Before you you read this post, PLEASE go vote for me as PhotoBiz Photographer of the Year! Thank you so much.

{Welcome to 2010! I’m SOOOOO glad that 2009 is done. I was driving home from Toronto a few days before Christmas and a drunk driver hit me. And not like a little love tap either.. No.. they slammed their car right into me. Sucked..! Oh well, 2010 is going to be excellent, Bali, England, Cuba, to name a few.. not to mention my friend Taylor and I have a sweet internet TV show coming out  very very soon. More on that later. All in all, I’m really excited about the year ahead.

So last year I went to visit Link and Ngoc, my good friends from San Francisco. We had a blast hanging out (not for long enough, I might add) and doing a really great photo session. Link and Ngoc are two of the most loving, caring and amazing people I’ve had the pleasure of knowing, and I’m so thankful to call them friends and have them in my life. Thanks for having me out guys, and I look forward to our next visit. Thanks also to Maria Chang who did an AMAZING job on the makeup and also helped me ALL day.. Best makeup artist I’ve EVER met, for sure!!

Enjoy the pictures.

January 5, 2010 - 2:02 pm Ngoc - To be honest, I had expectations...really high expectations for this photo-shoot. So much pressure and anticipation that I was about to not look at this blog today because I didn't want to ruin the perfect time we had doing the shoot. Then Link asked me and I gave in. Man, I don't think I could have ever imagined how awesome these photos would turn out......not in a million years! You blow me away with the way you capture people, emotions, and moments. I can't thank you enough, John, for coming to San Francisco and doing this for us. L.O.V.E. every single moment, feelings, and photo. <3

January 5, 2010 - 2:03 pm bobbi - beautiful images!!! amazing lighting... phenomenal posing... and AYKM with the locations... you so so so rock! Oh, and that bride... HOT TOWN, USA!

January 5, 2010 - 2:04 pm Link - John, that last photo is stunning. When we were taking that, I remember looking at her and thinking "wow, my wife is gorgeous". Now, looking at the photo again, I can't help but think "wow, my wife is gorgeous." Thank you for capturing that feeling. And I love the photo with the yellow artwork. That looks so epic.

January 6, 2010 - 4:24 am Danny O'Neill - John is one of our all time fav photographers and is our no1 choice in our fantasy wedding list (were already married, used a rubbish photographer but if we had to do it again, John is no1 for us).

January 6, 2010 - 10:15 am Kathy DeMerchant - AMAZING!!! love them all

January 6, 2010 - 1:55 pm Karina - I'm in love with your photos and style. If you don't mind sharing, what do you do in your editing process to make them look this amazing?

January 6, 2010 - 5:13 pm Jordan Nahmias - Dude! Happy New Year! I love these shots, particularly the wide shots. That one on the brick wall is just awesome. Impressive, as always. A good start to surely what will be a successful year in the illustrious career of John Edgar.

January 6, 2010 - 7:52 pm Julia + Phil - Absolutely flawless! As always John, your shots intrigue and capture us completely. I wish we had another event for you to shoot for us. On a side note, Volvo saved the life of the best photographer! We're glad you weren't driving a Kia. That was some damage.

January 6, 2010 - 10:28 pm Pepe - Duuuuude! Are you OK from that accident! Holy COW that looks bad! Well as long as you're ok thats all that matters man. Anyways I just came across your site from flickr and it pretty awesome work my man! By the way I voted for you on Photobiz! TAKE THE CAKE AND RUN!!!HAHAHAHA!

January 6, 2010 - 10:44 pm Sam - Wow. What a beautiful couple of people you have shot, spectacularly well. I have a lot of favourites - the mirrored table/artwork, the shot of Ngoc on grass with branches, the relaxed shot of the couple in front of bridge, the close-up of Ngoc with veil, the moody indoor shots, especially where those fab pink shoes are showcased! Love the look, light and attitude of 2nd last shot on that wall with yellow... Simply gorgeous, all of them. Looks like you all enjoyed this shoot. Bravo! And good riddance to a bad end of year for you! Yay 2010, long live John!

January 7, 2010 - 12:50 am Matt Ebenezer - These photos are awesome John! I was lucky enough to meet Ngoc and Link on their wedding day and they are two of the loveliest people I could ever hope to meet! So glad that you're back on deck after the car crash. Stay well mate!
