The website is up!

This has been a year long project for me and it is finished. Sweet! I am even going to attempt to keep this blog updated. This year has been very good for me. I met my girlfriend Jacqueline and we have had so much fun this summer. Someone who loves nature as much as me and is patient while I photograph it and once in a while will even model for me!


Then the photography has been amazing. I have some amazing friends who do amazing things in amazing areas that are a blast to photograph. Also, I shot a lot more commercial jobs this year for Avia, AND1, NSS, and X Games which are some of the bigger ones.
One of my favorite shoots was a lifestyle shoot of Reid Priddy, an Olympic volleyball gold medalist.

The photography can be viewed at http://www.reidpriddy.com/ Another exciting shoot was for Oggi's Pizza and Brewery where I photographed Ladainian Tomlinson of the San Diego Chargers for an advertising piece. You may even see some of the photographs on the side of San Diego public buses.


Most of my summer though has been consumed with wedding photography. I work with True Photography as a photographer. True Photography is based out of Solana Beach and is a elite group of southern California wedding photographers. You can view my wedding photography at www.truephotography.com/michael/ It has been a lot of fun. Earlier this month I got my first helicopter ride into Paradise Point in Mission Bay with the bride and her dad. Nice grand entrance, huh? We took off at San Diego Airport and flew up to La Jolla and back down on the coast. It was so cool to see some of my surf spots from above.
Well I am going to do my best job to keep this updated. So far, so good.
