Some weddings that we photograph are simple and sweet and other are Martha Gone Wild.
For my own wedding (in 2002!) Adi and I went with a Hollywood Nightclub feel and we didn’t invest a lot of time in “creating.” (Don’t ask me how much we spent on our band).

Enter a couple like Amanda and David, who, with the help and love of Angel Swanson, coordinator magnifique, went for it!
From the custom printed everything, to the candles in green peas, from the cake table to the crazy cookie station, and don’t forget the “guestbook” wine bottles. Everything was planned with love.
Top it off with a gorgeously sweet couple, and it’s a perfect day.

Speaking of a perfect day, do I even need to mentioned that it rained during their photos and ceremony??? Nobody stressed and it just added to the excitement. Yes, Rain. In Los Angeles. In July!

What a sweet and beautiful couple. Samantha and Ian had a perfect wedding at the Greystone Mansion in Beverly Hills with the kindest family and a star-studded vendor team! The details overflowed due to the creativity and imagination of Samantha and her right-hand lady, coordinator, Angel Swanson!!
I should probably have split this juicy post into two segments, but I just couldn’t wait a minute longer to show all of Adi’s brilliant work!
