seven seven oh seven, OH yea..

Ok. so here are the top 14 images i chose from the day. I'll have a slideshow up tomorrow! I am having a blast going through these images.





This was the coolest dress back in the world!


Both Bridal parties, the guys and the girls had so much energy and sass. I just let them do their thing and got some amazing shots...




I loved the ceremony location, surrounded by all sides with coastal oak trees, I was reminded of Tuscany.

Thanks to Chloe my assisitant, getting a great shot of me shooting the ceremony.


They did an amazing job with the flowers and event design.


I really loved how this couple had so much fun together, it was like it was still their first date!

Meet Comron & Vanida...

This wedding on Sunday in Clovis was amazing. The culture mix was great. Everyone had a blast and it was a blessing to shoot. Comron and I went to College together and went around the state on camping trips back in the day. Thank you guys for having us, it was so fun to be a part of your day.





Jewel, an amazing flower girl, is my newest assistant to the Mike Larson Photography, Inc. Team


Its getting crazy, the groomsmen waited all day for me to throw the camera up in the air, its fast becoming an expected trademark shot. I nailed it in the 2nd shot, but the sharp lens hurt my hand a little when it came down, but thats the battle wounds of the great shots that makes it worth it. Plus the Groom thought it was great, and thats all that matters...

Beautiful Wedding 4.28.07

Matt & Kathleen got married last night and their wedding was really beautiful. It was out at Dancing Horse Ranch In the hills above Paso Robles. Ben Potter with Cana Video did an amazing video of the wedding, see here.



Here are all the highlights of the wedding, I'll post more photos when i get back from Italy in 2 weeks for another wedding out there.

A Beautiful Sunday Wedding

Today we were honored to be photographing Al & Kristin's wedding, here are some of our favorite shots and the stories that went with. They had the most amazing outdoor ceremony. Inside the rustic French restaurant La Provence . The food was great, and the people were wonderful. I highly reccomend this place. But more imprortantly, the story of the couple, the day and all the friends that made the whole event complete. In last October we met them in Hawaii for their e-session, and had an amazing time shooting for 2 days. I'll try and post some of the highlights in a day or 2.

Here they are dancing at sunset under the lights.


Thanks to the winter rain and spring sun, they were able to get lost in the grove of trees and fresh grass. I saw this tree throughout the whole wedding day and finally we ended up crossing the stream to get to the other side, It was really worth it! I am so stoked on the images!




Al looks on at Kristen and her dad as they walk up the isle, you should have seen the range of looks on his face when his beloved bride came down the isle, you can tell how a man loves his woman by the way he is captivated by her when she walks down the isle and he sees her for the 1st time. They are going to have a great marriage.



Getting ready...




The cutest flower girl in the world!


I was listening to this conversation two of the younger bridesmaids were having. Talking about the dress and getting excited for their friend to get married. The desctiptive comments they spoke reminded me of how girls get excited and plan their weddings in their minds from when they were young. These girls have a head start!



There is something so special to a bride when her bridesmaids are surrounding her with love, support and encouragement, while they have fun taking photos before the ceremony. Kristen was really loved, and she will be able to remember that for the rest of her life.



Thanks guys, may God Bless your marriage forever...

Beautiful Napa County Wedding

It has been an honor to be asked to photograph an amazing couples' wedding in Napa Valley California . Julie and Sam are really a great couple. Its really great to be able to work with a bride and groom that have a style all of their own. The process of our meetings, e-sessions and dinner to get to know them have been a blessing to us, and we are so excited to capture them and produce a work of art they would be proud of. Its the start of the their family legacy, Documented as Art. During the Service, they had this cute dog carry the rings down the isle. He was trained and on good behavior, well until he saw Sam, and since he (Ali) had not seen him all day, she jumped up on him during the ceremony. Well, After their amazing ceremony, They had a delicious Reception at The Culinary Institute of America. Thanks to Molly the head Planner at the CIA and Mary and John Ross, who own the amazing 5 Star Events of Northern California, they did a fantastic job with the Reception.
