For those of you who know us, you know that we LOVE New Orleans! Both Jeff and I have traveled to NOLA on several occasions as we just love that city. We were just there in October eating some jambalaya and drinking hurricanes, as well as exploring the French Quarter. This trip we also took a ride out to the beautiful Oak Alley Plantation and saw many other fabulous plantations along the way. These are such great locations for Weddings in and around the New Orleans area. One of the hot spots for weddings this past October was in Jackson Square and in the St. Louis Cathedral in the French Quarter. What a great back drop to say your I-do’s and do your wedding photography. Then there is nothing better than after the ceremony when the Treme Brass Band rolls up to start a second line for the couple as they dance and celebrate through the famous streets of the French Quarter including Bourbon Street! We actually joined a few second lines this time as we LOVE that New Orleans Jazz and of course LOVE anything weddings!
With our love for New Orleans and Weddings, one of our goal’s for 2012 is to get there for more weddings this year! With this goal in mind we were so excited to have been quoted in a recent magazine article about New Orleans Weddings. Where Y’At Magazine is a local New Orleans publication that recently featured an article about wedding trends in their January 2012 issue. The local writer, Tyler Lott who is a New Orleans native reached out to us as she wanted our perspective from what we see with wedding trends in Southern California and how they coincide with the trends in New Orleans. You can see the entire article online at Where Y’At magazine. In the meantime, look here…it’s The Sipper’s and we are so excited to be a part of New Orleans Weddings too.

Today we have a very special couple to share with you. Recently, my friend Carolyn, who is a minister for So Cal Officiant referred us to Stevie and Jaime as they needed a photographer for their private wedding ceremony at the Los Angeles County Arboretum. It was a Wednesday morning that I got the call from Carolyn letting me know she gave the couple our information for their ceremony on Sunday. Short notice I thought, but when I spoke to Stevie on that Friday morning he mentioned he was a touring musician and had a break in his schedule, so they wanted to have their wedding ceremony. Turns out that Stevie is the lead guitarist for the band Buckcherry and he wanted us to shoot his wedding.
We love the small, intimate wedding ceremonies and this truly was an amazing one to be a part of. Jeff and I signed the couple’s marriage license as we not only photographed their vows, but were their official witnesses to them.
Carolyn performed a fabulous ceremony for the couple, I love, love, love her. She has such a passion for performing weddings! It truly was a pleasure to work with her. If you are a bride or groom in the Orange County or Los Angeles area and are looking for an officiant-minister for your wedding ceremony, please contact Carolyn.
After the wedding ceremony we had the opportunity to capture some awesome moments between Stevie and Jamie. I can truly say that they rocked it! Afterwards we had lunch with the couple and since then even had the opportunity to see Stevie perform with Buckcherry as they played recently at the Verizon Amphitheater in Irvine.
Thanks so much Stevie and Jamie for sharing this special day with us.
All the best to you both!

Pre-Ceremony Shot of the couple…LOVE the moment!
Jaime is a gorgeous bride!
Our groom, Stevie D
Stevie is also a photographer. He shoots a lot when he is on tour of the band, people and places he goes.
We thought this was a fun shot of him photographing his bride-to-be.

Well, this post is a little behind as we also traveled back East to Pennsylvania in June to shoot a wedding. The last two weeks we have been playing some catch up, but are so excited to share with you photos from Martoinne and Rhea’s wedding that took place on June 5, 2011 at the Sportmen’s Lodge in Studio City, CA. We had a wonderful couple and a fabulous venue, so the photo opportunities were great. The Sportsmen’s Lodge has a beautiful garden ceremony location and this is where the two said their I-do’s. When we met Marty and Rhea at our initial consult we instantly clicked with them and it made for a great capture on their day. Rhea really liked the fact that we were a married photography couple and I think that shines through here.
The two met at church where two of Martoinne’s cousins introduced them. After being a couple for 2 years, he proposed to Rhea at the Manhattan Beach Pier and she said Yes!!!! These two are a young couple that knew they wanted to be together forever! We could totally see this love as I teared up on a few occasions during their ceremony. It all started with Marty singing to Rhea as she walked down the aisle, such a priceless moment. He also sang part of his vows to her. How Romantic?????

A traditional Jumping of the Broom was done by this couple!
Congratulations Martoinne and Rhea! Best Wishes for a long and happy marriage, it was a pleasure working with you both! Now let’s dance!
Cheers+Love, J+D

Brandon and Crystal were married a year ago this past April. They celebrated their one year anniversary with an official wedding reception with all of their friends and family together and we got to be a part of it. We had met Crystal shortly before she got married last year and from the first time I met her, we clicked. She was so excited about our photography from the first time she looked at our photos in one of our books at an event. I loved her energy immediately and wanted to work with her! It was a wonderful day when we finally got to work together and meet her fabulous husband Brandon. Her Aunt was so gracious to host their wedding reception at her Los Angeles home. It turned out beautiful! Here they are…cheers to you both! J+D
