Failop + Mike's Wedding- Malibu, CA

After I shot their underwater engagements, I knew to get ready for an amazing wedding day. I think both Failop and Cassandra (the truly gifted wedding planner) deserve an award for one of the most organized events I have ever photographed. There was a lot going on...but it felt simple, streamlined and easy. It was a stunning day.

Failop and Mike are two of the most gracious people I have ever met. They really wanted the theme of their day to be about forming new relationships..to leave the wedding having met someone that would continue to be a part of your life. I just think that is so cool. To want your wedding day to be about the people you love..and in turn hoping that we would each see in each other what you saw in us. I just love that.

Can we also talk about the fact that Failop flew in the dance crew Remote Kontrol as a surprise for Mike? How awesome is that?! Mike loved it, I loved it. It was quality entertainment. They also had Pink Berry brought in as dessert. Yes, please.

I could go on and on..which is obvious by the 100+ images I posted. Get a warm beverage, kick up your feet and take a look at their wedding day. I promise it will make you a better person.
