My name is Michael Escalera and I am a Lake Tahoe Wedding Photojournalist. Of course, I travel to many other places as well and photograph bridal and engagement sessions, seniors, families, commercial and advertising projects, and even landscapes in my spare time!
If you or someone you know is getting married then please e-mail me - I'd love to learn more about your day! The nicest compliment I could ever receive is your referral.
This is my regular hangout so if you are a blog-stalker you can subscribe by using the handy dandy RSS feature and never miss a post. If you see something you want to tell your friends about, just hit the "email" button on the bottom of every post! Oh, and if you are a blog-stalker then please leave me a comment on a story that you like...I'd love to hear from you!
Thanks for stopping in - now grab your latte, browse around, check out the images and what's happening, hug someone you know, and say hi to someone you don't know!
Best Wishes,
Michael

I found out that I was accepted by Photographik!
From their website...
"Photographik - the elite photographers network - lists only the most talented and accomplished wedding and portrait photographers in our Directory.
Membership is exclusive and granted only to those photographers who demonstrate excellence in the fields of wedding and portrait photography."
To be considered "elite" and listed amongst some pretty big names on the directory is quite a compliment. Thank you Photographik!

EmailThe New Escaleraphotography.com!
My new website has just been released!
After all the long hours of getting things just right, the new escaleraphotography.com is live and looking great!
The site is designed to suit 20" widescreen monitors and features full frame images and more of a free flowing interface for a better client experience.
The new website is also the launch of a entire new branding. The "ME" logo is being retired and replaced with an emphasis on branding my name as an artist.
At the risk of making this sound like the Grammy Awards, I really need to thank a few people. First and foremost is God for building this business and giving me the strength to get though so many crazy hurdles. He is the reason this business succeeds!
My wife Leah was absolutely indispensable throughout this entire project (she still is by the way - quite a keeper)! She has loved and helped me every step of the way and offered excellent advice on the biggest and smallest of items. You keep me in-line! To my kids, Amy & Austin, for putting up with a lot of long hours from Dad and not seeing him much lately. I had fun hiking with you yesterday afternoon!
To my Dad and Mom who never tired of looking at revisions no matter what time of day (or night) that it was and for lots of love and support. To my brother Mark, thanks for the kick in the rear to get going.
Christa Hoffarth - you are an inspiration and have a ton of patience. Thank you for mentoring me! Trevor & Tourine Johnstone - thanks for letting me whine and giving me so much encouragement. Michael Imus - that was one amazing talk - the dinner was incredible too.
Here are a couple preview images, now head over to the new site for the real show!

Welcome to the new Eblog home everyone!
Best Wishes,
