Sunday evening I had the pleasure of photographing Judy and Yoni’s wedding at the Long Beach Museum of Art. These two medical students planned their event from the east coast between classes and lab. We began the day by photographing Judy and Yoni getting ready with the whole family near the beach in Belmont Shores. I don’t think I have ever seen a more relaxed bride and groom. They were both full of laughter and completely at ease. The wedding was rich with cultural and family history, from the homemade Chuppa to the adapted tea ceremony. An intimate gathering of family and close friends witnessed beautiful vows written by Judy and Yoni. I am known around the studio for my love of wedding cake and my tendency to get a bit weepy and I thought their words to each other were especially touching. After the ceremony we roamed the grounds finding amazing photo opportunities while the guests enjoyed cocktail hour. Once dinner was complete and the toasts had been given the guests really got down to a mix of tunes from David Bowie to Count Basie. Check out some of Red Loft Studios favorite pics!!!!!!!!!!!
