Erin and Michael's Wedding

Erin and Michael exchanged vows at South Shores Church in Dana Point and celebrated their union at "Irons in the Fire" San Clemente Municipal Golf Course.

It was a joy to witness the love that these two share for one another. It just gives you that warm fuzzy feeling inside.

For some personal touches, Erin designed her wedding gown, which was a beautiful fit for her perfect shape. The couple also decided to see each other before the ceremony, and to meet at the same bluff that Mike proposed. It was quite romantic. Another great idea was to have a martini bar carved of ice, serving a signature drink called the Normintini (Norminton is Mike's last name).

Thanks to Andie Martinez for helping out on this one. We had a wonderful time celebrating with Erin, Mike, their lovely family and friends.

YVONNE

I went to Honolulu, Hawaii to photograph a wedding with my dear friend, Ray. The day before the wedding, we jumped at the opportunity to photograph beautiful model, Yvonne Midkiff. She is absolutely stunning! We photographed her in the mosquito infested tropical jungle near Pali Hwy. What a trooper Yvonne was, despite the many bites she endured regardless of being coated with mosquito repellent.

Poor Ray hurt himself by trying to cross a stream with his Converse shoes. He hit a slippery patch and landed right on his booty, bruising his tailbone and splitting his ankle open. Luckily he recovered pretty quickly and did not damage any of his equipment.

I, on the other hand, had a wonderful time with only a few bites and no injuries.
