this was my 2013.
-
by no means am i going to call this a ‘best of.’
i would rather call it more of a synopsis of what i witnessed in the last 12 months…
some of the photos below are from weddings that i haven’t even had time to post yet, so i guess you could also call this a massive sneak peek of what’s to come.
-
to all of my clients. thank you.
we’re now friends. you’ve changed me by letting me step into your lives, even for one day, to witness amazing examples of love. thanks for letting me tell a small part of your story in such a fun way.

to 2014.

the goal:

to put imagery to a poem. to practice storytelling of a different form, rather than tell the story of a orange county wedding day…to create a story from nothing but the words of a poet. the result is ‘oh pioneer! - a personal project.’

the poem:

Come my tan-faced children,
Follow well in order, get your weapons ready,
Have you your pistols? have you your sharp-edged axes?
Pioneers! O pioneers!

For we cannot tarry here,
We must march my darlings, we must bear the brunt of danger,
We the youthful sinewy races, all the rest on us depend,
Pioneers! O pioneers!

O you youths, Western youths,
So impatient, full of action, full of manly pride and friendship,
Plain I see you Western youths, see you tramping with the foremost,
Pioneers! O pioneers!

Have the elder races halted?
Do they droop and end their lesson, wearied over there beyond the seas?
We take up the task eternal, and the burden and the lesson,
Pioneers! O pioneers!

All the past we leave behind,
We debouch upon a newer mightier world, varied world,
Fresh and strong the world we seize, world of labor and the march,
Pioneers! O pioneers!

-Walt Whitman

the results:

 

here’s a quick preview from a recent fashion shoot for an orange county retailer.
dont worry, there’s plenty more to come.
