Timon and Liz Wang — Wed, 17 Aug 2011 22:20:02 +0000

Lauren and Drew’s wedding in Lancaster!

Lead photographer~my sweet Timon Wang, and special thanks to Lucia Loiso for assisting and shooting!

Lauren’s gorgeous peony bouquet… (my favorite flower too!)

Pink peonies from the bridesmaids’ bouquets… I was in peony heaven.

Lauren’s shoes! I would’ve worn those heart rhinestones to my wedding if I’d seen those 8 years ago.

Lauren’s outfit was so entirely complete and perfect

Lauren getting ready…

One thing that we loved about their wedding was that they brought in a Steinway Grand piano. One thing I love about Timon is that he thought to pose the rings inside the piano (with the help of the piano tuner, on exactly where to safely place the rings!)

Didn’t hurt to grab a few more photographs of Lauren in the calm of the morning…

Coming up on some of our favorites… My…is stunning even adequate enough of a word?!

Lauren walked down the corridor and met Drew for a first look

Out peaked the cutest little flower girl… she was so happy.

close-up through the window…she was so excited, she stayed looking out the window

Although she started the morning out giddy, she also had some tears to shed as would be normal for a little flower girl. But we had an understanding going: I was her source of candy and stickers. Later with that understanding, she gave me this:

I will always love wedding details…

Lauren, are you sure weren’t already on the cover of a bridal magazine?!

I think this is so sweet

(Lauren and her mom)

couldn’t be any more beautiful…

Lauren is the sweetest person. And so is her mom. Her mom handmade these cookies for their wedding reception favors:

Introducing Mr. and Mrs. Drew Mercy

This is cute:

I adore the feeling and light in Lauren and Drew’s first dance picture…

I love this too:

A big part of the reception was the guests!

Below, bottom-left: Soon-to-be mother and father of the bride, Senator Sharon Runner and George Runner, whose beautiful daughter’s wedding we had the privilege of shooting just a few weeks later. A neat tidbit about them is that they’re the first husband and wife in California history who served in state legislature at the same time!:)

The night was about over, when all of a sudden this gentleman decided it was time:

Enough partying…one last snapshot of the happily married bride and groom!

San Gabriel Hilton Wedding| Mona and Phil | San Gabriel Wedding Photographer

Timon and Liz Wang — Mon, 01 Aug 2011 02:02:15 +0000

San Gabriel Hilton has an elegant rooftop that just seems to transcend the city, almost like a secret garden hidden in an urban city, complete with a gazebo, perfectly placed flowers everywhere, and a cute water feature. It was a great fit for Mona and Phil and their April 2011 wedding. The bright sunlight and intense heat of the LA sun overhead beating down on us was overshadowed by the elegance and sophistication of their day, bound together by an ever-present passion that these two share. The day started at The Langham Hotel in Pasadena, as we captured the few quiet moments before Mona and Phil were brought together. White Blossom Events was a dream to work with. Their demeanor was calming, caring, and professional, and so helpful and we can not begin to summarize how much we loved them.

To start off, here are a few shots from the Hilton.

I just wanted to point out the Michael Jordan here. I just love the enthusiasm. :)
The men were no let down when it came their turn. This is our favorite garter catch reaction to date!Lastly, there are so many party pictures, but unfortunately there’s only enough space to embarrass a few people here.

Richard Nixon Library Wedding| Min and David | Yorba Linda Wedding Photographer

Timon and Liz Wang — Tue, 14 Jun 2011 09:02:33 +0000

When we met Min, not only was she the sweetest, laid back, yet excited bride, but she also mentioned to us that she was designing her own wedding dress, something I’d never attempt in my wildest, imaginative dreams. In fact, when frequenting my chic sewing project books, (I like to daydream about what I might be able to make someday), I skip right over the clothing pages because I know that I could not create or much less design, something I had to wear. Thus, it was a give-away from the start that Min was not just cool but notches above cool.

David was also really sweet, when we met him for the first time, first thing in the morning…he was busy taking care of all the morning details, helping set up at the reception, and letting us know a million times over that he would take care of whatever we needed. He made us feel welcomed and right at home in their wedding.

I know Timon loved shooting this wedding as much as I’m loving blogging it!

Min and David held their wedding at the Richard Nixon Library in Yorba Linda.
Photographer: Timon Wang
Post-Production: Liz Wang

Oops I got ahead of myself. ;) This is how this fairy tale begins…with a gorgeous one-of-a kind wedding dress (literally) and a stunning bride…

Her friend Yecca Zeng, from the Fashion Institute in Technology at NYC, helped her mold together some of her favorite things she had seen in other wedding dresses. Min gave her some pictures and ideas to go off of, and Yecca produced 25 drawings and narrowed them down to 5. Here’s what Min said:

“We sat together looking at the 5 drawings and then picked out what we liked from each of those and created the gown! Yecca made everything from scratch, and spent hours hand tacking the pleated details and all the draping. It really is a piece of artwork from her, and I plan on trying to preserve it and perhaps some day when she has her own showroom I can give it back as a memory!”

Can’t have a fairytale without a handsome prince…

The anticipation of the first look was oozing from both Min and David. They were glowing with anticipation… so we arranged a rendezvous in an awesome field we found on the way over. Then, we stepped back and let the magic happen…

Then off to the ceremony! Timon found an artistic spot, shooting through the glass window:

Some more Min and David awesomeness:

Completely noteworthy was the food, provided by the Richard Nixon Library. It was SO, so good. The meal was seriously as good tasting as it looks, and just look at it!

The tower of crunchy fine candy strings was over the top. How can I describe it? It was like cotton candy on steroids. We came home with a ziplock bag of it! I was honestly eating this while packing our equipment to go, on the way home, the next day, and the day after.

A beautiful finish to a magical day:
