Birth

Saturday morning a miracle happened. Wylder came into this world!
I got a call on my way home from shooting a wedding. Tricia was in the hospital and the baby was coming.
When I arrived, there was a amazing energy in the air. we all couldn't wait to meet the new man in our lives.
Connie, Joely and Tricia looking at the little man.
A moment like this calls for some Dom!
What an amazing 24 hours of Love, Life and Celebration! Congratulations Byron and Tricia! Thank you for entrusting me to document some of the most momentous times of your lives!

Nicki Aycox

She isn't a bride but I just had to share this photo of her. I just love shooting Nicki! We have the best time and when we shoot, something just happens! She is such an angel. Watch her on Jerry Bruckheimer's new show "Dark Blue" this July on USA.

tails for whales

This is a bit different of an entry from my weddings... My husband Pascal Franchot and I are part of IFAW and this is a campaign very close to my heart. It is called "Tails For Whales" and is to help stop the senseless slaughtering that is commercial whaling. I had the honor of photographing the lovely Amber Valletta last night. Please check out IFAW there are many ways to be involved and they are really doing good in this world in many ways.

creme de la creme

Janie at The Brides Cafe has also selected me as one of here "creme de la creme" in Orange County as well. Thank you Janie!

Oh How Charming!

Recently I had the pleasure to work with the oh so Lovely Lisa Vorce of "Oh How Charming" and the ever so talented and sweet Mindy Rice.

Just look at how they transformed The Rodeo Room at the Beverly Hills Hotel into a dark and glamorous Supper Club.



Lisa added dark hard wood floors. When I first walked in, I could not believe my eyes.


It was a pleasure to work with Curtis from Living Cinema again! He is such a great guy and very talented!


What ever you dream up, Lisa can make it happen!

A special shout out to Laura...we had the best time!
