Bridget and Ryan’s wedding took place in Pleasant Hill on March 6th, 2010.

This is our very first wedding where Za actually got to DANCE with the bride while working hahahhaa!! This is such a fun wedding to shoot and I LOVE Bridget and Ryan!! Don’t cha love her bridal party’s different green tone bridesmaid dresses? I think this should be the nicest trend to do multi-color BM dresses.   Leave us a comment if you like their color 🙂 We wish both Bridget and Ryan living happily ever after.

Last weekend, JeZa’ve attended the Stilettos & Scott Robert – One Day Photography Workshop in San Francisco.  On just one day, JeZa learned so much about the art of portraiture, posing, finding natural lights, off camera flash lights from Scott Robert Lim.  The best part is, this is ONLY the FIRST lesson as part of Scott’s mentoring program;  so we really look forward to complete the entire program with all our fellow classmates and can’t wait til the next class on June 11 – in the mood for love.
We just have to say wow!! Not only Scott himself being an amazing teacher, he draws this such wonderful genuine community; classmates all helpped each other to learn such as being each others voice activated light stands, shared ideas and inspirations on photography!! This such a unique community which brings strangers to become friends in just one day!! Ahhh, thank you everyone for the amazing time we had together!! Thank you Scott Robert Lim for coming all the way out here to the bay area to share the elements of “Wow”!!
We really want to share this poem with all my fellow classmates who attended the 4/10 lesson one class and this poem pretty much sums up our feelings after attending Scott’s workshop –
Where will life take you? What is a journey?
A journey is not a trip.
It’s not a vacation.It’s a process.
A discovery.It’s a process of self-discovery.
A journey brings us face to face with ourselves.
A journey shows us not only the world, but how we fit in it.
Does the person create the journey or does the journey create the person?
The journey is life itself.  Where will life take you?
“Life is a Journey” – Louis Vuitton
Also, big thanks to all the talents who endured cold wind in San Francisco last Saturday and handled our excessive amount of shooting during our afternoon portfolio building time. Thank you for being such a
wonderful team player to help making our images great!

Amber (black dress)

Irene & Anthony were both Za’s college friends from UC Davis. We had so much fun photographing their wedding date on November 1st, 2009 at the Interfaith Center at the Presidio of San Francisco (Main Post Chapel). This is such a beautiful location where the ceremony took place;  the Main Post Chapel sits high on a hill in the San Francisco Presidio overlooking the Bay.  Also the surrounding area have so many cool places where we photographed their stylish group shots of their good looking wedding party.  Then the wedding reception took place at the Zen Peninusla in Millbrae, CA. Food was so yummy at Zen and we LOVE our vendor meals so much!!!

Anyway, thank you Irene & Anthony for having us to photograph your wedding day. Truly an honor to photograph my fellow UCD friends’ wedding.  You guys are probably the most stylish wedding parties I’ve photographed so far. Love her Irene’s mermaid style wedding gown and Anthony’s stylish white tux.  They are such a good looking couple with trendy styles.  Here are the some wedding highlight images I want to share with you:

Wedding Date: 11/1/2009

Location: Interfaith Center at the Presidio of San Francisco (Main Post Chapel)

Reception: Zen Peninusla in Millbrae, CA

Florist & Decoration: Wii Wedding Decorations (Huge PROPS for their creativity)

Makeup & Hair Stylist: Kennar Tang

Here is the video slideshow of their wedding day highlight on youtube. Don’t you love the canto pop songs? Hahaha i do!
