Newport Beach Wedding PhotographerGood afternoon from EPHQ everyone!  I’m one wedding photographer in Newport Beach who’s totally flattered with this awesome email & note on Facebook I received from Rachel & Martin about their totally Romantic & Sexy Los Angeles Engagement Shoot I recently photographed for them.

As you’ve seen from all the awesomeness on Twitter & Facebook – 2012 is bursting at the seams with Portraits, Engagement Shoots, Weddings, Red Carpet Events, two shoots for celebrity designer; Kate Mesta featuring Boo Boo Stewart AND Brittany Curran, the TV program; “Picture Me – Picture You“ filmed internationally entirely on a mobile phone AND being nominated as OC’s BEST Wedding Photographer (which if I win 1st Place, I have a VERY generous gift for my family, fans & friends in This Video).  It’s been a really amazing 2012!

But with all the incredible events & photo shoots going on, receiving notes like the ones I’m about to share with you regarding Rachel & Martin’s Los Angeles Engagement Shoot really keeps me inspired for nearly 30 years as a professional photographer.  Check this email out!

“Good Morning David!

The pictures are more than we could have asked for. I am in love with them. I will be using some on our Christmas cards!!

You are a master at your craft and have the privilege of capturing life’s most precious moments simultaneously bringing joy into peoples lives.

With that cheesy comment said, I will recommend you to all of my friends and family for years to come and will cherish these pictures forever.

Thank you again for putting a smile on our faces and getting us more excited for our up coming special day.

With love,

Rachel”

Newport Beach Wedding PhotographerGood afternoon from Esquire Photography HQ everyone!  I’m one Newport Beach Photographer who’s totally excited to share Rachel & Martin’s Romantic & Sexy Los Angeles Engagement Shoot with you.

As I’m sure you’ve seen on Twitter & Facebook – quite a few things been happening recently.  Like…

…getting hired as the Director of Photography AND Co-Director with Markus Redmond on the upcoming movie; “Here & Now.”  Or the two photo shoots for celebrity designer; Kate Mesta featuring Boo Boo Stewart AND Brittany Curran.

Then the TV program; “Picture Me – Picture You“ filmed internationally entirely on a mobile phone AND being nominated as OC’s BEST Wedding Photographer (which if I win 1st Place, I have a VERY generous gift for my family, fans & friends in This Video).

Now I have a totally sexy & romantic Engagement Shoot I recently photographed for Rachel & Martin up in Los Angeles at their home & neighborhood in Sherman Oaks that I’ve been dying to share with you.

We started off their Los Angeles Engagement Shoot down the street from their home near the Los Angeles river for some relaxed and fun portraits.  There was even a totally sick old car parked on the street which “forced” me to lie down in the street’s intersection to get the perfect angle for some sexy portraits of them.  Once we wrapped up their shoot outside we headed back to their home where their dog; Dexter got in on the fun.  He’s absolutely the cutest little guy!

Now that you have an idea of the fun we all had during Rachel & Martin’s Engagement Shoot in Los Angeles and if you’re thinking…  Hey – I’d really like to get to know this Newport Beach Photographer (Previously a Huntington Beach Photographer) who loves music & fashion, photography and art, feel free to contact me anytime.

I’m available just about 24/7 via Twitter, Facebook, Google+, the form on my contact page, or the old fashioned phone as well at 888.ESQ.PHTO (888.377.7486) or 562.225.5915.

Newport Beach Wedding PhotographerGood morning from EPHQ everyone!  I’m one Newport Beach Wedding Photographer who’s got a totally awesome West Coast Wednesday Wedding Tip Of The Week for you!

I’m one wedding photographer in Orange County who’s so happy to have the big move of EPHQ done & behind me and am excited to share this week’s Wedding Tip Of The Week with you from my friends at Elegala.com.

As I’m sure you’ve seen on Twitter & Facebook I love being able to help brides & grooms save time, money, and their sanity planning a wedding and I think today’s wedding tip from Perfect Wedding Guide will help you Make The Most Out Of Your Wedding Day AND have some much more creative ideas for planning your wedding.

So for today’s wedding tip, I have some great advice on how to save more money in your wedding budget and make your wedding ceremony a LOT more personal – describing you.

Check this out!

Unique Wedding Ceremony Ideas

Incorporate these unique wedding ceremony ideas and exchange “I dos” in your own distinct style.

Hey, it’s all about you; take back your wedding ceremony! It is a ritual – time honored and sacred – but that does not mean it has to be like every other. Even if you prefer the more traditional route, you can still add a touch of personality with unique wedding ceremony ideas for décor, readings, and songs.

Newport Beach Wedding Photographer

Ceremony Location
Not every wedding ceremony must take place in a house of worship. Outdoor locations and other types of ceremony sites can make for ceremonies that are both spiritual and memorable. Consult our list of unique ceremony site ideas for inspiration.

A Refreshing Wedding Ceremony Idea
Welcome and refresh your guests by serving lemonade, iced tea, or your signature cocktail. It’s a nice touch, and your guests will appreciate the gesture. Depending on the season or nature of your wedding, you can tie your refreshment choice into the theme or style of the day. If the weather is cool and the ceremony is outdoors, consider serving a hot drink to keep guests warm.

Personalized Pew and Altar Decorations
 Who says your ceremony decorations must be floral? How about adding burlap or fabric bows to ceremony pews, and creating a colorful ribbon backdrop for your “I dos.” Our complete wedding flowers and wedding decorations guide can help you create unique and memorable décor.

Customize your Wedding Ceremony Programs
Summer brides often design their wedding programs to double as a fan. Or keep the shape and style traditional, and include personal letter or poem to add some interest to this often overlooked detail.  Our complete wedding programs guide offers even more ideas to get your creative juices flowing.

Personalized Aisle Runner
You will know this is your ceremony while walking down the aisle on a runner personalized with your monogram or logo. If that’s not your style, consider a burlap aisle runner lined in flowers.

Beyond “Here Comes the Bride”
If walking down the aisle to the same song as thousands of brides before you doesn’t sound appealing, there’s no reason why your favorite tune can’t make a memorable substitute. Consult our list of Popular Wedding Songs for unique and non-traditional wedding ceremony music.

Mix up the Bridal Party
Who says your maid of honor must be a “maid”? If your best pal happens to be a guy, have a “man of honor.” Same goes for the best man; there’s no reason why there can’t be a “best woman.”

Unique Wedding Ceremony Tradition
Not crazy about the unity candle or sand ceremony? Instead, plant a tree together and allow family to also add soil to the tree’s container.

Newport Beach Wedding Photographer

Write your own Wedding Vows, Readings, Poems
Nothing puts that special personalized stamp on a ceremony quite like vows and readings prepared by the bride and groom themselves. These spoken words expose your mind and your heart to each other and to your audience. Get started with our tips on writing your wedding vows and list of popular wedding readings in our wedding readings and speeches guide.

So there it is!  I hope that helped you out a bit and if you’d like to chat more because you’re thinking… Hey – I’d really like to get to know this Orange County wedding photographer in Newport Beach for your wedding or event that loves music & fashion, photography and art, feel free to contact me anytime.
