VIDEO #2 BEHIND THE SCENSES

Hello guys,  this weekend I was honored to photograph Lena and Boris’s wedding.

Wedding took place in the heart of San Fransisco.   Two days later,  I realized that this became my favorite wedding.

MORNING:
Wedding was pretty upscale and lavish style.   Bride Lena was gorgeous.  Boris was smiling and so calm the whole day:)
It began in SF New York suite on 17th floor.   When I walked in to this room I said “woooww”..    We had 9 brides maids
and 9 grooms men  so Lena asked me  to hire another photographer.   I was so glad that my friend who is one of the finest
wedding photographers in Sacramento, agreed to help me out.    I don’t have my friends images yet, so I’m only will upload
the one’s that I took.
Morning videographer was my good friend: Val Feitser @ www.cineczar.com

AFTERNOON:
Main shoot took place in the streets of San Francisco.    As you guys know, I LOVE Chaos.   For me to handle
huge bridal party (20 people) with all chaos going on is biggest present:).   But we both enjoyed it a LOT!

EVENING:
Both ceremony and reception were amazing and very entertaining!

Here is first image..  more to follow.

Hi everybody, here is Camellia+Dean wedding that took place in San Jose.  We absolutely loved it.

SPECIAL: This is the ONLY wedding where my wife Oksana came along for the last 1 1/2 years, and we both absolutely loved it.

Camellia and Dean hired us for  E-session that was 3+ hrs away from Sacramento (each way) and I took Oksana
along with me so she can drive.  After the e-session, Dean and Camellia (because they are so nice)  invited us for a dinner. During the
dinner  we had wonderful talk and both Camellia and Dean bonded with Oksana and invited her to the wedding.

Well, Oksana really wanted to come along and we both absolutely loved it.

THE PLACE: Wedding took place in San Jose at Dean & Camellia’s backyard overlooking the entire city.   View was breathtaking.
Inside the house there were big windows from top to bottom  9 feet high overlooking entire city landscape.
At night the whole city lights up and view is unbelievable!

ATMOSPHERE: Wedding  atmosphere was very relaxed and classy.   Everyone had a good time.  Live  music band was playing
“The Beatles” style, and they had 18 guitars.  I talked to those guys and they said that they will use each one of them.

Here are a few photos from today, enjoy!

At the end of ceremony everyone had a little box with a butterfly inside. On a count of “THREE” everyone opened the box and the butterflies flew away.
Very nice touch.  Here is one of the butterflies.

Oksana and I.
