Here is Sir Richard Branson at a Virgin Australia brunch organized by the California and Travel Tourism Commission . It was held at the House of Blues in Hollywood. Fresh omelettes were being made at the brunch. Yumm...


These people from the California Travel and Tourism Commission really know how to organize and plan a party! Everyone had a great time, and Julia really liked the entertainment.
They even had an oxygen bar!
Our thanks to Sue Coyle and Sommer McCormick for having us. We had a great time, and we look forward to working with you guys again in April!

AES Holiday Party in Long Beach

AES hired us for their annual holiday party this year at the Renaissance Hotel in Long Beach.
As they requested, we set up our studio inside the hotel in front of the grand ball room.
The party went very well, and our studio ran smoothly as usual.
At the end of the night we had 174 photos printed on site and had all the photos saved on a DVD-Rom for the company to keep.
Thank you Carolyn! It was really nice working with you, and hope to work with AES again next year!
Happy holidays!

"Julia, yes, I received the package of pictures at the front desk.
Please send the invoice to me at the address below.
Thank you so much and everyone seems to be very pleased with their
pictures!

Marymount College Christmas Party


It's the 2nd Marymount College Christmas party! We were hired last year for the 1st Christmas party, and we were very happy to be back working with Tara and Donna again this year.
We had a studio set up in the college's beautiful meeting room with a stunning ocean view.
The photo above is this year's group photo of the lovely founding sisters of Marymount College.

Heidrick & Struggles' Party at Hollywood

Hi Julia and Eddie,

I just wanted to follow up and thank you both for such a great job at our holiday party. The photos are wonderful and our guests really loved that they could take them home that evening.

Best regards,

Kirstin

Thank you Kirstin! It was nice working with you.
Julia is busy printing photos out for guests to take home.

This was a pretty fun night. We were hired to do a corporate Christmas party for Heidrick and Struggles. It was at the Falcon Restaurant in Hollywood. The service was great, everyone was very friendly, and the night seemed to go pretty smoothly.

Eddie took posed shots of the guests and Julia printed them out on the spot so that people could take them home as souvenirs.

If you're ever looking for a bite to eat and you're in the Hollywood area, check out the Falcon Restaurant on Sunset Blvd. It's got a pretty good atmosphere.

Hi Julia and Eddie,

Thanks for forwarding the link and for your responsiveness. I briefly
looked at the photos and they look wonderful! I will definitely be recommending your services to people looking for a photographer in the LA area. And, if we host future events there, I will be in touch. Thanks again
for everything!



Warm Regards,

Testinomy - Grace

Hi Julia and Eddie,

Thanks for the list. I see a few competitors sneaked in! I think everyone
had a great time. The photos were a huge hit!! The next day during the show,
we overheard several complimentary comments about the party, and guys were
showing off their photos to each other!

I know you were all very busy the entire time and then some. We appreciated
all of you staying late and printing so we could display the photos at our
booth the next day. All but one person came by the booth and picked up their
photos. We should have the candid shots posted this week, so maybe this one
guy will check the website and ask for his to be mailed.

It was a pleasure working with you. We'll be back in Long Beach in 2010 for
the same show, so if I'm still doing this, I'd definitely like to work with
you again. I think the photos made a huge difference.(I now have the
reputation as "the guy" who threw the Laker Girls party, so I'll have to
come up with something bigger and better.)

Thanks again!

Grace

Laker Girls Event at Long Beach


We were hired by Magnolia Plastics from Atlanta, Georgia to do a photo set-up at their conference at the Long Beach Hyatt. They hired 6 Laker Girls to perform some dance moves and pose for shots with guests. The girls were very professional.

Since Eddie is a big fan of the Lakers, he couldn't resist the chance to take a photo with 6 of the famous Laker Girls.

Conference attendees, mainly engineers, eagerly lined up to take photos with the girls, and the idea was a huge success. Kudos to Grace McElleny for her brilliant idea! Thanks to Magnolia Plastics for hiring us for this event!
For those who want to download their photos with the Laker girls, please contact Magnolia Plastics.

Aramco Dinner

Yesterday we had to pleasure of photographing a dinner hosted by the president of Aramco. It was at the Madison Restaurant in Long Beach. The invited guests of the evening were Saudi-Arabian students who are studying on scholarships provided by the company. The restaurant was beautiful, and the food was good. The only complaint we had was the lack of parking, and how expensive it was. Otherwise, it was a pretty good evening, and our contact person, Brad Brumford, could not have been nicer or more gracious.

Mary and Fabio

We met with this great couple, Mary and Fabio today, for the second time. This time it was to sign an agreement to photograph their wedding, which is going to be held in Newport Beach this summer. Julia has no problem admitting that she was instantly impressed by Mary. She rides a motorcycle, is a personal chef, and was a machine gunner in the military. "How cool is that?" Julia says.

From what they have described to us, it sounds like it should be a beautiful wedding. We look forward to it!

Marymount College X'Mas Party

We were hired to do a set-up for the Marymount College staff Christmas party this year. It was great! There were so many nice people! The group photo above is of the sisters that started it all at Marymount! Aren't they lovely?

The college not only gave all the staff frames as gifts, but they are also providing them each a 5X7 photo to put in the frames.

Online gallery is coming soon...

Here is Eddie checking the lighting set-up...

California Travel and Tourism Commission Event


The California Travel and Tourism Commission had a media event at the Beverly Wilshire in Beverly Hills yesterday. They asked us to cover the event and set up a green screen studio for some still shots. Here is Julia working hard.



They had all this wonderful looking food and desserts, lots of useful information, and we think the event went really well.

Everyone from the California Travel and Tourism Commission, as well as the Beverly Wilshire staff were very friendly, kind and professional. We'd like to thank them for a wonderful experience.
