I got together with Kathy and Tim for some engagement photos in Thousand Oaks recently. The setting was beautiful and lighting was perfect! Here are some images from the session. I am looking forward to their wedding in Simi later this year.

Jordi & Seth’s Engagement Photos

Just finished a super fun engagement session with my favorite couple Jordi and Seth – we had a blast, and got some beautiful images. I think the photos really show how fun, friendly and special these guys are.

We did these photos in Kingsmen Park on the campus of California Lutheran University in Thousand Oaks. I photograph in this park often because it is a very pretty location with nice lighting and many spots for different kinds of shots.

I can’t wait to photograph Jordi and Seth’s wedding – I know it will be a special event!

We just made these engagement photos at Cal Lutheran’s campus on Saturday. A beautiful couple – great friends – great photos! We had a blast – took a picnic lunch and made an afternoon of it. So far they are having a hard time choosing which photos to use for their invitation. Here are some of my favorites:

Pericles Photo Shoot

Cal Lutheran is putting on the play “Pericles – Prince of Tyre”. One of Shakespeare’s later plays, Pericles is a wild romantic tale of adventure that has its young hero traveling by sea to exotic lands. The play will have a grunge-futuristic look: Here are a few publicity photos showing the cast and costumes.

I lit and processed the images to have a video game look and feel. They came out just the way I had hoped. Can’t wait to see the play!

I just bought this really cool new software package called Topaz Adjust that adds texture to the photos and creates an exciting and unique look.

Sculptor Paul Lucchesi in the Kwan Fong Gallery

World famous sculptor has been commissioned to produce a life-size bronze for California Lutheran University.

Paul starts with a small version of the piece, a maquette, which shows us what the finished sculpture will look like. Amazingly, he has only a couple of snapshots to go by.
