers,
    Steve

    Misc photos from the shoot…hope you all enjoy these too…
    The first three are my favorite but I can’t seem to pick which one I like more.  I like all three for all different reasons.

    Quick update everyone.  I have some wedding photos I am finishing up for Elizabeth and Kevin and will be posting those hopefully by the end of this weekend.  I’m off to Belmont for a wedding tomorrow and then back home for a fashion shoot on Sunday afternoon.  I have tons of work to do but here is a shoot I did with Christina of her friend CJ a while back.  All photos were taken in Saratoga, CA.  I hope you enjoy this small set.  Special thanks to CJ for hanging with Christina and I for the afternoon.  Anyways, I need to pack my gear up and get some rest for a full day tomorrow.  I hope you all have a awesome weekend. 

    Cheers,
