This past Saturday I had the privilege of shooting with the beautiful and talented Jessica Verma. We headed out to the hills overlooking Pasadena to an AMAZING home overlooking all of downtown Pasadena. The lighting was seriously stellar ALL DAY and the bride and groom were adorable. Gene had an uncanny ability to get Emily to laugh - especially when he asked if they could keep "practicing" their first kiss as husband and wife...
Look how adorably in love they are! I love it when couples can relax almost completely in front of the camera and enjoy each other's company. It means I get to see a lot of that "something special" between them. It was especially obvious with Gene & Emily.
The house was like a miniature Getty Museum (not even that miniature either - it was pretty huge) and fabulously modern. It also had very extensive and lush grounds. These were taken a a cute area off the west side of the estate.
This was one of the MANY amazing art pieces on the wall. Incidentally, this is also why I love my D300. Nikon glass is fantastic and the new sensor (with a few custom settings especially) has been producing the most vivid colors I've ever had straight out of camera. :-)
Another art piece that caught my eye was the REAL Picasso in the entry way of the house. I had to take a shot of it. Especially since it was so different from what I normally think of when I hear the name Picasso.
Back to the cute couple. They were sharing a sweet moment over their sweetheart table.
I thought this mom and her son were so adorable. And you can tell where her son gets his hair from. :-) I love it when little kids have curly near-afros...
Look who else showed up to the wedding (I'm not sure if this counts as some of the modern artwork, but they also had a Pac-Man room in the house too...)
Check out the view behind them. ;-) It was fabulous!
Another sweet moment during the ceremony
One final shot.
Congrats to Gene & Emily! It was a beautiful day!
