Susan and Yosup

All I can say is that this wedding was amazing! Susan and Yosup are way too awesome for their own good! It’s funny because they booked us in April yet we just barely met them last week! I guess it’s one of those moments where you feel like you’ve known them forever.

Susan and Yosup set the bar high on how much energy they could put into the day/night. You just felt it, whenever they talked, walked and danced their energy lit up the venue like no other! 

Thank you Susan and Yosup for an awesome wedding!

Cassandra and John

Typically, when shooting weddings, we tend to get all the typical prep scenes—hair, makeup, dress shot, etc. For this wedding, Cassandra and John were in two different cities at the start of their special day. This left us with skipping prep, but it totally worked to our advantage in the end. Here you see the stunning bride—relaxed, ready, excited. Then you see the groom—polished, prepared, cool. What better way to capture the essence of this beautiful day, than to see the couple at their best!

They had their first look once Cassandra arrived to the venue, and it was hard not to get emotional from behind the camera. This couple exudes love, mutual respect, and all the aspects of a relationship that one hopes to find one day. It definitely made filming seem like a breeze. Everything just fell into place. This couple values the presence of their family and friends, good eats, great music, and it made for a fun and flawless evening

Jackie and Ali

I remember meeting Jackie and Ali about 4 years ago at the Apple store and even then you could tell how much connection they had with each other; who knew my team and I would be filming one of the most important days of their lives! It was an honor for us capturing they’re awesome fun filled wedding at the Monarch Cove Inn in Santa Cruz.

Jackie and Ali were so calm throughout the day and probably the only couple that’s gotten fully ready 30min before their wedding lol. I believe Jackie put her dress on about 10min before walking down the aisle and she was still chill about everything! Congratulations Jackie and Ali Menbari it was a great day no doubt!

Mary Joyce and John

All I know is that these two are awesome! The day started super early! Started filming at 730AM! But after that everything sailed so smoothly! Filming the prep for both Mj and John was one of the funniest moments in filming, I’ve had! I guess you had to be there? Anyways, they made it a great experience and we had many laughs, thanks guys! Congratulations! Enjoy.

BOTCON 2011

Here’s a small highlight of our second time at BOTCON (Transformers Convention) held in Pasadena, CA.

Before we entered the doors I told my fiance “I don’t think i’m gonna be buying a lot of Transformers this time around…” Who was I kidding? I ended up buying enough to fill up a big box, you know the ones my filipino’s check in when they leave for the motherland haha.

Anyways, we had a blast! If you’re a TF fan and you plan on going remember to be prepared to spend $$$

We Heart Seattle

Nicole and I went to Seattle to spend our anniversary and got to do a bunch of fun stuff! Mainly; food, walk, food, shop, food, run and more food haha. That’s the best thing about visiting places you can eat and eat. We gained about 4lbs but we’ve burned that off by now.

Anyways, enjoy the video and take a trip out there and have fun!
