Good afternoon from Esquire Photography HQ in Newport Beach everyone!

I’m one Wedding Photographer who totally humbled with all the love & wishes from everyone on my birthday when I was photographing Indre & Pele’s Newport Beach Wedding (iPhone sneak peek on my Facebook Page) on the Athena yacht from Electra Cruises.

If you liked Indre & Pele’s Engagement Shoot I recently photographed with them at my “secret spot” – wait till you see what I captured on their wedding day.  It was absolutely gorgeous!

Ok… so as I was saying about my bday wishes….

Never before was there such a MEGA huge outpouring of love to celebrate my bday in the past & I really wanted to say thank you to my fans, my friends, my family, clients & Kristine and decided to do something a little different.

I took a little time yesterday afternoon when I took a break from post production of the photo shoot I did for celebrity designer; Kate Mesta (Sneak Peek HERE) and popped out to record a thank you video to everyone.

Good afternoon from Esquire Photography HQ in Newport Beach everyone!

I’m a Newport Beach Wedding Photographer who totally burned the midnight oil until about 4:00 a.m. last night while rockin’ to Robbie Williams Live In Knebworth, England at EPHQ – who’s very excited to share Tre & Albert’s Signature Romantic & Sexy Portraits I photographed last Sunday in Los Angeles & Pasadena with you.

Tre & Albert remembered me from a bridal show I did ages ago & when Tre contacted me two weeks ago about a shoot – I was totally excited to do it for them as I remembered who they were.  Plus, Tre & I are very similar when it comes to do our “homework” for a photo shoot – so I knew what they would be bringing to the table for their shoot would be the same that I would be bringing.

Not only that – I knew they would be “dressed to the nines” for their portrait shoot.  And I mean dressed!  Tre wore an absolutely custom wedding gown that was made from two dresses.  Her wedding gown’s top was from Allure & the bottom of her wedding dress is from Maggie Sottero.  Plus she rocked some serious pumps from Guess and from Enzo Angiolini.  Tre also hired my awesome friends at Hair Comes The Bride – who totally rocked her hair & makeup, giving her the complete look of royalty.

Tre & Albert’s Signature Romantic & Sexy Portrait Photo Shoot was absolutely perfect.  From the moment we landed in downtown Pasadena for portraits at City Hall & also at the church across the street where I captured some of Anna & Lee’s Engagement Shoot (Anna & Lee’s Wedding was also Published by the Professional Photographers of America), to downtown Los Angeles – Tre & Albert’s shoot was exactly what I was saying; absolutely perfect.

I’ve put together a totally Romantic & Sexy slide show of a few of my favourite photographs I captured at Tre & Albert’s Signature Romantic & Sexy Portraits in Los Angeles & Pasadena below.  But before you scroll down to check it out and you’re thinking… Hey – I’d really like to get to know this Orange County Wedding Photographer in Newport Beach (Previously a Huntington Beach Wedding Photographer) that loves weddings & romance, photography and art, feel free to contact me anytime.

Filed in: How To Make The Most Out Of Your Wedding Day, Wedding Tips

Good morning from Esquire Photography HQ in Newport Beach everyone!

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.

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 day and reception a LOT more personal – describing you.

Check this out!

Weddings are continually evolving thanks to trends going in and out of style. However, when it finally comes to your wedding planning, you may be wondering how to make your event stand out among the many nuptials your friends and family attend. Here are a few unique wedding ideas for the bride- and groom-to-be who like to think outside the box.

Wild, just-picked wedding flowers
Wedding bouquets and flowers can set the tone for an event. So why not mix it up a bit? Just-picked flowers that are a little unruly but beautiful in their chaos can be the perfect pick – and this may say a lot about the bride. These bright blooms are a great choice for a bouquet, especially for a wedding that is a bit more casual.

Have the food say something about you
It is easy to get caught up in the many decisions you have to make while wedding planning. But when it comes to the food, many brides and grooms are thrilled when they get to taste all of their options. Those who love the beach and seafood may want to opt for a raw bar as an appetizer. This goes perfectly with any event near the water and the display can look quite elegant.

“The raw bar can be a clean, elegant, cocktail-hour friendly presentation. Instead of piles of shrimp and oysters, we’ve created a ‘grab n’ go’ seafood presentation, featuring small plates of oysters on a bed of sea salt and individual shrimp cocktail shooters in clear glass votive holders,” Josh Tierney of Great Performances told Shape Magazine.

Opt for a dessert table over traditional cake
Some brides and grooms simply do not love cake, so why have one at your wedding? A new trend as of late is forgoing the three-tiered wedding cake and having a dessert table instead. If you and your betrothed love pie or ice cream, then include that in your reception rather than spending a great deal of money on a cake neither of you particularly like.

Smaller guest lists, intimate ceremonies
The traditional church wedding is not always the answer for some couples. In fact, those who are looking for a unique spin on their event can skip the big, elaborate ceremony and reception and opt for a casual, more intimate setting with close family and friends. Not only will this save you some money, but the wedding itself will be more relaxing and reduce the stress level.

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.

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