Hola! My name is Chaz Cruz and I am a photographer based out of San Diego, CA. My specialties include weddings, fashion and lifestyle portraits. This blog is named after my obsession with "The Office" and of a lovable character named Creed Bratton. He writes about his random musings under a blog titled "Creed Thoughts," so I thought I'd do the same and name it "Chaz Thoughts." So please, browse around and don't forget to leave me a comment or two!

When a groom tells a certain photographer that he is going to wear a Bruce Lee yellow jumpsuit to a wedding, that certain photographer expects the groom to wear a Bruce Lee yellow jumpsuit to a wedding. Haha, but instead, Davey traded the jumpsuit for a traditional Filipino Barong to complement Chor's beautiful cheongsam. We had a great day at the Omni Hotel in downtown San Diego, where Starcross'd Creative also came along and documented their wedding along side us.

I watched the entire slideshow of this wedding and aside from/addition to the images here on your thoughts page, you have amazing images and insight captured in the "whole". Nice.
