My name is Trung, which I’m sure you’ve gathered since you made it to my website.  It’s pronounced “Troon”, which sounds like spoon, which is what I find myself frequently mentioning to people who look incredibly confused when I introduce myself. 

I’m born, raised, and still residing in the San Francisco Bay Area with my wife Julie.  You can often find me; at home watching sports, in the kitchen experimenting with a new technique, trying to develop some form of a recipe from a previous experiment, or just finding some form of salty snack to enjoy (I have a weakness for all things fried potato), getting up at an unnecessary time in the morning to catch a sunrise, out and about photographing the local landscape and wildlife, or on an outdoor adventure with Julie.

I love coffee and all things related to coffee. I know you’re thinking, plenty of people love coffee, but I promise you I take it just a little further than necessary. From sourcing green, un-roasted, coffee beans and roasting/developing my own blends (Brazil, Sumatra, and a touch of Ethiopian or Uganda is my go-to espresso blend), to the menagerie of brewing methods we own (I think the count is at 7, not counting the 5 french presses we have individually), I’d be more than happy to talk to you about the intricacies of coffee origins, roasting, and brewing.

Photography began for me as an art to accompany a story but I’ve learned that the best photographs are ones that tell a story on their own. That’s the beauty of wedding photography, it's an opportunity for art to tell a story and create art within the story.
