1:00PM - Photography before wedding ceremony.
3:00PM - Wedding Ceremony
4:30PM - Reception
7:00PM - End

I arrived at the Church on 1pm and located nice shades under the trees.
But, there was a change of plan. Photography before the ceremony didn’t take place.

Wedding is a fluid event.  It’s perfectly understandable (and expected) that things will change as the day progresses. I always go with the flow. 

Instead of 1:00PM formal photography, we did 4:00PM formal photo-shoot.
So, the shades below the trees were now gone.
Instead, we had a strong Sunlight coming from the side.
I had to move people a step at a time as the Sun moved to the West.
There were patches of think cloud blocking the Sun.
Those helped me a lot.

I used the tripod during the ceremony, because I was told “minimal use of flash”. I popped the flash several times during the appropriate moments.

All an all, I have a good feeling about this wedding.

** Added June 12, 2006 - Pictures came out. They look good. I have posted 2 images up here.

Yes, it was a Monday wedding.
I took the day off from my job for this event.
We had a quarter inch of rain throughout the morning hours.
It was dark and rainy for the entire morning hours.

Wedding was scheduled for 4pm at Cliff House Inn at Mussel Shoals.
Around 1pm, the rain stopped and the Sun started to come out.
By 4pm, we had the best weather for the beach wedding.
This couple is blessed from the very start.

Once again, just like April 22nd wedding at Piru, people should hire me for good luck I have with rain.

Today’s Schedule

Reception (party) starts at Braemar Country Club. - 11:30PM
End - 3:30PM

I arrived at the temple at Woodland Hills at 9AM. Bar Mitzvah starts out as a humble and holy event. Photography is not allowed.  I had to stay outside during the ceremony.  The rabbi was a kind gentleman.  Before the worship, the rabbi staged the ceremony for me so I have good pictures. 

After the ceremony, the kids would have a lot of fun at the exclusive clubhouse in Tarzana. They started the party with 2 Laker girls. They had a lot of activities and a lot of vendors (magic, psychic, tattoo, caricature, DJ…). Today’s Bar Mitzvah was a heaven for youngsters, and a good party for gown ups as well.

I exchanged cards with the DJ and the make-up artist.
After Bar Mitzvah, I drove by to the photo lab.
I picked up last week’s wedding and dropped off today’s film (6 rolls).

I had a busy week (a few weeks straight).
I can use the day off tomorrow…  mm I would rather be busy
