Mr. & Mrs. Carter

Jerry and Tumy had a long wedding day filled with lots of events. I've been excited about their wedding for a while because not only did they have a Catholic ceremony, but they also had a Vietnamese ceremony. While it was a long day, it was great because it gave me lots of time to experiment with some fun stuff like off camera lighting!

The day started at St. Edwards Church in Dana Point. The bride's changing room was very boring and stark so I set up my off camera flash to see what I could do to make it look better. I think these are my favorite dress and shoe shots ever!




Tumy had an absolutely amazing dress! I like these shots in the hall too.

I had an awesome second shooter for the day. Sandra Salisbury grabbed this awesome shot from the balcony.

We grabbed a few quick shots at the church.




And then off to the Vietnamese ceremony. It was actually a very emotional ceremony. It was very cool to be a part of.



Jerry and Tumy's reception was at The Island Hotel. The Island is GORGEOUS! When we walked into the ballroom our jaws dropped! And there are lots of great places for pictures at the hotel as well.




It was an awesome reception. They even had a Chinese acrobatic show. The big lions really scared me, but the rest of the act was very cool!





Jerry and Tumy, thanks so much for allowing me to be a part of your wedding day! We had so much fun! I hope you are enjoying Cabo! Here's your slideshow!
