After 2 days, I am back to Santa Barbara for another wedding, again, near Cabrillo Beach.
Today’s wedding will complete my long weekend with 3 weddings.
Today is independence day.  The house was right by the beach in Santa Barbara.
There were thousands of people coming to the beach to view fireworks and show patriotism.
The parking was impossible. But, I was lucky to find the best parking space right in front of the wedding site. This was a sign I was going to have a good day.

It was a small wedding in the backyard of a beach-front house.
The background was a full view of Santa Barbara beach.
Sun was very strong.  I had to use flash on every single photograph.
They had a short wedding. Everything was over in less than 4 hours.
Then there was a firework on the beach.

I had a memorable weekend.
I did 3 weddings, had a dinner with my parents, bought a computer, and went to Hollywood Bowl.

I forgot, today was Sunday. I can’t believe I have to go back to work tomorrow morning

I had a photography assignment at YMCA.  I spent 4 hours to take pictures of various activities lead by friendly staff members.  It was the first time for me to personally experience what YMCA was all about.  YMCA was more than just a fitness facility.  They act as a baby-sitter, a school, and a playground as well.  I have also  attended their staff meeting to take photographs.  They were talking about their philosophy and the goal for the future.

Earlier, at children’s activity, I met my wedding client (groom) from the wedding 2 years ago.  He was leading activities for kids.  He told me that they still carry their wedding album to show people.  He said “You did a good job”.  “Thank you, thank you” I replied.  He told me they have a 4 months old baby girl now.

It was nice meeting him.  Because I remember everything from his wedding, (strong wind at the beach, bride’s Adidas sneakers, balloon strings on the face when slow-dancing, groom’s first prayer as a head of household, electric slide, cake with sea-shell decoration, etc, etc…)   I told him some of the details of his wedding that I remember.  We laughed. 

I meet past wedding photography clients constantly when I’m out .  That’s why I always try to be nice to people.  Not that I’m a bad boy.

Update: YMCA Program Guide is out, they used 31 of my pictures

Below is pictures of Camarillo YMCA I took exactly 1 year earlier.
