Lisa & Yoshihiro {the wedding}

This wonderful backyard beauty was so fun to shoot. It was small, quaint, and simply lovely. With both the bride and groom traveling all the way from Japan to get married, the day was nothing short of special for this destination wedding. The perfectly sweet ceremony was at the Wayfarers Chapel in Rancho Palos Verdes, then it was off to Irvine to take photos and enjoy a casual backyard affair with lovely details put together the bride and this lovely girl. Since they weren’t on a strict timeline, (even time to feed some ducks) portrait time was relaxed, fulfilling and so fun! With only a few poses lost in translation :)
It was such a nice time and their family was so welcoming, we felt more like we were guests then working. (probably because we didn’t realize until the second lemonade that it was spiked! :) )

Now to the casually sweet and lovely reception.
