I got the pleasure of photographing this wedding with my buddy, Annabella with Asian Bee’s Photography… making this the first “SaraBella” wedding! Lauren and Alex are a dream! Look!

I got to photograph a past bride of mine’s step daughter, Miss Grace, in preparation for her big Quinceañera Ceremony! For those of you that do not know what a Quinceañera is here is a quoate from Wikipedia:

“

Quinceañera in some Latin American countries is a coming of age ceremony held on a girl’s fifteenth birthday, comparable to a Sweet Sixteen celebration.

Planning begins up to a year in advance, and everyone is involved. The family priest will perform a Quinceañera ceremony in church. The girl’s baptismal godparents will oversee the spiritual celebration, and her many friends and relatives will attend to see the recognition she will receive as she makes the transition from girl to young lady in everyone’s eyes.

Quinceañera are comparable in scope and grandeur to weddings, and the party atmosphere that follows the somewhat more subdued religious atmosphere. There is a significant dress, just as with a wedding, and can be just as expensive and unique as a wedding gown. Flowers and decorations are selected to match the color scheme of the festivities, a reception is held at which guests will be served a grand meal and there will be much dancing and merriment for all in attendance. Often, a live band or DJ are hired for the evening and the atmosphere is energetic and fun. A traditional shoe ceremony is also included.”

So, onward to some photos of the lively Grace:

It rained…. it pored…… it flooded…. but the giggles from Lisa made the sun come out 45 minutes before the ceremony to make for a LOVELY wedding day!

Lisa and David are the Master Minds behind my bridal show booth design that so many of you loved ( See Pics HERE ) And are just the most DARLING couple. They are so very natural together and I wanted to showcase that. And they both have the most BEAUTIFUL eyes! I can’t wait for them to have babies… wait, am I supposed to say that?

More photos to come, but for now, here they are and Congratulations Lisa and David!

LB and Nicole are leaving on a Jet Plane today to go get married on the beach, NO FAIR! But when they come back, I get to see them again to shoot their reception at Le Pavillon! We had a blast shooting their engagement session, LB is a nut and Nicole defiantly likes him.   Well onto what you came here for:
