Liana & Mike: Part 3 of 4

Hello faithful readers! My body is slowly but surely adjusting back to California time, and I've got a TON of blog entries in the queue for the next few weeks. I'm also plugging right away on my own wedding plans, so I should have some new posts about that this coming week as well.

Instead of posting my images from Sweden today, I want to share a little bit more of Liana & Mike's wedding, which I started posting a few weeks ago. The wedding was at Greystone Mansion in Beverly Hills, which is just an amazing, incredible property. Look:

One of the moments that I love during a wedding is that little bit of time immediately before the ceremony where everyone is getting ready. It's the height of the anticipation, and and the moment they've been waiting for for so long. Here's the girls about ready to walk down:

One last look between Liana and her dad before he gave her away to Mike:

Lines lines everywhere:

The ceremony site--perfectly backlit, of course :) That's what you get when you shoot another photographers' wedding!

A couple little ceremony details:

A great shot of Liana's dress:

I love the feeling of this one--Liana's expression and her Maid of Honor's expressions just make it for me:

A prayer and a kiss...

And a newly married couple!! I love this series:

Might be my fave of the day:

They sneaked off into the bushes for a real kiss once they tied the knot :)

Seriously, the property is so flippin' stunning:

Throw a beautiful bridal party in there and you've got a nice little photo:

Cocktail hour was simple and pretty in lovely light:

The setting is like a courtyard straight out of a European storybook:
