On Saturday, I had the great pleasure of documenting Nicholas and Manami’s wedding at the Long Beach Museum of Art<\/a>.\u00a0 I met Nicholas and Manami in the fall of last year.\u00a0 They are both graphic designers from Alameda, who planned on creating lots of the details of their wedding themselves.\u00a0 They were in town for a weekend, and at our consultation, they spoke of succulents, a colorful color palate, and an intimate gathering of 60 of their favorite people. \u00a0 I knew instantly I liked them and have been looking forward to shooting their wedding ever since!\u00a0 This past Saturday was an absolutely gorgeous day for their wedding, in addition to a great day for the Long Beach Grand Prix that took place a couple blocks down the street. \u00a0 Thinking traffic would be horrible, I left Santa Monica 3 hours early.\u00a0 Turns out, I arrived 2.5 hours early… which was just fine by me!\u00a0 I’d much rather be hours early, than even 5 minutes late.\u00a0 Below are some of my favorite shots from the wedding day.\u00a0 Friends and family can view all images HERE<\/a>.<\/p>\n

The first, is a set of images is Nicholas and Manami’s custom wedding stationary that they created themselves!\u00a0 I especially love the design with the banner, how perfect!\u00a0 It really set the expectation for their wedding… fun, flags, and f-ruffles!\u00a0 Ok, I know f-ruffles isn’t a word…\u00a0 but it kinda rhymed. =)<\/p>\n

When we arrived, Manami was getting ready in her dressing room.\u00a0\u00a0 Getting colored shoes to match a wedding dress can be tricky, but I think it’s super fun and modern.\u00a0 The ruffles on her shoes matched her dress perfectly!<\/p>\n

Nicholas and Manami decided to do a “First Look” before the ceremony… which allowed us time to get these shots of them together.<\/p>\n

Custom fabric balls decorated the isle.\u00a0 These are so fun and colorful, and a great alternative to flowers.<\/p>\n
