her wedding gown, I love the way the red lamp gave a nice color contrast.

details
Wedding Details:
Garter – two elements i like most in this photo, color and texture – a hotel chair was used for this garter shot
Rings – we love the rings! simple yet elegant. the golden color is due to the table’s colorcast and is otherwise platinum/silver in color.
Brooch – the underlying garment used here is the wedding’s color theme

anticipation, i can almost hear their hearts pounding

entrance, doors open, this is it!

the church was dark and flash photography was not allowed, however there were pockets of light that created natural vignettes. making the photos, in my opinion, more interesting.

Joe & Leah Engagement Video

December 11, 2007 | Filed Under engagement, slideshows | 2 Comments 

i’ve always tried to make my slideshows on 16:9 aka widescreen format as i assume that they will be viewed again, long after the wedding. by then, i’m assuming most, if not all people are using widescreen tvs. I did however reverted back, as experience has thought me not all projectors and screens are widescreen compatible. i wouldn’t wan’t to risk being unable to play the vid during the reception program just for the sake of future-proofing.

they were an awesome couple to work with, they even provided the songs. it was joy making this vid.

wedding and engagement photos coming up. =)

Wesley’s Baptism

Murphy’s law, “what can go wrong will go wrong”. Venue schedules and availability needed to be changed at the last minute. There is nothing that can’t be fixed. All went well as if nothing happened. Everyone had fun!
