I’m on a Boat | Reeden & Marc

June 8, 2012

Hello everyone,

I hope everything have plans for this upcoming summer! The weather here in sunny Los Angeles is getting hotter everyday, which is a good and bad thing. The brighter part about the heat wave in Los Angeles is that beach season is coming up. Unfortunately, the drawback about the heat in Los Angeles is the whole sweating part while at work photographing weddings! This next wedding entry is with my beautiful couple, Reeden and Marc who had flow all the way from Alaska to host their intimate wedding here at Electra Cruises in Newport Beach, CA. Here is a quick summary about this pair before we continue with their wedding at Newport Beach. Marc always wanted to look cool, yet dangerous at the same time. With that in mind, their engagement photography session at Downtown Los Angeles revolved around the idea of the legendary James Bond – 007. For Reeden and Marc’s wedding, they wanted to look just as stylish and cool at the same time in their wedding pictures!

This stylish young couple all prepped up and dressed to impress at their designated suites at a local hotel and “wowed” their wedding guests as they walked down the aisle. From one photograph after another, there were so many wonderful memories and shared laughter recorded. Reeden and Marc envisioned their wedding to have a classic twist with the bird cage veils and all. Even for their portrait session, we swung by a local vintage themed cafe for some wedding pictures once Electra Cruises docked at Newport Beach after the wedding was over. Management at the cafe were gracious enough to clear the floor for some awesome wedding photographs around their booth and bar. They even made Reeden and Marc a nice milkshake to add into their theme! Check it out!

With the extra time before all the wedding guests arrived to Electra Cruises, we took Marc and his boys out for a quick portrait photo session on the streets and alongside of the piers in Newport Beach.

After the wedding ceremony was over, Electra Cruises taxied along Newport Beach around the piers and Balboa Island while the wedding guests enjoyed their night. While the wedding guests mingled and laughed the night away, Danny , Phebe , and I took Reeden and Marc on the top deck to start off their wedding portrait session.

Singing in the Rain | Mina & David

October 6, 2010

Today is a rainy, yet pleasant day in Los Angeles. My car has a free wash and I get to stay dry indoors while listening to the tapping of the rain drops against my window. Ironically, my first blog entry of today will be about a wedding that was hosted during the peak of rainy season last year! It was a chilled rainy afternoon when Mina and David hosted their wedding on Electra Cruises in Newport Beach, CA. Even with the constant rain, it did not dampen the mood of our lovely wedding couple. We were fortunate enough to have a few minutes of dry spouts in between the rain clouds to snap a few wedding portraits before everyone got drenched again. Good thing there was a Pavillions near by where we purchased all their umbrellas to keep the wedding party dry.

Skulls and Bones | Landon & Robby

December 28, 2009

Who knew that integrating skulls and bones on a wedding cake can be so tasteful? Landon and Robby’s wedding was hosted at the beautiful Electra Cruises venue in Newport Beach. I had the opportunity to photograph weddings on these yachts in the past, but never had I seen the entire interior of the yacht decorated in black drapes paired with black bows and chair slips! These two love birds really have an eccentric taste in life. Even though everything was decorated in black, they still kept the tradition of a stunning white wedding dress. Landon actually designed her own wedding dress too!
