Sheiva and Andrew - The Ritz Carlton, Marina del Rey

WOW...where to start in describing this amazing wedding! It was such a relaxed day as the ceremony started after the sun had set. I had all morning to get footage of both Sheiva and Andrew getting ready...it really is one of my favorite parts of the day...and the video of Sheiva's dad walking down the hall giving a big "thumbs-up" as he saw her in her gown is just priceless! Then we had a few hours to capture Andrew when he first saw Sheiva, tons of shots around the hotel, a family photo session, and then more time with the two of them down by the marina. They were both so photogenic...guess that's why I shot endless hours of video!

There was a pre-ceremony cocktail hour with THE most amazing spread of food I think I've ever seen, including sushi chefs and music from a wonderful violinist. The Ketubah signing then followed with a wonderful description by the Rabi of the customs and meanings involved with this ceremony. Then all the guests made their way to the beautiful ceremony site which was lit with candles...as the sky turned dark, the procession music started, and Sheiva made her way down the stairs...everyone erupted into clapping and chanting...it gave me goosebumps!

Here are some highlights from this beautiful day.

Jodi and Michael - Montage Resort, Laguna Beach

Here's a Highlight Montage from Jodi and Michael's wedding production. Everything about the day was amazing! From the ceremony on the lawn overlooking the Pacific, to the cocktail hour with an incredible Martini Luge, to the Reception Ballroom with a killer band...to an "after hours" lounge and DJ set-up in a separate Ballroom...everyone danced and celebrated into the morning hours!!

One of my favorite parts of the day was when Michael danced with his mother (who was responsible for these two meeting)...it was one of THE funniest and memorable parts of the day!

Reception Dance Footage

Here's a sample of our reception dance footage. Every Reception is different...but there's usually one or two guests (or even a Groom) who can be counted on to bust out the moves! Our dance footage ALWAYS utilizes the actual music played at your reception...whether DJ or Band...Enjoy!!

Michelle and Chris - Ritz Carlton, Dana Point

Another fun wedding at the Ritz! I really love how the bride decorated the Gazebo...layers of fabric were hung giving the ceremony location a really different look. A gospel choir walked down the aisle ahead of Michelle and her father...it was a big surprise for everyone...including Chris!! Here are some highlights from their wonderful celebration.
