Photojournalism, Travel, Weddings, Fashion
Had an absolute blast with these two this weekend – they are a REALLY cool couple and definitely one of the more unique weddings I’ve photographed! They invested a lot of time into thinking about their wedding photography and it definitely paid off! We got to shoot in Chino Hills State Park and it was amazing – here’s two images just as a sneak peak! Enjoy =)

Hey everyone! I have a pretty sweet announcement and can’t BELIEVE its for real! A couple of weeks ago my friend Colbie Caillat texted me and asked me if I would be able to throw together an album cover shoot for her!! My heart literally skipped a couple beats and I couldn’t contain my excitement for DAYS! I asked the most incredible photographers and videographer to shoot with me and I had an AMAZING team! We shot from 6am until about 7pm and had such a fun day together. The album cover wasn’t promised, but I just found out it officially got chosen and I’m SOOO excited about it!
A HUGE thank you to Colbie. I have always been one of her biggest fans and she is truly one of the sweetest people I know. A musicians life is amazing in so many ways, but most people don’t understand the hard aspects of being a famous musician. Very long days for months on end, the pressure of staying fresh and new, endless hours in the studio, and the craziness of going on tour. However, somehow… Colbie ALWAYS has time for her fans and is incredibly sweet to them. I’ve known a good amount of musicians that just blow off their fans and get “so over” saying thank you – and for the 4 years or so that I’ve known Colbie, she’s never been rude or mean to a fan.
She has integrity, character, love, passion, and is so talented with her music and writing. She loves her boyfriend with all her heart. She’s funny, smart, and loyal. It’s an honor to be her friend and I am truly grateful for her friendship – thanks Colbie for always believing in me and trusting me with some important events in your life. And with all that, I present to you the official album cover for her third album, “All of you”

I seriously have the best clients in the world, and I don’t say that lightly… 😉 I’ve enjoyed shooting for every single one of my clients, whether it be Colbie Caillat, Andy Grammer, Hyatt Santa Barbara, or one of my many awesome weddings. My clients come up with some of the best ideas and I’m so stoked to be doing what I do! About a year and a half ago, two of my clients (Amanda and Jason‘s wedding) that I photographed in Orange County made this awesome standing picture frame board-
So then two of my clients in 2010 (Brittney and Thomas‘ wedding) that I photographed in Santa Barbara saw that photo on my website and decided to make their own! How cool is that?? And check out her recreation, I thought it was pretty awesome =)
Can’t wait to see what my clients come up with for this year!! SO sweet 😀
And just for fun, here’s an album cover that I got to shoot for Andy Grammer!! I love photographing for musicians and I just photographed an album cover shoot for Colbie Caillat – can’t wait to show you guys those pics when her album comes out in May 😀
And if you’re interested, check out his video here =) It’s pretty sweet! You can see some of the photos I took in the video, look for what he puts up on the wall!
[…] friends. Â Best friends. Â Especially if you’re listening to the likes of Colbie Caillat and Andy Grammer — two musicians he’s photographed album covers for. Â Josh not only photographs […]
I absolutely love the outdoors and everything it has to offer – there is nothing like being out in the middle of nowhere just enjoying nature and the quiet peace it brings. And there isn’t another place like in the WORLD to better enjoy nature than Alaska – I love getting to go up there so often =) And Alaska in the fall?? A serious epicwin.
What makes Alaska even better is I have the BEST clients in the world… who are up for anything! Seriously, the coolest. April and Zac are good friends from high school and literally rocked it out. Enjoy the pics, thanks you too! Can’t wait for December =)
Uuuuummmm I think you rocked it..
I’ve gotten the chance to go to Portland about five times this year and it gets better with every trip! I’m road tripping up there in a couple weeks – we’re going to stop in Yosemite National Park and San Francisco along the way… I cannot WAIT. The last time I was up there I got the chance to photograph a really good friend of mine’s wedding – Ethan Barske. I know him from high school and it was great catching up and seeing him so happy! This guy can sing and play the piano like you wouldn’t believe… so talented. Anyway, congrats you two, I wish you the best!!
beautiful!
astami - oh dude… you killed it! awesome shots! i love the contrast of night and day!
Megan Heath - JOSH!!!!!!!!!!!
You are incredible!!!! Best decision we made for the wedding was you!! These are phenomenal and we can’t wait to see the rest. 🙂
Sonya - Josh……you are amazing and I can’t wait to see the rest of the photos! You were so calm and cool and I enjoyed you hanging in the kitchen, eating fresh chocolate chip cookies, while all the craziness was going on! 🙂
