I met Sarah and James there recently to celebrate their engagement and get a few photos of them.  It was a blast, this is why I love my job. Great couples who are absolutely amazing to work with.

Their wedding will be at the exotic Tantalums Restaurant in Long Beach. If you haven’t been, they have killer food and put on some really fun events. Not to mention how amazingly beautiful the place is.  They even include a dock to park your boat. Locally there are some great gondola boats to rent which would make an awesome photograph.

Puddingstone Resorts provides an excellent backdrop with a 360 degree view of the surrounding valley and mountain ranges.
The reception area just down the path was beautifully decorated by Petals & Linens by L, a fantastic job. the reception was masterfully guided by the skilled Dance Syndicate DJ -John Villa.
Check out my blog for links to all of these vendors.

Wendie and Michael chose Green River Valley Country Club in Corona, CA. While wedding photography can be a challenge some spots just make it a breeze. Green River Valley Country Club is one of those spots. Wendie and Michael are also one of those couples that just make photography not seem like work at all. they are fun loving and a blast to work with.
Thanks so guys! Congrats!!

Its always nice when your couple is familiar with photography enough to add as many ideas for shots as Cindy and John do.
Thanks Guys!

The ceremony held comparisons to Texas Hold’em Poker which I have to say is a first. We met at the La Mirada Creek Park. A cute little park with wonderful trees and bridges. The reception was held at the Ritz Gardens. They did a terrific job and so did the DJ.
I had a great time, their family and friends are some of the nicest people I have met. Thanks guys!

Cute together and seem to be the type who are always having a good time. Seriously, put them on the freeway in the worst traffic and I will bet they giggle all the way.
Their ceremony will be held in St. Louis. Should be a ton of fun.
Congrats guys! 0001_IMG_0857 0004_IMG_0932 0002_IMG_0866 0006_IMG_4228 0005_IMG_0934

Formals were taken at the Workman-Temple Homestead, a very cute little park with a gazebo that photographs beautifully. The reception took us to Chino, thankfully with plenty of travel time planned as the 60 freeway was not cooperating. the Chino Fairgrounds put together a wonderful and the food was awesome! Thanks to the couple for convincing me to take the time to try it. As you see at the end of the video, the couple had Banda Serro Mocho play and they seriously were one of the loudest bands I have heard, my ears are still ringing. But they did rock, is was also one of the most awesome performances.
