Kara and Thuan

Get ready...cause here are some of the bluest eyes you'll ever see! Kara and Thuan were my first wedding of the year...and what a way to start 2008! We were downtown at the Omni the whole time. Apparently everyone else in the Midwest was downtown too! Let's just say Kara was showered with lots of honks and whistles. It was such a wonderful experience to be a part of two cultures coming together! There were so many unique touches that Kara and Thuan thought about. I picked a few of my favorites from the day. I just learned how to make my images bigger...so enjoy those blue eyes up close!



Cara had the happiest colors as part of her day. Yellow and Blue! Her shoes matched perfectly.

Thuan and all the guys wore converse...even the dads! Love that!

Okay, these two have a tradition to take a picture of themselves at special occasions. I asked if I could take it for them...but the rule is that they take it by themselves.

The Omni was so beautiful! Each table was named after a special event their lives.

Instead of lighting unity candle, Kara and Thuan did a "sand ceremony". Their moms each brought down a vase full of sand (one blue and one yellow :o) Then the bride and groom poured the sand into one vase.

These last two are "accident" pictures. As I edited through all the pics these seemed like a definite NO, but then as I looked at them some more I LOVED them.

  2. Thanks Maya! I was so nervous about shooting at night. I found a flood light at Pan Am Plaza and used that as my fill light. My pocket wizard helped me with the rest. They were such a great couple to document!
