Filed in: West Coast Wednesday

Good morning everyone! This is one Huntington Beach Wedding Photographer that plans on doing a “rinse and repeat” with today’s West Coast Wednesday Video Of The Week.

Last week, I took a stroll down memory lane & was inspired to share with you one of my favourite artists; Moby that I totally fell in love with when I was introduced to him living up in Portland.

Well… I have great news for you!  Last week, I received an email from Moby’s website letting me know that his new music video for the song: “The Day” featuring Heather Graham from his forthcoming album & photo book (Yup!  Moby is an avid photographer too!); “Destroyed” to be released.

Just in case you didn’t catch last week’s West Coast Wednesday Video Of The Week with Moby and his history, here is his biography from his website again.  I absolutely love it!

“moby was born in new york city, but grew up in connecticut, where he started making music when he was 9 years old. he started out playing classical guitar and studied music theory, and then went on to play with seminal connecticut hardcore punk group ‘the vatican commandoes’ when he was 14. he then played with post-punk band ‘awol’ while studying philosophy at the university of connecticut and suny purchase. he started dj’ing while attending college, and was a fixture in the late 80′s new york house and hip-hop scenes, dj’ing at clubs such as mars, red zone, mk, and the palladium.

he released his first single, ‘go’ in 1991 (listed as one of rolling stones best records of all time), and has been making albums ever since. his own records have sold over 20,000,000 copies worldwide, and he’s also produced and remixed scores of other artists, including david bowie, metallica, the beastie boys, public enemy, among others.

moby has toured extensively, playing well over 3,000 concerts in his career. he has also had his music used in hundreds of different films, including ‘heat’, ‘any given sunday’, ‘tomorrow never dies’, and ‘the beach’, among others.

currently he’s touring in support of his most recent album, ‘wait for me’, as well as working closely with a variety of different charities, including the humane society and the institute for music and neurologic function.”

But before you check out this week’s West Coast Wednesday Video Of The Week and you’re thinking… Hey – I’d really like to get to know this Huntington Beach Wedding Photographer that loves 80′s music, fashion, photography and art, feel free to contact me anytime.

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

So without further ado from Huntington Beach, I give you Moby with “The Day” and the behind the scenes footage as well.  Feel free to sit back with your favourite morning beverage and enjoy the music from Moby and kick off your West Coast Wednesday positively in Orange County, Huntington Beach, Los Angeles or another part of this huge planet that we’re all a part of.

Have an awesome West Coast Wednesday and also remember to make it a totally positive one for someone else too – cheers!

PS, If you missed it last Monday, be sure to check out the totally fun & awesome Katrina O’Donnell who I recently worked with as the wedding photographer for Bernadette & Vlad’s wedding day on the latest episode of “How To Make The Most Out Of Your Wedding Day” – where she’s sharing some terrific advice on how to save some time, some money & your sanity planning your wedding.

PSS, Totally check out the video program; Photo Night Live from the UK that I was a guest on.  YEAH!!!  Be sure to read the Story about it and the program episode.  We had a total blast and there was beer involved too at 11:00 a.m.!  Well… Not by me, but the guys in the UK were already at the end of their day.  LOL!

PPSS, I know I’ve been sharing a really awesome quote with you; “The people who are crazy enough to think that they can change the world… are the ones who do.” and thought I would share another one with you that I love.  It’s from the movie; “Knight’s Tale” with the late Heath Ledger.  It is:  “A Man Can Change His Stars.” Now that is empowering!

Good morning from behind the Orange Curtain everyone!  As I’m sure you’ve seen with some of my Twitter & Facebook updates, I’ve been giving back quite a bit lately in Orange County at Fountain Valley High School and Marina High School – then down in San Diego at Mira Costa College.  Where I was asked to drop by and observe one night en route to a meeting with my friend Michelle from Studio Z, but wound up giving an impromptu class on posing – both for the model and the photographer.

What’s really cool too – is that I was invited to go back down to San Diego tomorrow to give a full presentation on photography.  Can I just say… “Butterfly Effect!”  What an honour to be invited back and to give a full presentation to the entire class.  I’m truly beside myself and feel so flattered!!!

So before I kick off the day as a Huntington Beach Wedding Photographer in Orange County with a cup of coffee and prepare my materials to speak about at Mira Costa College tomorrow in San Diego – I’m totally excited to share with you Nellie & Darrel’s Fallbrook Wedding that I recently photographed at the Wedgewood in Fallbrook.

The Wedgewood Fallbrook is one of the newer properties that the Wedgewood family has acquired and it’s absolutely awesome!  If you’re not too familiear with the Wedgewood Fallbrook, check this out!  They’re located at the tip of North County in the upper region of San Diego and they’re one of the top outdoor wedding venues in Southern California. Wedgewood Wedding and Banquet Center at the Golf Club of California in Fallbrook provides you with the elegant San Diego wedding location you have been looking for, at a low price that you won’t believe.

Everything was wonderful about Nellie & Darrel’s wedding day!  Nellie was in an absolutely beautiful wedding dress by “Georgeous”, her shoes were from Night On The Town, and she wore her Grandmother’s pearl jewelry – which was beautiful and I added it to one of my signature portraits of their wedding rings from David & Son’s Jewelers during the wedding day.

Nellie’s hair and makeup was provided by Bella Bella Salon and Boutique in Encinitas and it was flawless!  Darrel and his men had their tuxedos fitted by; Night On The Town as well and those guys were definitely “Men In Black.”

