Happy Friday!

Friday is here, and this weekend I have no weddings so I finally get to relax and catch up on some movies! I absolutely love horror flicks, and there are a few that looked pretty good that I never got a chance to see when they were in theaters. Here are a couple that I am going to try and watch this weekend:

Plot Outline: A man who specializes in debunking paranormal occurrences checks into the fabled room 1408 in the Dolphin Hotel. Soon after settling in, he confronts genuine terror.

This move looks CREEPY! From the previews anyways. Stephen Kings movies always seem to be worth watching and this one looks like no exception.

Plot Outline: An unhinged war veteran holes up with a lonely woman in a spooky Oklahoma motel room. The line between reality and delusion is blurred as they discover a bug infestation.

This movie looks crazy! I think this may be more of a psychological thriller than a horror, but I have been wanting to see it since I first saw the previews.

Other than that, I have an engagement shoot on Sunday, so stay tuned for pics from that...and I have a TON of errands to run. Oh and I think I might try to take some studio shots of my brothers new baby boy, Devin. Well I hope everyone has a great weekend....lets hope that the rain stays away!

Cheers

Universal Studios

Saturday Sandy and I went to Universal Studios! We were both pretty excited because neither of us have been since we were kids. Pretty strange huh? We both have lived 20 minutes from Hollywood our entire lives and haven't been in over 15 years! Well, let me tell you it was MUCH different then I remember. It is now much more of a theme park.....well, it probably was when I went before, but I was just a kid so what did I know? It was still cool to go though, and we both had a good time. The only thing I remember from this place was the tram ride, absolutely nothing else. Sandy was bummed that the ET ride is now gone, and in its place is the new Mummy rollercoaster, which is way to short for my liking! But it was still fun. I think my favorite attraction was the Waterworld show...that was sweet! The special effects tour was fun too. Well enough blabbing, here are a few photos from the day:

The ever famous universal globe!

Sandy and I. Wow, I need to shave

War of the Worlds plane crash scene....the other side was way cooler!

The very wet....but fun, Jurassic Park water ride!

Just some mummies hanging out, ready to slice 'n dice

Sandy's new boyfriend. I don't get smiles like that when she poses with me!!

After that little stunt she pulled with Spiderman, I had to feed her to Jaws! It's eating her alive! Ok, it's not really eating her....it's not even a real shark. And she is smiling, which she wouldn't be doing if she really was getting eaten alive.

Anna & Greg Engagement Session

Saturday I had an engagement shoot with a super cool couple down in San Diego. They decided to do it at Balboa Park, and I can see why. I have never been there before, and let me tell you this place is awesome to shoot at. There are so many different locations that I could probably shoot there all day! Since I live near the beach, that is where most of my engagement shoots take place, so it is always nice when a couple wants to break away and do it in the city or some other different type of location. Here are a few of my favorites:

I love taking photos with a little motion to them. It gives the photo a 'feeling'

Anna and Greg are getting married in October down in Murrietta, and I am very excited for their wedding. They are really fun and easy to work with and I know we will get some fantastic shots!

Audra & Alex 09.01.07

Last Saturday I shot a beautiful wedding in Malibu at the Malibu West Beach Club with Jen Cleary. Alex and Audra were an awesome couple, and they couldn't have picked a better day for their wedding. It was a hot day, but there was a nice breeze since we were on the beach, so I think everyone kept cool enough. Check out some photos:

And I'll end the post with some relaxed portraits of the newlyweds:

Congratulations Audra and Alex!
