It’s been a long, long day! But it was great fun! I am so fortunate to be able to photograph weddings, especially when the Bride and Groom are so wonderful and fun! This wedding was shot in association with Wedding 64 and Art Suwansang.
Elsie and Ben are just such a couple! The ceremony was held at at the Cathedral of Our Lady of the Angels in Los Angeles – a huge church! And the reception followed at the Malibu West Beach Club in Malibu. This little venue is right on the beach in Malibu – a beautiful setting and an intimate banquet room – just right for the number of guests attending.
Both the Bride and the Groom had quite a few family members from out of town to share their special day and a full entourage of Bridesmaids and Groomsmen to keep them on track.
