Last Saturday, Jenny and Kevin tied the knot at St. Catherine’s of Siena Church in Laguna Beach, followed by a rockin’ reception at Shady Canyon Golf Club in Irvine. I was really looking forward to their wedding, since it’s the big kick-off for our 2007 season! Not to mention they’re both pretty easy on the eyes….
The beautiful bride -
A little limo action -
The rings -
I think there is something really classic about this shot of Jenny walking up the aisle with her dad -
A little detail from the ceremony -
I just love this shot that Doug got of Jenny and Kevin walking back down the aisle! -
A couple of portraits -
A couple of details from their reception -
And their first dance (p.s. I love when the bride and groom choose to have the bridal party stand on the dance floor during their first dance – it’s so much more interesting then the band!)-
The cake cutting -
While I shot the guests dancing, Doug set up a mini-photo booth and took character portraits of guests on their way to the bar. I think he did an awesome job capturing some fun moments for Jenny and Kevin to enjoy later!
Congrats and enjoy your honeymoon! -Chenin

Okay. So all the pictures are as fabulous as usual, but that photobooth idea is just killer…SO amazing!! I loooove it!!
sam’s folks were at this wedding. i was half-hoping to see a candid shot w/ them in the background! i love love love the photobooth pics.
Photobooth pics are awesome! Great job at eliciting such fabulous portraits. These should be a photo spread in Vogue or Vanity Fair.
i love that dude with the cake in the photobooth!
Mini photo booth = best.idea.ever!
Great shots, guys.
What a fun way to capture the guests at a wedding. I’m so jealous that I don’t have something like this in my wedding album. Keep up the great work!
Man those booth pics kick some serious butt!

Totally agree with Mark’s comment about Vanity Fair.
it’s been said before, but bears repeating…while the wedding shots are incredible, the photobooth absolutely rocks! any clues as to the set up?
AWESOME shots. Love the wedding shots..but the photo booth ones are brilliant! LOVE that! Thanks for sharing.
Love, love, love, the photo booth action!! So innovative. Yeah, care to share your set-up? You guys are continually raising the bar.
You guys amaze me every time.
Gosh, you guys are too cool. These are all so fab. The BG under the tree, love it. The reception photos… Mark totally nailed where these need to be. Great!
i’m totally in love with the photobooth pictures! how did you guys set it up and elicit such fun responses from people?
hey guys,
LOVE the SX-70 shot…beautiful! And Doug, what a killer idea for the mini photobooth-just rockin’ a flash and a tripod?? And the photobooth images? I can help but think those are going to make them laugh so much!
a home made photo booth? I LOVE IT!!!
…LOVE the photobooth shots, SO FUN!!!
I love the father and bride shot. Very classic indeed. I so want to try the photo booth idea. Maybe I’ll try it on my dogs first. Have them chase a ball back and forth in front of the camera. I don’t know if you remember meeting me in Vegas, but i’m ejoyed meeting you. I think honestly I only met Chenin. So maybe another time Doug. I enjoyed your talk about the “rules” policy. You both did a wonderful job. I love how well you two work together.
these are amazing… just beautiful…
someday…i hope i can take photographs like this.
great job!
the photobooth is fantastic, by the way…
(did you use some of your actions on these photos)
You both have amazing talent!!
I came across your blog just recently and now have it bookmarked.
Love this wedding, especially the photobooth shots.
You make my work look like crap.
Thanks for sharing!
i love the ring shots you do, they’re always so creative, and very beautiful.
