Hey there! My name is Becker and I am a wedding photographer from Orange County, California who specializes in capturing relaxed portraits, amazing details and real moments for the coolest brides and grooms on the planet. This blog follows both my personal and professional life, and features images from the weddings I shoot, the places I travel and the friends and family members that mean so much to me. It's basically like my own personal photo album combined with an information source for my current and potential clients and a source of inspiration and education for other photographers. This site is a little more informal and I just want to give everyone a sense of who I am and what I am all about. Thanks for visiting.

alternative landscapes   07.31.2007 I try to get out and shoot for myself at least once a month and go on some sort of photo field trip, just to shoot just for the sake of shooting. I even have a website for my personal work. But my friend John Mireles, who is one of San Diego's most acclaimed wedding photographers, has his own gallery for his personal work and I am a tad jealous. It's called Alternative Landscape and it's... 7 comments  |  see full post >

big shoes to fill   07.30.2007 Attention photographers in the Southern California region!!!! I am looking for a new second shooter for the 2008 wedding season. As some of you know... the fabulously wonderful and uber talent Marisa Holmes, who has been working with me for the last 2 years, and who is doing so well... that we have made her an associate photographer and she is shooting weddings for my studio on her own. She is... 14 comments  |  see full post >

The OC Fair, Video Blog Entry #1   07.27.2007 Hey Everyone, Happy Friday! This is my first attempt at video blogging, where I actually shot and edited the entire video myself without looking at the instruction book once! I hope no one gets sea sick from my unsteady hand. Anyway, a few of my friends headed over to the OC fair the other night for food on a stick and other deep fried goodness... nevermind... just watch the video: ... 17 comments  |  see full post >

Massaging in Photoshop, part 2   07.26.2007 Be sure to scroll down and read yesterday's post before you read this one. SOTC (Straight out of the Camera): 27 comments  |  see full post >

Massaging in Photoshop, part 1   07.25.2007 Along the same lines of yesterday's post, and revisiting the "before and after" post on my old blog, I wanted to talk about the subject of Photoshop, and how it relates to wedding photography. I am putting this post in the photographers section, but it is certainly applicable to all of my clients (as well as anybody else who hires a professional photographer). DISCLAIMER: As with all subjective... 37 comments  |  see full post >

oops   07.24.2007 Every once and a while, there are happy accidents when taking photos. I was just editing some photos from a couple weeks ago, and I found a few shots that were originally deleted because they were a tad blurry. But after a little massaging in Photoshop, I kinda like them. A great photo doesn't necessarily have to be technically perfect... as long as it conveys emotion... it doesn't really matter... 38 comments  |  see full post >

July 21 wedding wedding at the island hotel   07.23.2007 Last Saturday Marisa and I shot a wonderful wedding at the Our Lady Mount Carmel Catholic Church on the Balboa Pennisula followed by a lavish reception at The Island Hotel in Newport Beach. It was a little overcast which I love because it keeps it cooler and provides some nice soft like which is awesome for photos. Mark's Garden provided the florals and it was just one of those weddings that... 7 comments  |  see full post >
