Those Moments

There are times… when I’m working a wedding and I lose myself entirely in the moment. I find myself glued to the viewfinder in my own little world, and as I move in between guests, I hear music playing in my head that carries me to each fluttering moment. In those few seconds, I can’t miss a shot.

Brian + Eileen . Engaged – Disneyland, Anaheim, CA

Brian and Eileen are getting married in the very busy month of June. Brian asked Eileen to marry him in Disney’s California Adventure where we made our engagement session revisit a couple weeks ago. Brian and Eileen are both old friends from college, of whom I looked up to and followed a similar path in my college tenure. These two have been together forever and I’m honored and privileged to be shooting these pictures and their wedding. I hope you enjoy these few pictures, the entire set is on the slideshow, but my favorites are posted below. Please enjoy responsibly. –

Make-up and assisting by Gaby Manalo and special thanks for the help to Rodel Valdez.

You ugly and stink

Thailand Bests Video

I had made a little slideshow of the shoots I did in Thailand as I finished up the dinner cruise photos which you could see here. I had a great time shooting at Thailand and this will probably be the last of my Thailand posts. Hope you enjoy!

Hey Justin awesome pictures! what setting do you use to take indoor pictures at the hotel and at the church? And what gear did you use to make the pictures look so amazing?

Thanks! I shoot in on shutter priority or manual with a manual flash. I shoot with a 5dmk2 and a variety of lenses. Its really just about balancing the ambient light with a well bounced flash :) just keep shooting with people that know what they're doing and you'll get it

Thanks Justin! I really want to get into wedding photography but I'm just having troubles balancing a slow shutter speed while still keeping the image sharp and not blurry, Do you use a Garyfong collapsible lightsphere?

just keep shooting! practice makes perfect. no point in shooting in slow shutterspeeds if its blurry! but sometimes a blurry picture is a good picture if you do it right. keep it up!
