A couple weeks ago I shot a wedding in Huntington Beach for Emily & Jose. Their ceremony was small and intimate with only family and the closest of friends in attendance. I felt really honored having been chosen to photograph this wedding for numerous reasons, one of the main ones being that I’ve known Jose for over a decade and it was really great to see him (FINALLY) tie the knot. He couldn’t have chosen a more wonderful lady as his bride. I liked Emily the moment we met. Speaking of meeting, I think Jose has ME to thank for finding Emily. See, Jose and I were marketing majors in college and had our first marketing job together after we graduated. From then on, whenever I’d hear of a job opening at whatever company I was working at, I’d give Jose a call – I always enjoyed working with him (and I liked getting the referral bonus :-p ). Well, our last job together also happened to be where Jose met Emily, and the rest, as they say, is history  :-)  Jose, you can pay me back by lugging around my equipment at the next wedding I shoot :-p

Emily and Jose,  I’m so thrilled for you both!  I wish you lifelong happiness together  and a future that’s even more wonderful than you ever imagined…

The sky did incredible things that day:

It’s amazing what people will let you borrow when you’re in a wedding dress!

Happy new Mr.&Mrs. :

This one makes me {sigh}. Love the mood:
