The PHOTOWALL was a huge hit at Jasia + Daniel’s wedding!  Here are some fun images we got from the night!

If any of my current clients want to add the photowall to their wedding packages I’ll do it at a discounted rate so just shoot me an email!

This is how Jasia + Daniel felt after a long day!

APRIL + JASON | WEDDING

October 14, 2009

I went to church with April + Jason when I lived in Irvine.  Although I didn’t know them too well throughout college I was so thrilled when they hired me to shoot their wedding.  Even at their engagement session I had a feeling their wedding would be something special!  I feel like I’ve gotten to know them so much better throughout this process and I can see how they’re such a perfect fit for each other.  It was so sweet to see how Jason was so attentive to April on their big day.  He constantly asked me how she was doing and if she needed anything.  He said he just wanted everything to be perfect for her!

Get ready for a mega post!  There were just so many moments I wanted to share it was hard for me to narrow it down to show on the blog so I figured why not just post everything I want?!

I want to thank Crystal for helping me out that day!

April made all the centerpieces!

Putting a wedding dress on usually takes everyone’s help!!!

They decided to do a first look.  It was cute because Jason really wanted it to be a first look so he walked backwards all the way down before he turned around to see his beautiful bride!

For a second they couldn’t find the ring!  Everyone thought they were joking around but suddenly Jason picked up something off the ground!!!!  PHEW!

The bridal party entrance was hilarious!

April + Jason treated the guests to a few songs throughout the reception!  They were really good!!!!

Instead of clanking the glasses for a kiss they told the guests they would imitate whatever the guests did.  Their guests were not shy!!!

They had to do a combo fo these two kisses.

These kids had enough of the kissing!

They did the traditional Korean ceremony called Paebaek after the reception.

I recently did a photo shoot for a clothing store called Pretty In Pink.  They sold really cute clothes and accessories for women, plus size, and children.  It had the vibe of a Forever21 store, but I felt like it was more organized.  There are two locations in NorCal.  One in San Lorenzo and one in Dublin if you’re ever looking for somewhere new to go!

I’m excited because some of the photos I took are going to be featured as an advertisement in East Bay Regal theaters during the pre-preview time!

CHARLOTTE + PHILLIP

October 5, 2009

Charlotte and Phillip are such an awesome couple.  I love hearing stories of my clients.  It’s funny how love can find each other from across the world.  Although they’re both originally from Hong Kong, they met each other when they ended up at the same college in Boston.  They’ve been together since college and both moved out to California where the weather is more forgiving =)

They’re getting married in Hong Kong, but I was excited to be able to do their engagement shoot!  Again I can’t emphasize enough how windy it is all the time at the beaches in NorCal!!!!  I’m just happy we were able to find little nooks where we could escape!

I need to mention how much I loved Charlotte’s hair!  Her make up artist did it in a way she had a updo at first and in the car she just took it out to have her hair long!  I thought it was so clever how she could have two different hairstyles in one session!!!  If you want the make up artists info here it is!  Stephanie Lau kawaiinee@yahoo.com
