Good morning from Huntington Beach everyone! It’s time for the West Coast Wednesday Video Of The Week and this is one Huntington Beach wedding photographer that is has got a great double feature for you.
If you saw the Grammy Awards on Sunday and/or the red carpet awards, then you would have seen some of the amazing fashions everyone was wearing. From the lavish gowns, to the out of this world shoes and spectacular details – nothing was spared.
Plus… you would have seen the ostentatious arrival from one of the most cutting edge and theatrical artists of our generation; Lady Gaga. She showed up in a giant egg because she was still incubating for her performance and what she was wearing. Yeah, that was way out there. But that was just it – she was wayyyyyyyyy out there & created a buzz for herself. Pretty brave if you ask me!
Lady Gaga didn’t sweep the awards, but she did take home some and another favourite band that I like did well & performed too and that was Paramore. I’m guessing by now you may already know a bit (or quite a bit) about Lady Gaga, but check out this bit about Paramore from their bion on their website. Good Stuff!
“As Paramore embark on the most successful year of their career, there seems to be no limit as to what they can accomplish. The band’s last 2007 album RIOT! has sold over two million copies worldwide, the group was nominated for a Grammy Award in 2008 for “Best New Artist” and even their live CD/DVD The Final Riot! has gone gold. However while these statistics are impressive, record sales have never been the driving force behind Paramore and that fact has never been as evident as it is on the group’s highly anticipated third full-length brand new eyes. In fact, as excited as this group of young adults from Franklin, Tennessee are to have had the opportunity to tour with their heroes like Jimmy Eat World and No Doubt over the past few years, they seem even more ecstatic to share brand new eyes with the world. “I hope that every record is a progression for us, but this one is definitely a huge leap from RIOT!,” the band’s front woman Hayley Williams explains. “I just can’t wait to get back on the road and start playing these new songs live”

PS, If you missed the latest episode of my online “TV” program; “How To Make The Most Out Of Your Wedding Day that dropped last week, it was with Ms. Lauren Vopatek – the master uber-hair stylist from Dean Anthony on 2nd Street in Belmont Shore, Long Beach and Bella Salon of Naples. Totally check it out – she’s got some great insight on how to save some time, some money & your sanity while planning your wedding.

PPSS, I have a couple of HUGE things that are getting ready to happen in the coming two months. I can’t say yet, but they’re huge and I think you’ll love them.
Good morning from Huntington Beach everyone! I received a great tip from my friends over at Elegala.com about Wedding Invitations. In today’s world, there are so many variations of the “family” – it’s nearly impossible to get a grip on how to properly word your wedding invitations without offending or leaving someone out. So when I received this note, I just had to share it with you.
Ya know… I wasn’t always a Huntington Beach wedding photographer shooting weddings & portraits around Southern California. I used to be in a band while I was shooting with one of my old high school friends back from ’86 – ’89 & then played the drums with a lot of other bands from Portland like “Jane His Wife” and then in Chicago with a band called “Male on Sunday” (which was a Duran Duran cover band AND my band mates totally looked like John Taylor & Nick Rhodes – crazy!).
There are many things that I love about being a Huntington Beach Wedding Photographer. There is living in Southern California, more specifically – Orange County, which has the most amazing sunsets in the country. Then there’s the amazing friends that I have all the way south in San Diego to San Francisco. Then there’s the amazing clients that I get to work with like Shelby & Matt. (No more “And then.” – hee hee hee!)
