Carissa + Michael || Married || Highlight Video

Tears and laughter filled the crowd during Carissa Rae and Michael’s vows to each other last week. Maybe that’s what you get when you put two artistic people together, maybe that’s what you get when you put two people who are in love with one another as much as they are together. In one day, I was personally able to witness that there are indeed two people out there in the world who fit so perfectly together. As they day progressed and we moved from the getting ready part of the day, to the ceremony, to the reception, I couldn’t help but feel as if I were in the show “How I Met Your Mother”. Everyone that I had encountered, friends, family, and neighbors, had something to tell me about them, and I followed their story to where they are now. All that running around in a grocery store paid off Michael! Come and relive their special day with us one more time through this video!

Tina + Chris || Engaged || Hermosa Beach

Justin and I, or let’s say mostly I, haven’t been active at all in a while, so this weekend with Tina and Chris was a definite change in my everyday lifestyle.  You could say that they’re the opposite of your typical bride and groom.  Instead of using their time working to look their best for their big day, they actually have to sacrifice their exercising time to plan this wedding.  As volleyball enthusiasts and party animals go, Tina and Chris definitely know their way around a game in the sand and a game flipping cups.  We hit up the town of Hermosa Beach and found ourselves crawling and lurking in every kind of nook and crevice we could find.

Carissa Rae + Michael || Married || Teasers

This weekend we were blessed to capture Carissa Rae and Michael Alvarado’s special day. Friday, on their one year anniversary they celebrated with their close family and friends their love for each other in a very intimate and memorable celebration. Their family and friends we’re extremely welcoming and incredibly easy to meld with and I was able to catch up with some old friends as well. I couldn’t have asked for a better day and for better opportunities with our photo and video coverage. We were able to mix our modern and quirky style with the vintage/dapper look that Carissa and Michael embodied. Here are just some of my favorites from Friday, but there really were too many good ones to choose from. Stay tuned for our highlight video and the rest of the photos in the coming weeks, but if you’d like to see more candids from the day, check out the hashtag #uswedding2013. Don’t forget to check out their music at haveyouheardofus.com and their respective youtube sites. Enjoy!
