This image was taken in Murrieta, California using the amazing Anova light from Rotolight. The greatest thing about this light is the fact that it throws so much light in such a wide expanse. Can't wait to share more pics!

This image was taken at my landscape workshop in Yellowstone just last month. We put our hiking boots on and went for a walk out to this stream about 1 hour before sunset. It was such a peaceful and beautiful place...finding these types of locations is the reason I love landscape photography.

FYI: This image is not HDR. This is what happens when you expose for the background and use flash to light your subject. This image was taken at my workshop in Miami in May. Using my Pocket Wizards I fired my flash off camera which enabled me to set a different exposure level for my overall image. A great way to create dramatic contrast in your images!

This image was taken at my workshop in Morgantown, WV of the beautiful Megan Ward. We had the privilege of shooting inside the theater that is no longer in use, and we had a great time. This image was taken using my Rotolights with some side lighting to give it a real dramatic look. We had a great time and I can't wait to go back!

This image was taken at my destination wedding at the REAL wedding workshop in Moundsville, West Virginia at the Palace of Gold. It was a historic event as this was the first non-Hindu wedding EVER at the Palace of Gold and I was honored to be able to shoot it as well as hold my FIRST REAL wedding workshop ever. What a combination right? It's an absolutely beautiful place. This image was taken after the ceremony during the couple shoot. The panoramic vistas at this place are just beautiful. Thanks Ryan and Janette for allowing us to capture your amazing day!

This image was taken in the Glencoe highland in Scotland after an amazing sunrise. This little cabin sat there at the bottom of these massive mountains and I just loved how it came out as a contrast by using the black and white. Hope you like it!

This is a client review and testimonial from my amazing couple Aaron and Daryl King at the Mosteller Mansion in Hickory, North Carolina. As you can tell by my testimonials I have a close relationship with my couples so much to the extent that they feel very comfortable in making fun of my bald head as is evident in this testimonial.
It's all good, all clean fun. I love this couple and love that I had the opportunity to work with them! Click below to see what they had to say! Video is 2 minutes long and includes images from the wedding.

This image was taken at my workshop in South Carolina in November of last year. This was the first time I did a child shoot at one of my workshops and it was a blast! For this shot I had to work with Sullivan to get him to smile and fall back...and by the time I got him to do it he did it beautifully!

This image was taken during my Chicago workshop in September 2012 with the beautiful Tyler Vines as our model. We did this shoot at 1AM in an alleyway in Chicago....we were exhausted but definitely wanted to nail this shoot before we finished. This was shot using a video light for front light and a triggered flash from behind. Thanks again to my wonderful group for joining me on this adventure!

It was a beautiful wedding and we took this just after the ceremony during their wedding day couple shoot. The lighting is natural except for a video light that I used to light them. Hope you like it!

This image was taken at my workshop in Chicago, Illinois in September. This was towards the end of the shoot and I was shooting at a high ISO, using my SB910 set up to a Pocket Wizard and Ray Flash, with no tripod. The point I'm trying to make is that you can create some amazing images by just using some basic equipment. You don't always need a studio set up. I just love using Nikon because I have so much latitude as it relates to shooting in high ISO which means I don't have to slow my shutter down to a point where I would have to put it on a tripod. Hope you like it!

This is a production image from the wedding of Sako and Alvina last Saturday in Los Angeles, California. As you can see here I'm shooting pretty close for a cake cutting/champagne toast. Well, there's a reason I can do that. It's because I use a full frame camera (D800), a wide angle lens (16mm) and use the Ray Flash which enables me to get gorgeous lighting even up close like I am....the right gear does make a difference!
This image was taken of me yesterday during my wedding for Sako and Alvina in Los Angeles, California. There are so many ways to take images of hanging wedding dresses, but using mirros is one of the bet ways to get some truly unique and beautiful perspectives. The problem is that when you use mirrors you get that crazy flash blowing out the reflection which is horrible. So to get around that you use a triggering system like Pocket Wizards and a Ray Flash which attaches to my Nikon SB910 Speedlight. The results can be breathtaking....
This image was taken at my wedding last night for Paul and Jessica at the Bali Hai in San Diego. The image was taken this was and wasn't cropped, I purposely wanted a shot that showed them holding hands over the skyline of San Diego with the moon above them. It was such a beautiful night...I wish all weddings could have such tremendous weather!
