AMBER + AMEL [MARRIED!]

This summer, I photographed one of my first weddings!  It was such an amazing experience.  Many thanks to Manus Chau for giving me the opportunity to second-shoot and, of course, to James for encouraging me to go for it!

Amber + Amel are such a sweet couple and it was an honor to be a part of their big day.

 

[below] | I got to the church early to take some shots of the guys.  I spy Nate Jeung, who I found out is Amber’s brother!!!  WHAT A SMALL WORLD!

 

[below] | Amber and her dad were so cute.  Here they are right before he was about to walk her down the aisle.

[below] | Amber was cracking up during her maid of honor’s toast. They have some pretty incredible and hilarious stories together.
