I actually never met with Tina and Brian when they booked us, Tina wanted to lock in her date as soon as possible and it paid off since just about every other email inquiry is for a reserved date. When I finally met with Tina, I was able to get a lock for the type of shots she wanted and I hope I delivered. Here’s just a few teasers from the 16 hour day with Tina and Brian, much much more to come, Please enjoy!

Sometimes you get to a wedding and you look around and there’s just too many good angles, too many great ideas, and so much good light. Along with a really fun, outgoing, and energetic bridal party, that was the case when we arrived at Monica and Leo’s. The Casa Del Mar, the hotel in Santa Monica, that Monica and Leo tied the knot at, was such a beautiful spot. You’ll be able to see what I mean in some of the teasers below from the bridal suite to the ballroom itself. Much more to write about this place and my awesome couple Monica and Leo who are probably reading this while enjoying an evening with some Mai Tais in Hawaii. Can’t wait to get started on these! Please enjoy!

This is your typical story of random people sitting at the shared table at your local teppanyaki restaurant, meeting, trading business cards, and then as usual, becoming family. You know, because thats how it always works out when it comes to sharing tables. :)
After that fateful winter eve in downtown Fullerton, I never thought I’d see Diana and Gus again. A few months later I received an email from Gus and we reconnected. I gotta give it to the power of those shared tables at Chomps, they really do bring people together. I had such an amazing time with these two and their bridal party in Sacramento last August. We partied like we knew each other since our childhoods and I really hope to run into their friends and family again. I’m sure I’ll be sharing a pizza with Gus and Diana again one day either up in Sactown or back down here. You guys always have a place to stay when you visit, stay close. For everyone else, please enjoy these photos, we did alot of different stuff. Avengers Assemble.