On top of all that – Nellie & Darrel’s wedding day details were perfect too.  Jolene from The Dutch Flower in Bonsall provided all the floral arrangements – which added that perfect splash of colour for their wedding.  Not too much & not too little and DJ Motion from 4th Dimenzion Entertainment kept the dance floor full throughout the night.

I would like to give an uber shout out to Mike and Aubree at the Wedgewood in Fallbrook for orchestrating what I would refer to as a PERFECT wedding day for Nellie and Darrel.  Mike and Aubree and the team of professionals not only made sure every detail was precise, but that every guest was treated more like family.  If you’re considering having your wedding in the San Diego area, totally ring them up.  Mike and Aubree will give you the red carpet treatment from the moment you walk in the door to the time you leave for your honeymoon.

Before you check out Nellie & Darrel’s Fallbrook Wedding at the Wedgewood in Fallbrook – and you’re thinking to yourself…  Hey – I’d really like to get to know this Huntington Beach Wedding Photographer in Orange County loves to capture romantic portraits, timeless moments and wedding details, then feel free to get in touch with me anytime.

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

So without further ado, below is Nellie & Darrel’s Fallbrook Wedding in a beautiful slide show that I put together.  If you’re interested in delicious professional prints, I’ll have their wedding photography available on Pictage too.  I hope you’re having a great Easter, not eating too much candy and stay tuned for some more amazing events that I’ve photographed from San Diego to Orange County and Ventura – cheers!

PS, I mentioned above, but I really am excited to share with you that the butterfly movement that I’m doing my best to help create in Orange County!  it’s such an honour to be more than just a Huntington Beach Wedding Photographer in Orange County capturing beautiful portraits and covering amazing events all over Southern California.  But a photographer that wants to help dilate minds and make positive changes in this world.

PSS, If you missed the latest episode that was filmed in San Diego and released last Monday, be sure to check out the totally fun & awesome Katrina O’Donnell who I recently worked with as the wedding photographer for Bernadette & Vlad’s San Clemente Wedding on the latest episode of “How To Make The Most Out Of Your Wedding Day” – where she’s sharing some terrific advice on how to save some time, some money & your sanity planning your wedding.

PPSS, I thought I would share a new awesome quote with you from one of my absolutely totally favourite movies; “The Replacements” with Keanu Reeves (My favourite actor!) & Gene Hackman; “Pain Heals, Chicks Dig Scars, Glory Lasts Forever.” Awesome!

Super PS… Yes, that is me on the dance floor with Nellie.  Her mum took my camera from me & shoved me out there to get my groove on with her.  Too much fun!!!

Good afternoon & Happy Easter from EPHQ everyone!  This is one Huntington Beach Wedding Photographer in Orange County that is super excited to share with you Selah & Fabian’s Ventura Wedding that I recently photographed at the Wedgewood Buenaventura.

With so much going on in my little slice of the world photographing weddings, portraits, teaching at High Schools in Orange County and Mira Costa in San Diego – I’m grabbing every little moment I have to get behind my Mac Pro and do post reduction on all the events that I’m photographing.

Well today I have a VERY ROMANTIC treat for you!  If you saw some of my recent Twitter or Facebook updates, you may have seen a couple screen shots I was sharing from Selah & Fabian’s Ventura Wedding.  The screen shots were just little sneak peeks into their day, but as I have been going through the more than 1,000 photos from their day – it is obvious to me that their lives are overflowing with love, laughter and happiness.

From when I arrived to capture some of the awesome details in Selah’s Sherri Hill Wedding Dress, to the Paris Hilton Pumps she wore, and the flowers that Selah put together – their wedding day was beautiful.  Selah even had a new perfume that I had not heard of (crazy I know!) called; “Marry Me” by Lanvin in Paris.  What a great name for a perfume to wear on a wedding day!

Fabian and his men were rockin’ it in their tuxedos provided by Men’s Warehouse.  All of them looked sharp as a tack and when I was able to take Selah and Fabian out for some of my Signature Romantic & Sexy Portraits after the wedding ceremony – he totally complimented Selah in her wedding dress.

I would like to give an uber shout out to Sarah & Amy at the Wedgewood Buenaventura for orchestrating a PERFECT wedding day for Selah & Fabian.  She and her team of professionals not only made sure every detail was precise, but that every guest was treated more like family.  They’re both the consumate professionals in this wedding industry and I highly recommend you chatting with either of them if you’re considering having your wedding in the Ventura area.

Before you check out Selah & Fabian’s Ventura Wedding at Wedgewood Buenaventura – and you’re thinking to yourself…  Hey – I’d really like to get to know this Huntington Beach Wedding Photographer in Orange County loves to capture romantic portraits, timeless moments and wedding details, then feel free to get in touch with me anytime.

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

So without further ado, below is Selah & Fabian’s Ventura Wedding in a gorgeous slide show that I put together.  If you’re interested in delicious professional prints, I’ll have their wedding photography available on Pictage too.  I hope you’re having a great Easter, not eating too much candy and stay tuned for some more amazing events that I’ve photographed from San Diego to Orange County and Ventura – cheers!

PSS, I mentioned before, but I just can’t contain myself and I’m really excited to share with you that the butterfly movement is alive and well in Orange County!  I recently when I was a guest teacher at Fountain Valley High School and Marina High School – it really hit me that I’m more than just a Huntington Beach Wedding Photographer in Orange County capturing beautiful portraits and covering amazing events all over Southern California – but a photographer that wants to help dilate minds and make positive changes in this world.

PPSS, I thought I would share an awesome quote with you once more from the romantic movie; “Robin Hood” with Russell Crowe; “Rise and rise again. Until lambs become lions.” Awesome!
