When I was asked by my buddy Paul to help him out on this wedding, I couldn’t pass up the chance to shoot another Assyrian wedding. The getting ready portion of the day was pretty standard until guests started showing up singing and dancing at the brides home.

 

Gorgeous bride.

 

I loved this moment when Jamie pinned the boutonniere on her father.

 

This guy was BOSS. His hat, his attitude, his cane.

 

The guys.

 

They had a pretty big bridal party.

 

My favorite shot of the day.

This weekend, I had the pleasure of helping out my buddy and San Ramon neighbor Augie with this awesome wedding. The day started off with a traditional Vietnamese Ceremony.

After the traditional Vietnamese Ceremony, we headed downtown to get ready for the Western Ceremony, which was held at the Bently Reserve.

 

Well, the big day finally came for Christine and Warren. Their engagement session was a ton of fun, so I knew I was going to be in for a great wedding day. Christine was full of smiles, and her joy radiated throughout the day. Warren was cool, calm, and collected. Thanks for allowing me to be a part of your celebration : )
