Debbie & Jason – Palos Verdes

September 17, 2008 | Filed Under Wedding  by michael | 

Here’s another huge post, because it was really difficult to narrow down the images from this wedding. We spent a long day with Debbie and Jason, and multiple locations made for some beautiful images. I simply love the images we took of Debbie in her room prior to the ceremony, there is a calmness, and an anticipation at the same time. Jason was all smiles and laughter as we spent time with him and his groomsmen. Debbie and Jason saw each other for the first time in front of Wayfarers Chapel just before they were married. It’s actually a very beautiful chapel on the cliffs overlooking the coast, and it’s totally enveloped in trees, except for a few spots where the light comes through in the evening and shines directly on the bride and groom as they stand at the alter. It can be difficult to photograph, but it also makes for amazing images. Right after the ceremony, we had some phenomenal light to work with, and made a few stops for photos along the way to the reception. The vertical image of the couple walking on the bridge is one of my favorites from the day. Enjoy!

    I bet it was hard! This was very lovely. Some of the details are out of this world. I loved the shot where the bottom of her dress lace is captured..stuff you love about your dress but don’t usually capture on film..the details of the lace and how you brought her dress, alone, to life was breathtaking, never mind everything else. thanks.

    Beautiful images!! Too much to describe what I love about all of them, but I can say they’re ALL fantastic! The shoe pic is phenomenal btw and #18 (groom group pic with teal color wall behind them is crazy awesome!!).

    What a gorgeous venue– I love the glass windows in that chapel (?). P.S. I should introduce myself, even though I feel like I know you all through this fabulous website you have! I spent a year on Doulos with your dear brother (and brother-in-law), Jonathan. He had told me about your website about a year ago, and I have shamelessly cyber-stalked you all since then! Your photos reflect so much creativity and artistry. I love looking at them. Keep up the great work! -Emily
