christmas day

Happy Holidays! Here is a photo from the CAP Wireless holiday party that I did in Ventura
Harbor!

weddings Tiffany & Jason

What can I say about these two people? Their love left me speechless. The way they looked at each other with a quiet touch. Tiffany and Jason's wedding was wedding photojournalism in it's purest form. They were so eager to enjoy it with their friends and family that it left little time to hold still and take the required photos on a list....everything was a captured moment! Every frame precious for it's uniqueness. Thanks Tiffany and Jason for letting me capture and share in your moments of time!

weddings Garey and Stephanie

I had such a great time photographing these two great families, coming together! Stephanie and Gary had to live miles apart while planning their wedding. It was great to see it all come together. Their families are such an important part in their lives, but they wanted to have fun too! It
was the first time I had a first dance be a Hip-Hop song! I was so glad to share in the fun! In the end, Gary's huge posse of guys dragged him to his room and ripped off his tux and had him wait their for Stephanie!

weddings Larissa & Hans

I met this couple through her brother who was photographed by Visual Photography in Camarillo, California, where I photograph high school seniors. Her mother then contacted me to do Larissa's wedding, because Larissa was away at school. It went by so quicky, but we had such a beautiful day, especially since it was December and we were at the beach!

Big Wednesday?

For those of you stuck inside and heard about the waves today, here is some of what you missed! It wasn't that big....

friends.

Tonight we gathered together an AMAZING group of photographers, for a meeting at Ben's gorgeous condo in Ventura. We shared ideas and wine and chocolate! I wish I had taken a photo. Sundance Photography has been such a great part of our lives and we are able to come together to share ideas as artists.

"Big Wednesday"

Twelve years ago, on December 13, 1995, I captured this image of Ventura, California's pier being swept away by 20 foot waves. The photo hangs at theVentura' Pier, in Eric Ericson's restaurant. I have sold it in local galleries along with other surf photos, and now I can offer them directly to you. Please contact me through this blog or my email address: ronniesplace@gmail.com

Today I met with Stephanie and Gary at the Four Points Sheriden in Ventura. They are having 320 guests, and I'm honored to be part of the day.

I then went to Santa Barbara to assist Amy at Vita-bella Photography. We barely beat the rain. The reception was full of detail, and my gear full of sand

My new blog

Welcome to my world, as I see it, through my lens. I've been a photographer since I was 16, starting as a surf photographer, one of a handful of females, who were documenting the sport at the time.

Stephanie and Gary came to me through a dear friend and I have the honor of documenting their special day on November 17, 2007.
