09.10.11 Nina + Leonel

Ceremony: St. Dominic Church. Los Angeles
Reception: Marriott Los Angeles
Photography: Micah & Megan

A wedding in Eagle Rock with the reception following in downtown LA. Our couple were not allowed to say their own vows in this very strict Catholic church, so we decided to somehow incorporate it, or actually, make it the framework for our same day edit film. This way they can always look back and hear what they’re hearts truly wanted to say to each other on this, their special day. Congratulations Nina and Leonel.

09.03.11 Michelle + Bryan

Ceremony: St. Lorenzo Catholic Church. Walnut, California
Reception: Hyatt Regency Long Beach

Our bride, Michelle, was a Los Angeles Laker girl during the Laker’s last back-to-back title wins..and Bryan, her groom, is a big Laker fan and also her biggest fan. Well, I guess, almost every single one in the room that night was a Laker fanatic, including myself and and our team. So, to our beautiful Laker couple.. thank you so much for having us capture your special day and congratulations!!! Like winning back-to-back championships, you GOT YOUR RINGS! side by side..

Choosing the song from the couple’s list was tough for us cause we wanted to do a fast-paced Same Day Edit. But, the clips we got together on the day actually blended pretty well with our couple’s song choice for the edit. Here’s the film we showed at their reception..
