Marissa & Kevin

were married in Birmingham and had the reception at Oakland Hills Country Club. We finally had a chance to work with Carolyn R. Hefner of The China Closet. We have heard so much good things about Carolyn from other planners. The dinning room was beautifully decorated by David McKnight's crew from Emerald City Designs. We also worked with Ray Anthony who we haven't seen in a while so it was nice working together again.

Real Films...Real Super...

I have been wanting to produce weddings with film for a long time but I have never had the courage. Well I finally stepped up and did it! I just love how film looks. It's just so romantic, so sexy, so nostalgic, so warm, so beautiful. Don't get me wrong, digital video is great especially with HD. But film has a unique feel that can not be duplicated with any special effects...believe me, I've tried.

I am making preparations to launch Don Pham Films next year with film in concert with HD as part of my productions. So here is a film clip for you to enjoy.

I'm a Cool Dad today

Those of you who know me knows I'm a workaholic. I get around 5 hours of sleep per night with all the things I have to do. But don't get me wrong, I'm not complaining. I have been blessed with this crazy schedule and I welcome it. However I do stop working from time to time to spend quality time with my kids. After all, they are the reasons for me to work so hard.

Three months ago I planned to take my boys to a Tigers game without telling them. I wanted it to be a surprise. However, good tickets were so hard to come by cause the Tigers were so hot. In addition, I wanted to go to a day game cause I wanted to pull the boys out of school to go to the game. But the plan went south due to no tickets available other than nose bleed seats. How cool will that be to have me show up at the school and tell my boys "Get your stuff son, we're going to the Tigers game RIGHT NOW" in front of their class mates. My wife thought it was a BAD idea to pull the kids out of school but hey...I wanted to be a cool dad :) .

My prayer was answered when the Tigers added a makeup day game on September 11th. I quicky bought the tickets and boy were they great seats...11th row behind home plate! Yeah Baby!!

I picked up the boys in the middle of class today and they were very surprised. We went to the ballpark and had a great time. One of the rules of the Pham family is, when we go to a pro sport game, we must eat all the junk food we can handle. And boy did we...no dinner for me tonight.

Oh and the score was 13 to 6...Tigers got killed!!!

Katie & Michael

were married at Cherry Creek Golf Club. It was my first wedding at Cherry Creek but I have played golf there many times years ago. The weather was perfect! We worked with Prem and Cheridy from Arising Images again. Those two made us laugh all day :)

Here are some cool pics from Arising Images.
