Art District Wedding, Downtown Los Angeles.
When you think of an iconic California wedding, what comes instantly to your mind? Perhaps a sunset wedding along the beaches of Santa Monica? Or a rustic farm house set in the hills of the wine country surrounded by vineyards bursting with grapes? Maybe even a fantasy wedding in Disneyland with all the attendees wearing mouse ears?
All those are indeed iconic of California, but I would argue that the wedding that best exemplifies what it means to an Angeleno would be one that takes place on the streets of L.A. with all the hustle and bustle of daily city life: people living rushing to and from work, cars honking at each other, street vendors peddling their wares, bystanders, onlookers, and well wishers approaching the bride and groom and giving them their congratulations… Among this chaotic scene with, Toni and I were challenged to take the best pictures we could to capture the essence of the bride and groom’s special day - challenge accepted!
We think that our images speak for themselves and just goes to show that at the end of the day, beautiful memories can be captured just about anywhere as long as there is genuine love and connection shared between the bride and the groom - and love and connection they had in spades!
