The big day, behind the scenes...

Hollywood, California

Since Judy's photographer wasn't showing up until 3:00ish I got to play photographer for most of the morning.  I was pretty impressed, Judy was very calm and relaxed for the most part. I tried not to get in her way just in case... :)

She bought her girls the cutest (and softest!) robes for their bridesmaid's gifts

 I went over the guy's room, and it was quite a different scene over there...

 They were watching basketball!!

 I got bored and went back to the girls room.  I told them I'd be back in half an hour...

 yup! still drinkin and hanging out!

 Finally about 5 till 3 they started getting ready

My whirlwind weekend in Los Angeles, day 1

Saturday, March 10, 2012
Los Angeles, CA

Judy, one of my girlfriends from high school was getting married and I was honored that she invited me to attend.  Since I was short on vacation hours (I'm going on a big one next month) I was only able to stay the weekend.  I took the red eye Friday night and got in bright and early Saturday morning.  My other classmate, Teresa graciously left the bachelorette party early so she could pick me up at the airport.

While the bridal party was sobering up and getting some zzzz's, Teresa and I took a power nap, grabbed some breakfast and took a walk around the neighborhood. There are some cute houses in Venice...

 I saw this and thought it was hilarious.  It was just sitting in the front lawn...

 Later on that afternoon we headed over to Hollywood to The Supper Club, where the rehearsal and rehearsal dinner was held

 

Our hotel room was a few blocks away from The Supper Club so we went to change before dinner.  This was the view from our room.  This was actually the first time I've seen the Hollywood sign!

 Me and the bride to be...we've been friends since the 7th grade

 Teresa and Judy have been friends since uhhh...age 6? something like that

Kakaako, HI

Kailee is about to turn 1 in a couple of months so my co-worker An asked if I could take some pictures of her to get ready for her birthday.  I took her newborn pictures last June, she didn't like me too much, and not much has changed...

Because of the horrible weather we've been having we were limited in the places where we could do the shoot.  I decided on the Kakaako fire station. They have an awesome red brick wall with a big green door.  I never shot there before but always wanted to try.
