Joan & Ed are so kind and just lovely together. We really enjoyed getting to spend their wedding day with them and getting to meet their friends and family. We had met some of Ed’s family before at his cousin Tetie’s wedding that we photographed in 2009. We are always so touched to get a referral from our Union members (thanks, Tetie & Miguel!). We discovered that we had another connection with Ed – he studied photography at Langarra just like Roger did! We tried to keep our photography geek talk to a minimum during the portrait session so that we didn’t bore Joan too much!

Joan & Ed had their ceremony at the Celebration Pavilion in QE Park.  Their morning wedding ceremony was intimate with just close family and friends. In the afternoon we worked like little bees in order to create a slideshow of the morning’s images for Joan & Ed to show at their reception. At their banquet at Kirin City Square Restaurant they had many more guests than were at the ceremony so it was nice for them to see some pictures from the morning. To do something fun for their guests, Joan & Ed had trivia questions about themselves that their MC read out. The first guest to text the correct answer to the MC won a prize. Isn’t that  great idea? All in all, we had an excellent day with Joan & Ed. The time zoomed right by.

Congratulations, Joan & Ed! Thank you so much for having us along on such a phenomenal day.

I love the photo on the right that I captured of Ed taking a big breath before the ceremony started.

These make me giggle. Aren’t they so cute?

Their first kiss was one of the fastest that we’ve ever seen!

It was so lovely to see Tetie & Miguel again!

Joan & Ed had trivia questions about themselves that the MC read out and their guests texted the answer to win prizes. Such a great idea!

Thank you, Elaine & Warren, for having us be a part of such a special day. Congratulations!

Warren and his Dad were so cute fixing each others ties.

This picture makes me giggle. Elaine is so cute and expressive!

With a little help from the internet!

I loved Elaine’s gorgeous hairpiece.

Seeing each other for the first time all dolled up in their wedding outfits!

They are so so cute together!

See what I mean by how they were having fun during their portrait session?

Right before the ceremony started the men from  both families worked on shortening Elaine’s brother’s tie.

Isn’t Elaine stunning, beaming away?

There was so much joy and giggles during the ceremony.

Officially married!

Having fun with their guests.

I love the mischievous look on Warren’s face in this pic.

It was a pleasure for us to work again with Erik and his crew from Love Story Media. Erik did a same day edit of Tetie and Miguel’s wedding which they showed at the reception. Erik gave us a sneak peak before we left for the night and we were blown away. Here is the link to the video on Erik’s blog.

Thanks, Tetie and Miguel, for such a fantastic day. Congratulations!

I love how Roger captured such a beautiful moment between Tetie and her bridesmaids.

The orange ribbons on the flower girls’ shoes were so sweet.

Don’t you just love the orange bridesmaid dresses?

Instead of clinking their glasses, Tetie & Miguel asked their guests to sing in order for them to kiss. Tetie’s adorable nieces kept on singing “This is the song that doesn’t end”, which was hilarious.
