Katherine & Ron: A Southern California Engagement. Part One.

May 7th, 2011

A few weeks ago I received a phone call from Ron asking if I would be available to do a beach style engagement session somewhere in Southern California followed up by a two-part engagement session in Colorado. I can honestly say that I was caught off guard by the request for a three part engagement session but I am sure glad that Ron did call as Julie and I had a blast with Ron and his lovely fiance Katherine this week!

 

A few weeks ago I received a phone call from Ron asking if I would be available to do a beach style engagement session somewhere in Southern California followed up by a two-part engagement session in Colorado. I can honestly say that I was caught off guard by the request for a three part engagement session but I am sure glad that Ron did call as Julie and I had a blast with Ron and his lovely fiance Katherine this week!

Only two words are needed to describe Katherine and Ron’s engagement session: fun and daring. Not only did Katherine and Ron kill the camera with smiles, they did so with some bravery when a rogue wave gave us all a good scare. But Ron and Katherine both hung tough and in the end we came out with some great shots because of it. Thank you Katherine and Ron for the great time! You guys rock and I can’t wait till June for parts two and three!

Nelsy + Jeff: An OC Engagement

September 20th, 2010

One of my favorite things about being a photographer is meeting others who love photography as much, if not more than I do. One of my favorite things about being a wedding photographer is working with couples who love and value photography as much as I do since that makes me even more excited about shooting their engagement and covering their wedding. I personally believe that your most treasured photos will last a beyond your lifetime and the stories from your photos will read like a book to the future generations.

I personally believe that your most treasured photos will last beyond your lifetime and the stories from your photos will read like a book to our future generations. So when I met Nelsy and Jeff and was told that photography was one of the most important aspects of their wedding day, I had a feeling that we would get along great. Though I can’t say the same about the bee that I had the unfortunate pleasure of running into during their engagement session. All I can say is that I’m lucky I’m not allergic and I’m thankful I was the one who was stung instead of Nelsy, Jeff or my lovely assistant Julie. With that being said, enjoy the photos and I can’t wait for 1.14.11!

Dina + John: A Denver Engagement

June 7th, 2010

I met Dina sometime during my third year in college through my good friend Tean (who’s wedding I was also in and partly shot). Since then we’ve come a long ways as we’ve both served as Co-Captains for the Spirit of Cambodia Dragon Boat Race Team with whom we’ve won both Gold and Bronze medals [...]

 

I met Dina sometime during my third year in college through my good friend Tean (who’s wedding I was also in and partly shot). Since then we’ve come a long ways as we’ve both served as Co-Captains for the Spirit of Cambodia Dragon Boat Race Team with whom we’ve won both Gold and Bronze medals with, served as Counselor Coordinators for the Cambodian Heritage Camp and volunteered to help with countless of Cambodian New Year celebrations in the Denver community. So needless to say, we’ve both become pretty good friends since we first met way back when in college and when I found out that she was engaged I couldn’t have been happier for her. I should also add that because of our long running friendship, I was proud to have been asked by Dina and John to cover their wedding and shoot their engagement portraits.

So as anyone in Denver knows, the weather in Denver can turn real funny in a hurry. The day of Dina and John’s engagement session was no exception as the weather really did a funky number on us as far as the temperature goes. The day started off pretty warm which led us all to believe that we were probably going to roast for the rest of the day only to be surprised when the temperatures turned mild as a nice high overcast cloud layer rolled in. That didn’t last long though as the winds picked up and the temperatures dropped from a warm 75 to a chilly 50 degrees when we arrived at our next location in the foothills of the Rockies. Fortunately for me though, the weather couldn’t stop Dina and John from toughing it out and finishing the last few shots we were trying to create.

But that’s enough from me, I’ll stop talking so that everyone else can enjoy the photos. Congratulations guys and I can’t wait to cover your wedding next year. Enjoy!

Classic. Elegant. Timeless.

Classic. Elegant. Timeless. When all is said and done, when the last dances are danced and the last toasts have been toast, there will only be a select few keepsakes left from your special day and a wedding album should be one of them. A lone photo gets lost, a CD or DVD scratches but a high quality wedding album will stand the test of time. With the amazing bookbinding skills of a 70 year old company and a series of custom designed spreads, the story of your wedding will be retold in a manner that no set of loose prints or images on a CD or DVD could ever tell. Because of this, I truly believe that a wedding album is the best medium to retell the story of your wedding.

At Sojourn Foto, we are proud to offer a variety of high quality Flush Mount Albums from Leather Craftsmen. From Classic Leather to Japanese Silk, each and every one of our albums is designed in house and our clients can choose from many different sizes and styles. Since no wedding is ever the same, neither are our albums. For that reason, Sojourn Foto’s albums are classic, elegant and timeless.
