What an event! Tara and Phil were married last Friday at The Ebell Club in Long Beach, CA. It was not your regular old wedding…it was a Masquerade Ball! Over a year’s worth of planning went into it all and it was fantastic. So many great details everywhere, highlighted by custom hand-made Venetian masks. The Ebell Club is such a cool venue in the middle of Long Beach. One of those places that you wouldn’t really notice unless you knew of it. Then when you walk inside, you’re blown away. Really a cool and unique place. Thanks to Clara Ross of Clara’s Perfect Occassions for running the show…she was a blast to work with. Some favs…check out their awesome details!

I just wanted to say that all the shots are amazing. the sword fight wasn’t my best side, but it was a great action shot. I tip my hat to your team.

Everyone at work said the pictures are amazing adn I couldn’t help but but comment on the photographer rather than the subjects: we did put a lot of work into the subject matter, but it wouldn’t look as good if we didn’t have you there to shoot it. Hope you had fun at Jess and Mike’s wedding, I can’t wait to see those either. See you soon.
