Cathedral of Our Lady of the Angels in Los Angeles | Bryn and Joman

March 17, 2009

Greetings!

It was finally the big day for the lovely Bryn and the smooth-on-the-dance-floor Joman. The last time we saw this energetic couple, we were having a ton of fun at the Universal City Walk in Hollywood taking pictures for their engagement. I was very excited when Doug from Furious Photographers invited
Kevin and me to second shoot for him at the Cathedral of Our Lady of the Angels in Los Angeles. Last summer, I used to intern for the LA County Department of Consumer Affairs at the Kenneth Hanh Hall of Administration, which was right across the street from the Cathedral. I walked by there all the time, but it wasn’t until this wedding that I finally got to set foot inside the beautiful venue.

It was time to start shooting and the three of us were determined to not miss a moment. Doug went to the groom’s house in San Gabriel while Kevin and I headed to Burbank to the bride’s place to get the preparation shots.

And we were finally off to the Cathedral! With much style and class, we were chauffeured to Downtown Los Angeles by a classic Bentley.

The ceremony was magical. The venue surpassed my expectations and the architecture was simply amazing.

The look on Bryn’s face reminds me exactly how she was feeling at that moment.

The Cathedral was a fantastic venue with an on-site reception hall that was able to accommodate all the family and friends Bryn and Joman invited to be a part of their big day.

What a delicious looking cake!

It was like out of a movie! The guests got on the dance floor and busted out in choreographed dance!

I had so much fun shooting with Doug and Kevin that the time just flew by. Bryn and Joman were uber photogenic, as usual, and it was a beautiful day to remember. It’s always a pleasure to shoot with Doug, and it was really cool working with Kevin Vu. I know Bryn and Joman are gonna have a wonderful life together! They make such a great couple!

Anyways, I’ll have more posts to come, so ciao for now!

Later,
