From Italy, With Love

I just came across this absolutely gorgeous wedding video and had to share. Shot and edited by the amazingly talented team at Elysium Productions, this breathtaking wedding video exemplifies the value of having a videographer. Could the magic of Tuscany be captured as beautifully any other way? Congratulations to this beautiful couple! Enjoy the video!!

Back to Where It All Began

Our lovely bride Jennifer just sent us a sneak peak at her engagement shots with her fiance Joe, taken by the amazing Heidi Ryder (blog). Jennifer and Joe are such a wonderful couple and we absolutely love that they came back to the location where their relationship began for their photo shoot.

From Heidi Ryder's blog: "They met on the Metro headed towards Downtown LA. She caught it every morning from Riverside; he’d catch it in Diamond Bar. They’d transfer at the same place and take the train to the middle of Downtown before heading to their respective offices. Eventually, they began chatting during the commute. After time there was a date, and then the rest, as they say, is history."

We think these photos are gorgeous and reflect Jennifer and Joe's relaxed and fun-loving personalities perfectly! Below are a few of our favorites.

A Colorful Kick

I absolutely love the new trend of brides wearing colorful shoes! I mean, first of all what girl doesn't feel a million times more stylish while wearing a pair of fabulous cobalt blue Manolos? I think we're all willing to sacrifice a little comfort in the name of fabulousness - especially on a day as important as your wedding day. Am I right?

So here is a little tribute board I put together to pay homage to these amazing ladies - some of whom were our own brides - and the amazing photo ops. that come from thinking inside the (shoe) box.
