LA! / Annie & Eric's Wedding

So I was supposed to stay at my friend/former headshot client's house when I arrived in LA. But the night before I found out he had just been burglarized. So I was like, hell no I am not staying somewhere where my tens of thousands of dollars of equipment and priceless memories might get stolen...

So I posted on facebook, "Need place to stay in LA., who wants to host a giant?" And soooo many lovely people responded! I ended up staying with Matt and Adrian one night. And then for the rest of my time I stayed with William up in his epic new home in the Hollywood Hills.


Situated behind the legendary Chateau Marmont, the view was siiiick...


I was in LA for AnnieAli's wedding. But happily I also managed to schedule a bunch of headshot shoots as well during the week.

Wedding day came and Miss Ali looked like the most beautiful bride ever. And this was BEFORE hair and makeup!


She had gotten cute robes and parasols for her bridesmaids...


And her sisters/maids of honor wore matching yellow dresses.


So stunning...


Here's when Annie and Eric had their first look. SO cute.


And then after doing some normal boring family photos, we wanted to have a little more fun...

We tried a few various "tough" poses. And then I had an idea and was like, "Tatyana, can you squat down in front and cross your arms all tough-like?" 

And Tatyana was like, "...you mean you want me to do PRISON POSE?!?!?"

LOL, and I was like, "uh...yes...?"

And she NAILED IT.


Boom! Married!!!!


In order to make her wedding ultra fabulous, Annie had invited the gays.


Of course we knew our role!


There were lots of Brown people on hand as well!


And LAKU.


Jesse and I accidentally wore matching ties. Oops!


The entire wedding was stunning and SO fun.


All in the privacy of their own backyard!


Thousands more photos...but honestly, who knows when or if I'll ever get to blogging those...

Sunday night I took the redeye home to NYC. Landed at 6am Monday. Grabbed my car. Booked it back into the city for a 9am wedding consultation. Then did an actor's headshot shoot at 10am. Met up with Conlix for lunch. Then hopped in my car and drove 5 hours down to Delaware where I've been shooting product and model photos for Smathers and Branson the last couple days. Tomorrow is our last shoot day and I'll be heading straight back to NYC for another wedding this weekend. And then taking off for San Francisco for a wedding next week!

Whew! Whirlwind! Can't believe I actually got the time to even post this entry.
