Wedding at St Vincents Catholic Church

Friends,
I hope all of you had a wonderful Thanksgiving holiday and ate tons of delicious food along with my favorite; apple pie, yum!
Christmas is quickly approaching and I hope that everything is well with your loved ones and friends. Me, I couldn’t be happier!!
I had the pleasure of working with Cynthia and Juan, photographing their wedding. As I arrived at Cynthia’s house, I was just thinking how this was one of my last weddings of the year. :( That kind of made me a little teary-eyed.
You may ask, why? Well, I am not sure if you have noticed, but I love what I do!! I love to photograph people that are in love and to be a witness to such events.
The wedding of Cynthia and Juan was fantastic. They decided to see each other before the ceremony so that we could take more time for photographs. We had so much fun. The church, in which they were married , was so beautiful!! Cynthia looked stunning! Loved her Spanish look; very classy and elegant. Juan looked so handsome and dapper and ready to marry the girl of his dreams.
Special thanks to my dear friend Miguel Pola for referring me to Juan and Cynthia. Also to Rene Miranda for helping me with this event.

I used Doña Margarita's dress as my background, she was her mother.




To honor her mom's name Cynthia chose "Margaritas" for her bouquet

Wedding at the Hyatt Hotel in Westlake Village

The wedding of Sheyla and Ben was a total success. They invited 50 of their closest friends and all of their family members to celebrate their marriage. The ceremony took place at one of my favorite places, the Hyatt Hotel in Westlake Village. The lobby was recently remodeled and they did a great job. When I arrived, Ben was ready to take his pre-wedding photos, so we started right away. We really enjoyed working with Ben, he is quite the model. After I finished with the grooms’ session, it was Sheyla’s turn. As I arrived at her suite, she was just finishing her hair and make-up, so I started photographing her dress, shoes, etc. Then it was show time!! Sheyla looked stunning in her dress and the hair and make-up artist did an outstanding and flawless job!! There is a moment that I want to share; when Emerson looked at his little sister for the first time, he cried. It was such a beautiful moment; it was just a split second so I was glad that I was there with my camera to be a witness of this special moment.
I was so happy to be there! Everything, the wedding, the reception, went as planned. The Malaver family definitely knows how to party. Everyone danced until the party was over. Sheyla’s ancestors are Colombian, just like my adorable husband. ;) The Cumbia was the most played music of the day, and wow!!, Sheyla dances like a pro. I sometimes found myself dancing too, but with the purpose of moving around the room so as not to miss a moment to snap a shot.
Emerson: I want to take a moment to thank you for all of your help in making sure that your sister looked as beautiful as she did on her wedding day. Thank you Emo!!
