Devon and Phil

She is a contemporary country music artist in Los Angeles, who also spends her time writing songs for other new artists in a variety of genres. He is a lead singer for the pop band School Boy Humor. They are Devon Dunsmoor and Phil Evans, who befriended each other in recent months. Phil and School Boy Humor happened to be on tour in California, and Devon had asked me to do some portraits of them together.

Sarah - I love the first photo!

Little Devyn – San Clemente, CA

I met Jessie Kim several years ago, shortly after she was married. Her son, Devyn, just recently celebrated his first birthday, and I was honored to photograph his party as well as a little portrait session down in San Clemente. It was the first time I met Devyn, and he’s such a great little guy.

On a slightly related note, if anyone in Southern California is interested in Feng Shui, I recommend that you consider contacting Jessie Kim (aka Ms. Feng Shui) for a consultation.

LA Opera

I had the pleasure of shooting for Special Occasions at the LA Opera Season Opening this year. As always, Special Occasions did a fabulous job of putting this event together.

Tracy Malia Bautista

I’m happy to have befriended Tracy over the past few years. While we’re both from Maui, we never got acquainted until long after we moved away from the islands. It’s always fun to hang out with people who share your roots when you’re away from home. Poor Eugene was caught in the line of fire from our Hawaiian Pidgin. He managed just fine.

Here are a couple of recent studio shots.
