And as many years I’ve photographed weddings, I had never seen a facial (fishing) net to cover the makeup while changing. GENIUS!!!
They met working on a music video in 2009, and you can see that they adore each other; they laugh a lot and they don’t take things too seriously. And what can I say? Their wedding simply represented that, and here are a few photos from their wedding. <3
Sehwa and I have known each other… probably… almost 12 years now. It was almost right after she came here from Korea to start her life and pursue her career, and I was just one of her clients, but we had so many similar things in common that our friendship kept growing. We shared our deepest secrets and beyond, and she has become one of my closest friends in LA. Sehwa and I basically enjoyed each other’s personal and business growth and have been the biggest cheerleaders. When she told me about her groom Spencer, first of all, there was nothing wrong with this guy! You know how it is - as a girlfriend, you sometimes want to look out for your friend, so you try to read any red flags, but there was none! He was just so perfect. Little did I know, after such a smooth relationship ride with Spencer, they’re getting married and I couldn’t be more thrilled to photograph their intimate, backyard wedding in Topanga Canyon, Los Angeles, California.
Sehwa’s immediate family flew from Korea for the wedding, and Spencer’s mom - who suffers from Parkinson’s Disease - almost couldn’t make it to her only son’s wedding; there were so much of happy tears.
Sehwa was also 9-week pregnant, and I cried out of joy when she told me privately on her wedding day. Then, they surprised everyone with a little Thank-You cards of the baby’s ultrasound picture.
It was just about 30 people including me and Brett at the wedding, and it was everything Sehwa and Spencer wanted.
Colleen and Sterling got married at The Fig House in Los Angeles. They were introduced by mutual friends when they were not single at the time. They stayed friends but always had super secret crushes on each other. That was about 10 years ago.
They laugh a lot and “tease each other in a loving way.” And they have a dog named Teddy, who competes their pack - he had to be at the wedding, of course!!!
And, yes… Colleen’s GREEN DRESS!!!! I JUST LOVE when my clients shine their uniqueness! Super simple and fabulous. Green is the color for Colleen, and Sterling just adores her, and never “pisses her off.” I’ve learned that on their wedding day. Ahhh.. what a day!
