Connie & Kenneth | Shin Bu Bridal | Wilshire United Methodist | Wilshire Plaza Hotel | Los Angeles | Wedding

Style.  Kenneth and Connie, has gotten that word down pat.  Their wedding had a grand and classy feel to it all over.  Her dress was pretty amazing, with an extra long veil for cool flying in the wind type shots.  Made for catching some dramatic shots pretty easy.   We got tons of time to shoot with Connie at Shin Bu Bridal in Koreatown, so we had a blast trying tons of shots. 

Thanks Kenneth and Connie, for letting us be a part of your day, can't wait to see how your album comes out!

Guys always have tons of fun on the wedding day.  Most of them probably aren't expecting to have a good time, but guys seem to really enjoy changing together in a big room and acting silly.

Palm trees in the chapel?!  Crazy times!

I don't know what they were talking about, but it was cute.

There was a very cool hula hoop competition during the reception.  They must have cleaned out Toys R Us the day before.

Kenneth showed off his muscles for everyone in this never before seen (by us) game where you squat the bride and scream into the microphone.  The next day, Jerry and I tried to see if he could squat me.  It wasn't pretty.

 They did the Dirty Dancing routine!  I don't know how brides are able to walk in their dresses, much less do THAT dance!  Connie_Kenneth-21.JPG


Cindy & David | Lawrence Hall of Science | New Church | Alumni House UC Berkeley | Wedding

We were there from the very beginning.  Before "D & C" was even conceptualized.  During their incubation process, we saw the signs that something serious was coming along.  As their good friends, we had the joy of watching their relationship blossom into something special.  And to be able to be such an integral part of D & C day was a great honor. 

Can I just say that their wedding was awesome!  So many friends and family members pooled their resources to make this wedding come together.  From the trifecta officiating (3 pastors - his good friend Andrew, bro-in-law Dennis, and father Alan), to the flowers, to the cupcakes, all the way down to the nitty gritty decorations.  That's true love folks, all wrapped up in one fat party!

Cindy's 30 lbs. dress.   It took about five girls to help put it on.  Like Iron Man getting into his suit.  Love this shot!

C & D spelling out their initials with their fingers.  David actually does this pretty frequently, as you can tell by the precision of his form.

Cindy's father's speech was out of this world.  He led us in song and dance to the melody of "Do Re Mi" called "Happy Happy C and D".  With hand motions.  Twice!  The Sound of Music will never be the same again.

I was very surprised when I looked up and saw this.  I still don't know how he climbed up 15 feet with his strapless camera.   -Ingrid

I guess it was worth risking my life for.

The girls stealing Cindy back from Dave.  Dave having none of it.
