jaime and anthony on-line bridal album

"within every man and woman a secret is hidden, and as a photographer it is my task to reveal it if i can. the revelation, if it comes at all, will come in a small fraction of a second with an unconscious gesture, a gleam of the eye, a brief lifting of the mask that all humans wear to conceal their innermost selves from the world. in that fleeting interval of opportunity the photographer must act or lose his prize."

-yousuf karsh







i don't ever recall reciting a quote as a post on one of our brides...but i find it quite ironic that i just finished posting this as our "quote of the month". the reason i bring this up is that when we met jaimie and her parents to discuss her wedding day she was outwardly reserved but on the inside she shared in our style and sense of fashion. we came away, yet again, with a renewed passion in our photography and could not wait to share in their wedding day at the skirball cultural center. a dynamic Jewish cultural institution and museum tucked away in the canyons of los angeles, ca.


when it comes to a location of an image, having "listened" to the choices of why a couple has chosen a location, i consider what speaks to me. to some a long, rectangular grey corridor might appear cold and stark but to me the beauty of this lies in the angular lines of renowned architect Moshe Safdie's vision. the building adds height, contrast and drama to a photograph of three beautiful bridesmaids in red.


do you think the architect ever envisioned jaime and anthony's wedding when he designed the skirball?

what warms my heart is celebrating a day in the life of a couple.


"...the revelation, if it comes at all, will come in a small fraction of a second with an unconscious gesture..."
i think this is evident in our photography.
