Conlix Wedding!

The past weekend was a Conlix Wedding Extravaganza.

We had rehearsal for the entire wedding party.



Then we had an Indian Sangeet Saturday night...



And then the wedding was on Sunday.

Our groomsmen line was funny-looking. Which one of these is not like the others?



Beautiful wonderful weekend for a beautiful wonder couple.


Hundreds more pics to come!

American Ninja Warrior

Some of you might remember Dorian, my very first pseudo-friend in LA.

He recently competed in American Ninja Warrior and will be on tonight's show at 9pm.

Here's a vid from his preliminary qualifier.

People like this make me feel bad about my fitness.

New Jersey Wedding!

Over the weekend I shot wedding #4 of 28 for 2012. (Though I may have picked up a 29th wedding in the process.)

Who knew Jersey could look like this?



My couple again was gorgeous.



The bride was Jen, one of Katie and Megoon's best friends from high school who I've now known for several years.

LOVE shooting a wedding that all my friends are at!



Jen didn't hire a makeup artist, so I had her bridemaids gave her a hand.




The mean priest at the church had very strict rules and would not allow me to go anywhere near the altar for pictures. Lame.

I did still manage to get a few decent shots though.



The boys wore suspenders, which, sans jackets made them look like German lads.



George and his groomboys were all trackstars, so I had them sprint around trying to grab each others batons.



Katie made a lovely bridesmatron.





Yay dancings.



Yay embarrassing speeches.




Yay pop music!







They played One Direction, OBVIOUSLY.







KP girls unite!



Loves a KP wedding!

Congratulations Jen and George!

Next up: CONLIX'S WEDDING!!!! FINALLY!!!!

Facebook Wedding

Well. It was a BEAUTIFUL bride and BEAUTIFUL wedding.

I landed in SF Thursday afternoon in time to rush over to St Dominic's Church to catch the wedding party during rehearsal.



At 5'10" without heels, bride Christina should have been a supermodel.



Unfortunately, her brains got the best of her and from Stanford she went straight to working for Facebook.

Her mom and two older brothers were gorgeous too.

The gene pool is so unfair sometimes.



Everyone had radiant smiles.







And on wedding day, the bride REALLY cleaned up.



We LOVES a little groomsboy!



Loved the bridesmaid dresses and bridesmaids as well.




It was a large wedding.



Everyone was REALLY happy and pretty.








After the ceremony, we headed over to The Bentley Reserve for the reception.

The venue was phenomenal.



And the party was off the hook.

Anytime I went near a bar I'd be forced to a do a shot with whatever group was currently doing them.






Eventually the bartender was just filling up trays of shots and handing them out to the whole room.



The DJ was also one of the best wedding DJ's I'd ever heard. It helped that he played One Direction.



So fun!




Because this was a big Facebook wedding, I made sure to post some teaser photos on FB as soon as I woke up.

It paid off, by 2pm I had a request for another Facebook wedding!



Unfortunately I'm already booked that day. But hopefully I will become the Facebook crowd's go-to wedding photographer.

THAT would be sick.

Damn...I should have had them pay me in Facebook stock.
