Will You: Engagement Shoot

This couple, Nicole and Phil, will have the most elaborate and breathtaking wedding I've ever done, and as the bride says, "It will be full of surprises". She's Cuban and he's Italian. She's a fashion designer and he's a financial planner. They met in college at USC and are about to be joined as husband and wife at the beautiful Mission San Fernando with a cocktail hour, dinner, and dance party reception at the secluded Hummingbird Nest Ranch, right in Simi Valley. I didn't even know this treasure existed, hiding in the hills. It's a sight to see and I can't wait to show you photos of the big day. In the time being, enjoy some of the engagement photos by Jasmine Star who I can't wait to meet and work with.
A few things to look forward to at this wedding other than the beautiful fuschia flowers and hundreds of candles are the food, the signature cocktails, the photo booth, the cigar roller, the mojito bar, the Rock Star bar (a client of the bride), and the live salsa band plus DJ. It will be spectacular.

Fairy Tale First Dance

When my parents told me about this wedding they went to where they saw the most romantic first dance they'd ever seen, I just had to share it.

As the couple entered gracefully onto the dance floor and began to dance their first dance as husband and wife, suddenly, as if by magic, the floor is transformed into a cloud and bubbles are raining from the sky. It was a fairy tale first dance.

This affect can be used at any wedding and is fairly inexpensive. You can rent a bubble machine from any rental company, From Ventura Rentals it's $30. Then you can purchase dry ice, which is no more than $20. So for less than $50, you could have a fairy tale first dance that people will be talking about for years to come.

Congratulations to my neighbor Kim and her husband Travis (seen in photos) on beginning their new life together as husband and wife.

To see more photos of this wedding just let me know and I'll give you a link.
