When Kat had asked me to shoot her wedding I was so damn stoked. There were a lot of reasons but definitely numero uno was because her and Jaln were just so much fun! I’ve known Kat for a pretty long time. She performed at my wedding when she was an instructor at Ko Su […]

YES! Lindsay and John’s wedding at the GRAND 1401 in FRESNO CA was AWESOME!! I love when I get to travel up north for weddings, everything seems so fresh and new and my eye gets to work in overdrive. THE GRAND 1401 is an incredible venue. Originally built in the 1920’s and restored to that […]
