Los Angeles Wedding Photography – David & Emily – 04/10/10

Last Saturday I had a blast capturing Emily & David’s wedding day.  The day started off at the Embassy Suites in Downey, with Emily getting ready.  By the time we left the hotel and headed over to Moravian Church for the ceremony, the forecasted clouds started to thin, and the sun started to peak through providing some beautiful light.  The day ended with a  formal reception at Rio Hondo Country Club.

My friend Brian Hamilton of Suite M came to assist me for the day. It was such a blast working with him, I hope we can do it again soon. Not only did Brian assist me but he also connected me with this fun couple. Brian is the owner and main photographer at Suite M Photography. Among being an awesome photographer, he also is an all around great guy. He is the first person I recommend if I am already booked.

Here are just a few of  my favorites from Emily & David’s wedding.

Downtown Disney Engagement Photography – Cesar & Natalie

On Easter Sunday I headed over to Downtown Disney in Anaheim to shoot Cesar and Natalie’s engagement session. We managed to get the session in between a big earthquake and a rain storm. Even with these natural speed bumps the crowds were still out in full force making it challenging to find locations without a ton of people around. Easter along with Christmas tend to be some of the busiest days for Disneyland. Here are some of my favorite images from the shoot.

A few at Disney’s Grand Californian Hotel & Spa where Cesar & Natalie will be getting married this fall.

The runway at Vibiana just before the start of the show. I would love to shoot a wedding at Vibiana, it is such a beautiful venue. Hopefully that opportunity will come sooner than later.

The show started off with outfits made out of 85% paper. It is incredible what the designers could do with something so ordinary as newspaper. The designer is lsted above each image.
