Josh & Andrea

What a great day to get married! This lovely couple got married at Berkeley, and the weather couldn't be better. I put together an album that is currently shown on my main site mlamphotography.com , under "gallery", so feel free to check it out.

But here's a few samples of the album:





















Isn't it such a great day??

And as usual, I am happy to be there for them!

Drag the shutter?

Usually at the end of a wedding shoot, when I have all the "sharp" shots covered, and the party is getting wild, I would like to use this great opportunity to play around with the shutter to create some playful effect. This is usually the time when I can have a little fun without the immense time pressure that are usually associated with the rest of the day.

Pictures are worth a thousand words, so I will let them explain:




Dancing shots are great for these effect. It adds a bit motion and dynamics to it.


Yo, DJ, spin that wheel! ... errr.. i mean Ipod!




I love how the couple is cherishing the moments while the guests are just plain having fun!


"Yay! I am married!"

Meeting Mr. & Mrs. Pursell

I was referred to Dave by a friend of mine. Dave plans to have a very small wedding celebration with immediate family only. He wants to have someone capture the moments during their registration at the SF City hall, it was a last minute thing, and asked me if I would be able to do it.

I say NO PROBLEM! It is always fun to shoot wedding celebrations, and the smaller, intimate setting allow me to know the couple and their families more.







The lovely bride


I love the energy of the couple! That's why I am in this industry!






Yay!


Well... how can it be a celebration without the obligatory jumping shot?
