Katherine & Brian

I had the pleasure of shooting a beautiful wedding at the Bell Tower in Orange County over the weekend. Katherine and Brian come from a family of photographers so there it was especially a privilege to serve them all. Thankfully, I didn't seem to make them too nervous with my unusual shooting techniques. We had all had a great time, actually.


Although they decided not to see each other before the ceremony...they came close.


Katherine was radiant and full of life.


Brian was too. Just less...'spinny'.



A classic little hand-off sequence.


Just about to get a view...


The look.


The hand-off.


Full access always makes for better pictures.


See?


It's official!




Spiffy socks? A serious business.


Good times.


Here's a longer-lens version.


If we did do a first sighting...this woulda been the perfect spot.


I can't help but hear old-school romantic music on this one. Look at them go!


A private moment...


Before heading toward the reception.



Almost. We had to stop and make use of this cool-looking space. Besides, Katherine and Brian are all about canoodling when given the opportunity!


A romantic first dance...


...with a big finish.


Proud Pappa.


Gotta have a gittin' down picture in there, right?


It's finally fireplace season. A perfect ending to a perfect day.

I'd like to thank Anna Catalan and her team for doing a great job with the coordinating as well as my second, Zenia Anderson who also helped make the day go really well.
