Pasadena Ambassador Mansions & Gardens Wedding Photography

We were very excited when the sister (Desiree) of a former Next Exit groom (Arash) contacted us to shoot her wedding.
It’s always a huge honor to be invited to shoot a wedding, but even more so when it is our second wedding for the same family!!
The thing that I remember most about this beautiful Jewish Persian wedding (other than the fantastic couple) was the never-ending displays of food! Literally, there were like 17 different meals in a 6-hour period, all equally fabulous. Slurp!
Every now and again, Adi and I make a special connection with one of our clients, and in this case, Desiree and Dane are no exception.
You can often find the four of us out on date night exploring the culinary Mecca that is Los Angeles. (specifically AYCE Korean BBQ in K-Town!)
