Mary + Peter were married on March 21st at Calamigos Equestrian (great venue by the way!). I loved how fast the day went by, not only did I have a sweet time with Mary + Peter, but I was lucky enough to have Denise Bovee and Emily Ruth by my side. A few days prior Justin had sprained his ankle so I was anxious to find an awesome assistant and great second shooter so he wouldn't have to work, I was thankful these girls stepped up to the plate and did quite an amazing job!
We started the day off at a nearby hotel for a short and sweet tea ceremony. Then we headed to the Downtown area of Burbank to snag a few quick portraits before we headed over to the venue for their wedding ceremony.
I really liked the hair piece Mary wore that day, it was a flower decal made out of feathers and rhinestones.
My favorite shot of the day!
A sweet little moment of Peter with his groomsmen before the ceremony began.
Until Mary + Peter's wedding, I never really appreciated the symbolism that these next two images show, both are so similar, but so different in significance. See if you catch my drift:
Dad walking bride down the aisle...
Husband walking bride away from the aisle.
...And everything in between.
These next two images show one of my favorite moments that I've captured at a wedding reception, as Peter + Mary made their grand entrance Peter immediately welcomed his bride with a song, "I Do" by 98 Degrees, and he did a flippin' good job too! I had no idea that Peter had this trick up his sleeve and neither did the rest of the room, it was great!
Please forgive this last image. 1. I was using a crazy wide lens and 2. it was the end of a fun long day and I think it shows. Anyway, posting it seemed like a must! Left to right: Emily Ruth, Mary, Me, Peter, and Denis Bovee.

Seeing those two images juxtaposed is kindof fascinating...I'm a pretty huge dork about weddings and I think those symbolic acts are pretty important - I'm going to have to try and shoot them the same the next time we're out :) Great, amazing, awesome set of photos as always.

Technical question: in your favorite shot from the day did you use any extra lighting like off camera flash or was it all natural?
