Mira Bridal Couture Unveiled / Couture Wedding Gowns

This will be a quick post. I just wanted to say thank you to Mira from Mira Bridal Couture for sending me a press pass to her Mira Bridal Couture "Unveiled" event. I was able to meet some great photographers and connect with some amazing models who were in the show. The show was fantastic and I cannot wait for next year! All the wedding gowns were beautiful! Great job to everyone who brought it all together!

Here are some of my personal favorites from the night:

Lifestyle Photography: Karrisa & Callie

I had the opportunity to work with two amazing models who are best friends. They totally made this shoot and produced some killer images. The afternoon went so smooth and we all had an awesome time. You girls did such a great job and work so well together and individually! I am looking forward to working together again!

I also want to give a MAJOR SHOUT OUT to my buddy Jonathan Rios from Zomeck Studios. He came along and shot some video which I am so stoked to share. All I can say is everyone involved blew me away and you are all great!

Limb Saver Photography / Jennifer & Steve

I need to first throw out a big THANK YOU to Jackie from Jacqueline Photography. Jackie is a great photographer so you need to check her out! She referred this amazing job to me and I was able to meet a GREAT couple.

Steve owns a construction company but is also a professional bow hunter. When I got the call from them to do a shoot for LimbSaver magazine in which they were being featured I was beyond stoked. Steve & Jennifer are such a great couple - their vibe is energizing and we had a great time shooting. It didn't hurt that Jennifer use to be a model! I have no doubt Steve is going straight to the top with his passion and I am really looking forward to Jennifer's new line of fashionable hunting wear that she kept saying she wanted to produce! ("Jen, you don't wear UGG boots hunting.." - Steve) Not only are they being featured in LimbSaver, but they are in the talks of being hosts for a show on the Outdoor Channel - such an amazing opportunity! Look for these two on TV soon!

Sunset State Beach

Ah, a very fun time camping with friends in Santa Cruz! This is my second time this month staying near SC. Just 2 weeks ago I got back from Aptos at an AMAZING beach house on the water with my fiancee and her family. I have really been super blessed. Camping with friends was no exception. I was only able to stay overnight and had to leave early in the morning so Val and I were dying to just run down to the beach. We stopped on our way home and I took a couple shots by the water. Looking forward to doing it again next summer!

Monterey Bay Engagement Photography

I was doing a little looking around and wanted to do a quick look back at the beginning of the year when I did a shoot with my long time friends Amber and Brent. Valerie (my amazing fiancee and assistant) and I had such a great time hanging around in Monterey and being able to do this shoot with them! Did I mention they were two naturals in front of the camera? Absolutely rocked this shoot!

Many of you have, but here is the slideshow for those of you who may have never seen it:

Santa Cruz

Just got done with a great shoot yesterday in Santa Cruz at the Boardwalk. My buddy, Scot, and I have been meaning to get out and shoot with each other and finally were able to. The conditions were killer with just a slight overcast with occasional sun. We caught some rain driving through the bay area so on our way up we were a little worried but super stoked to see Santa Cruz was beautiful. Such a great day of shooting.

You models did great managing the cold, the wind and that sand blowing all over!

RFKC - Royal Family Kids Camp

About a month and a half ago Val and I were on the couch watching Tyra Banks (fyi, I do not usually watch her, I swear!). Her and Rosie O'Donnell were working with kids in the foster system and it totally blew me away. The show lasted about an hour and I was glued to the TV and ended up watching the whole thing. Much respect to both these ladies for opening my eyes to a world of kids that are all around me.

After the show I told Val how much I wanted to work with foster kids and kept wondering how to get involved. Little did I know that God in His awesomeness would bring something our way about 2 days later. I get a call from my mom telling me a girl who works with her was wondering if Valerie and I would be interested in being counselors for a week with an organization known as Royal Family Kids Camp. I am still in awe at how amazing God is at putting these opportunities in front of us sometimes. Nobody except Valerie knew I had even mentioned wanting to do this.

Royal Family Kids Camp is an organization that has camps nationally (and some overseas) that give abused and neglected children in the foster care system a week they will never forget. It really is all about the kids and I cannot even describe how excited I am to build relationships with these kids the week we have together. Unfortunately state law prohibits any contact with these kids after the camp. You can not bring a camera, have any pictures of the kids, exchange addresses, emails, etc. As you can imagine I was super bummed to find out I would not be able to bring my camera. What it made me realize is that I need to leave a lasting impression on these kids the one week we have together. Many of these kids have grown up with adults who simply do not care. Many of these kids have been neglected, sexually abused, told they are worthless and will never amount to anything. While I can't change what has happened in their past I hope God will provide me with the wisdom and strength to show these kids they are truly loved and can accomplish anything they set their minds to. While I am sure this will be a life changing experience for them, I know that this one, very short week will change me as a person forever.

While I would love to go to Africa, South America, and other countries to help poverty-stricken children (it is a goal one day) - I have realized there are also kids who, for all I know, are down the street from me equally in need.

We have taken the first day of training and are leaving in June for a week to be a light to these kids. Pray that God will use both Valerie and I in lasting ways that we may never know.
