Lizzy and Albert’s Wedding from Justin Element on Vimeo.
You might remember Lizzy and Albert from the video shoot at CSULB that Scott Yoshimoto of Movemedia Production did earlier this year. This October they got married! Their wedding was gorgeous, with over 300 guests and a 34 person entourage for their wedding party, it was the biggest wedding party iI’ve worked with but since there were so many people I knew I’d be getting great shots the entire time. James and I went to Albert’s house first and took pictures of the guys getting ready. They were trying to find movies that were appropriate for the day, after shuffling through Wedding Crashers, Dawn of the Dead (really guys, why did we have to watch this), and Madden NFL ’09, we finally got to the movie that made the most sense. The Hangover. hahaha, it works. Also all over Albert’s house was little notes from Lizzy she left him so he can read that morning, probably some of the most romantic stuff I’ve seen.
Later that day I went to Lizzy’s house and started shooting over there. James that lucky guy got to stay with the guys and bask in the pleasures of Blue Moon and Grey Goose. As for me, I watched the girls put on make-up ;) haha. But I really enjoyed getting to know all the girls, all 18 or so of them! I also got to see Lizzy the moment she put on her dress, so in the end, it was a better choice. I even got some of the bridesmaids holding up my business cards, score one for the jay team.
Lizzy and Albert’s wedding went perfectly as planned and the entourage session was great. The security guards saw it kindly in the hearts to let us shoot even on the trolley. The reception at Michael’s Tuscany room was beautiful also. Thanks so much for choosing me to be part of your special day!
