Grace + John’s Wedding at The Japanese Garden

We joined Grace and John at The Earl Burns Miller Japanese Garden on the campus of Long Beach State University. It was such a beautiful place! Definitely one of those locations that you are surprised to find in the middle of a concrete jungle. Grace and John are such a good looking duo! We got some very cool portraits in and around the gardens! I definitely have a few that are my favs of the year. John also did an awesome serenade of Yellow by Coldplay. He has such a great voice! Congrats to Grace and John! Here’s some goodies from the day:

Grace got ready at the Renaissance Hotel in Long Beach. Really cool spot with great decor.

John and the boys at the Garden waiting.

Some flower girl shenanigans!

Ah, the first glance!

Ceremony spot was such a great scene.

They couldn’t help but break out the smiles.

Got some amazing shots for their portraits. Love this wide.


One of my favs.

Great decor around the garden.

Time to party!

The sweetheart table lit by a flash.

John’s awesome serenade.

Love the slideshow watching shots. Such great stories told by the eyes.

It was dark, but the party was still going!

And finally, here’s a 30 sec. shot of the garden at night.
