With all these combined + a very cool couple = An awesome wedding to photograph! Thank you to my second photographer, Nicola and my assistant Jimmy. We had a great time capturing all the fun and special moments of Amanda and Rod’s wedding on September 29, 2009. Congratulations Amanda & Rod! {To see their sweet engagement session taken at the Disney Music Hall, please view them HERE}

It takes 6 bridesmaids to help Amanda getting on her stunning dress. So pretty.

Amanda's ring is in my top three I have ever seen. Nice job, Rod! Such fantastic style.

I love wedding details! Rings, Shoes, Gowns, Flowers.. YAY!

The flower girl was patiently waiting for her turn.

And... It's her turn!

Champagne flute + wedding rings

I love this shot. There's something so calm about it.

My favorite color is green, so I couldn't resist photographing Amanda's awesome shoes against this pretty, green pattern.

So HAPPY! I entered this shot in a photo contest.


Amanda's beach-inspired cake! It was yum.

Here's Rod! Rod has amazing, bright, blue eyes.

The Mariachi Band... SO fun. They set the tone for the cocktail party perfectly!

Break from formal photos...

I love this photo of Rod and Amanda. It really captures their personalities perfectly.

I couldn't resist. Nearly their entire wedding party! Love props.

Amanda worked so hard at making her wedding details perfectly. The shot on the table was from our Engagement Session at the Disney Music Hall downtown LA.

To the beach...

One of our many fun "Thank YOU" shots.

Stroll on the beach... getting a breather alone.

One of my favs. Mysterious yet telling.
