Good evening from Huntington Beach everyone!  I’m so excited that I’ve been able to spend some more time on my Apple Mac Pro and two 28″ monitors to work on post production.  It’s been such a wild and fast year working with so many great couples, speaking on the [ b ] School Study Hall, preparing for the launch of my online “TV” program; “How To Make The Most Out Of Your Wedding Day“ and even being filmed again on WeTV for David Tutera’s; “My Fair Wedding.“

One of the awesome couples that I’ve had the honour of working with is Rebeca & John.  Their Northridge Wedding was held at the Porter Valley Country Club and all I can say is that it was absolutely stunning.  The weather was perfect, the sunset was delicious AND I even captured a portrait with a shooting star in the sky.  Yep, you read that right, a shooting star.  I had to look at the sequence of photos to make sure that I wasn’t seeing things or that it wasn’t a reflection in the lens.  Be sure to watch for it!

Their wedding day started off at Hilton Woodland Hills, where everyone was getting ready for the big day.  Rebecca was in an absolutely stunning Wedding Gown from Casablanca, funky red Steve Madden shoes & a beautiful bouquet from Van Nuys Flowers.  The bridesmaid’s dresses were from David’s Bridal and John & his entourage were rockin’ their threads from Friar Tux.

Once everyone was 101% perfect, I performed my professional duties as the official “Interiour Rearranger” and swiftly moved furniture around in the Hilton’s lobby so Rebecca & John could have a “first look” prior to the wedding.  Which is a HUGE time saver because once we popped over to the Porter Valley Country Club, we have the opportunity to do 91% of all the formal portraits with the bridal party and family.

From the veritable cornucopia of music keeping the night going by DJ David with Music To Go Entertainment, to my sexy signature Night Romantic portraits – Rebecca & John’s wedding day was perfect.  I would also like to give a huge shout out to Christoper & Ana at Porter Valley Country Club for making sure that each & every detail was met and Rebecca & John’s wedding guests & family had every need exceeded.

So before you check out Rebecca & John’s wedding at Porter Valley Country Club in Northridge, California and you’re thinking to yourself…  Hey – I’d really like to get to know this Orange County Wedding Photographer in Huntington Beach, California that wants to enjoy life to the fullest and capture all the infinite memories that happen throughout the day, 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, here is Rebecca & John’s wedding in a beautiful slide show that I put together.  I hope you’re having a great start to your and check back soon for the next episode of “How To Make The Most Out Of Your Wedding Day” – cheers!

Filed in: West Coast Wednesday

Good morning & happy holidays from Huntington Beach everyone!  I woke up this morning thinking OMG, it’s already December 1st & Christmas is just a shortbread cookie over 3 weeks away.  The first thing that came to mind is where in the world did the year go?  Wholly Nachos & Newcastles!  With all the fantastic people I’ve had the honour of working with, the new friends I’ve made, and all the blessings that have given to me – it’s been an absolutely amazing year!

Then… I sit down at my computer to share today’s holiday festive tunes that are buzzing around in the Agile mind of David Esquire.  But, instead what I saw was all the people around the world with far less than what me, you & probably everyone in our lives have been blessed with.

That reminded me of a couple of things that I’ve done recently.  I’ve donated my time for charity on several occasions, handed out a few $20 bills to people on the street (some holding up a sign and some that looked like they needed a hand up) and done my best to help build up the industry that I love.

But sometimes I think that the butterfly effect needs more butterflies.

So I’m kicking off this month’s West Coast Wednesday Video Of The Week with Band Aid’s “Do They Know It’s Christmas.” I really think that this is one of the biggest times in the planet’s history that great creative minds came together to do their best to make a difference in this world.

There’s too much to share about the project, so please click through the Band Aid link above & you’ll see how many amazing people helped in the project.

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 Orange County Wedding Photographer that really wants to help make a positive difference in this world, 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, I give you the original music video Band Aid and the live performance in England in “Do They Know It’s Christmas.”  So please take 4 minutes to sit back with your favourite holiday beverage during your day, enjoy the video, count your blessings and think of at least one way that you can help make someone else’s Christmas better.  THEN!  I ask you to please Tweet it, Facebook it, Blog about it, Comment on today’s posting, but by all means – help spread the word that you’ve helped contribute in one way or another to making a positive difference in this world. Remember…. more butterflies!

For some, it’s the 11th hour of their human spirit & their clock is ticking down.

PS, I just couldn’t help myself & added the 12″ extended dance mix that you can listen to as well.  I love the spoken word in the song.  It really adds to it – cheers!

Good evening from Huntington Beach everyone!  As my wedding season is starting to wrap up a bit and I’m not shooting up to four days a week, being filmed on WeTV for David Tutera’s; “My Fair Wedding“, speaking on the [ b ] School Study Hall and preparing for the launch of my online “TV” program; “How To Make The Most Out Of Your Wedding Day“, I’m finally able to sneak in a pinch of time on the Mac Pro & be able to work on my photography to share with you.  One of which that I have been excited to share with you is Danielle & Paeydon’s wedding at the Japanese Garden in Long Beach.

Everything was perfect about Danielle & Paeydon’s wedding day too.  Ryan McIntyre, the Executive Chef and his team from Choura Events had the best spread of fun eats, Maria Elena from Signal Hill Florist brought some of the most incredible bouquets that smelled delicious and intoxicating.  Danielle’s Wedding Gown was from David’s Bridal – which was stunning and Wendy Jean provided beautiful makeup for Danielle as well.

Their sunset wedding was on the Lover’s Bridge in the garden for a small gathering of close friends & family.  I absolutely loved how so many of their guests “dressed to the nine’s” as well.  Something that you don’t see very often in Southern California.  So when people come here from major metro cities – the attire is definitely taken to the next level.

Before you check out Danielle & Paeydon’s wedding at the Japanese Gardens in Long Beach, California and you’re thinking to yourself…  Hey – I’d really like to get to know this Huntington Beach Wedding Photographer in Orange County that wants to capture all the infinite memories that happen throughout my couple’s day, 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, here is Danielle & Paeydon’s wedding in a beautiful slide show that I put together.  I hope you’re having a great start to your holiday season and you’re recovering from an amazing Thanksgiving feast too – cheers!
