Peace&much luv to ya!

So we met up outside the church around 11:30ish and got all gear and dudeeeeeeeeee the church was sickk!!

Gorgeous venue to be married in…the bride & groom arrived in their limo cuz they’re ballinnnnnnnnnnnnnn’. The ceremony started around 1pm so we shot away.

Grooms men chillen.

Ring bearer is sooo adorable! 

Naruto hand seals. BIRD! BOAR! DOG! HARE! RAM! HORSE! RAT! SERPENT! DRAGON! OX! TIGER! MONKEY! Yes, specifically in that exact chakra order.

Hehe so cute.

Time to get CRUNKKKKKKKKKKK.

This picture is so cute. SO cute. Like HAO KE AI OH, like that. It’s like that and like this and like that y’all.

So happy as a newly wed couple

Their sick ass ride!!

After the ceremony, we ran inside real quick with Bridgeth and Wilson to take some shots of them in the gorgeous church.

From the choir balcony.

After we stuck around a bit and took pictures of the guests outside the church, we had to head over from central LA over to Long Beach. Except, we got lost and had to detour 1000x times. Dude, yesterday, I got lost like so many times because our conversation side tracked my mind while I was driving. Bad idea to talk about things that excite me while I’m driving.

So we finally arrive in Long Beach and Emz fell asleep. This was probably the most amusing event of the day. We cracked up so hard. Almost to the point where I felt like I had just done P90x Ab Ripper two times in a row. I couldn’t breathe cuz we were laughing so hard. I think you just had to be there to get it. This is the result of our laugh fest:

Oh dude, so stohpid Emz had that song stuck in her head but she only knew one line so all day I kept hearing baby are you down down down down EVEN IF THE SKY IS FALLING DOWNNN NA NA NA NA NA. On repeat. The only part of the song she knew. Now I just looked it up on youtube and the song is called “Down” by Jay Sean ft Lil Wayne. DUDEEEEE I really like the I’m Yours remix w/ Lil Wayne HEHE.

So we finally arrived the reception and had some time to take pictures of the decor. Super cute!! They’ve been together since HS. They had their prom pic on display. HS sweethearts ftw!

Test shot w/ the 24-70L. HOLLER.

Test shot w/ flash. Dude my 430EX reloads so slow. I hate it when things reload so slow and you can’t use it again right after you’ve used it. Especially if you need to use it again and it just doesn’t work. Maybe it’s time to upgrade, na mean.

Dude the cake looked soooo yummy and pretty. I wanted to secretly dip my finger in it to see what it would taste like thatswhatshesaid.

So after we did that, we decided to set up our tents out on the beach to take a quick nap.

Left one is Emz. Mine is the fruity multi colored smaller one. Kicked off our shoes, had some Red Bull, took a quick nap, got a tan. I haven’t been to the beach in forever, it felt good to chill on the sand.

I am slightly worried about the repercussions of posting this picture…but this one is the one I call…BLUE STEEL.

We were on the sand taking some shots of the bridal/groom-al parties + bride&groom as well.
Here’s one of just the boys:

Mo lai mo qu de. Ni zhe ge bien tai. Zhe shi ta de O face.

So after shooting, we took a break inside and drank some iced cold water. Mmmm so good. Here are some model shots I got of Emz.

I like to call this one LIQUID E-MOTIONZ.

I like to call this one Classy FaSheezy.

This one is called I Just Farted Really Loudly During the Wedding When the Couple Was Exchanging Vows CRAP What Do I Do?

So the dinner started probably around 7ish and this was their toast. KAWAII DES NE.

 We had to leave early because of a fam situation which resolved itself while we were trying to get home. You know, on the way home we got lost because we were having intense conversations about exciting things. I missed the freeway about 3 times literally and ended up on the 60 almost back near Alhambra…but we were trying to get to central LA back to the church to get Emz car. Then we decided to go to BCD to get some soondubu. But when we got there, we decided against it and went to Hodori instead. Then we heard Jay Chou was going to be at Area so we debated going there. Except, we were extremely exhausted. MY SISTER CHILLED W/ JAY CHOU at his table…hao lucky oh. But that’s me sidetracking again. So after Hodori, took Emz back to her car, then drove home.

So I saved my fav for last…ladies and gentlement, I present to you, the many faces of…DOMOPHOTOGRAPHY.

OKAY PEACE OUT. Time to eat some STINKYTOFU HOT POT!!!

I’m feeling delirious. Dear FTPs, I effing despise you. Let me use my own domain name for my wordpress already. INSTALL YOURSELF G’DAMMIT.

Feeling delirious and many even about to hallucinate, I must retreat to bed. G’night world, go fall in love already. Soooo freaking jealous.

Why?  I do not know.

Also, dear www.artbrewer.com,

You make me want to quit photography.

Thank you.

Yours truly,

Tiff.

If you’ve been following my blog from the beginning (which hasnt been that long ago), you might have remembered a post where I was whining about how I got lost for 2 hours trying to shoot the LA skyline at night over the 110 freeway. Well, this time, I was armed w/ knowledge of the exact location I needed to be. HOLLAAAAAAAA!!!

Maybe a black  & white rendition?

Anyway, I’m super glad that I finally got the shots. Sans tripod might I add. I sat on the dirty floor of some random freeway overpass bridge. I probably caught herpes because I was wearing shorts.

Kim’s gorgeous dress.

Directions to the wedding site.

Here comes the bride..

So we made it to the wedding site at around 3:30ish, if I remember correctly. There was a good amount of time before the wedding so we spied on the bride and groom while they had their private time.

Pretty roses.

omg how cute is this little boy?! He was banging away on the djembe like a pro. Yes, djembe. It’s a word, okay? I was in pit during high school, I WOULD KNOW.

Dad flipping son upside down

A quick prayer before the ceremony.

Kim and her daddy.

Kim’s father is a pastor. How convenient!

Chocolate, vanilla, and red velvet cupcakes.

My favorite candid shot of the day. I saw the sign and as Kim walked down the steps, I got lucky and caught it

My favorite posed shot of the day. Fellas hangin’ out by the train depot.

The first time Kim and Albino were presented as wifey & hubby.

I love seeing people in love. It’s so cute and endearing. I can’t wait for my friends to get married. It’ll be interesting to see how people end up. Overall, an exciting fun filled day that ended with a night of dancing. And my, do Kim & Albino know how to get down. The guests were just as fun to party and boogie with. Unfortunately, I lasted til about 9:30pm when I left and got home and promptly knocked out at 10:30pm. What a Saturday!

First off, I’d like to say HAPPY HUMP DAY. (Please reference the picture above).

I know. 3 entries in 24 hours. Told you I’m trying to get better.

On Monday, I went over to Emz place and we decided to have a doggy play date with Mochi and Dozer, her pug. He is soooo cuuuteeeee!! We let them meet and all he kept doing was sniff her in certain private areas while she returned the favor. (Mochi, not Emz HAHA).

They didn’t really get to playing much…Mochi was acting weird. Whenever Dozer sniffed her she would get all mad and walk away but when Dozer wasn’t looking, she’d go and sniff him. I think they only chased each other around twice.

Then they started smelling spots on the grass and digging and then torpedo-ing their faces into the grass patch. Okay, so the term torpedo is used by me when Mochi does a nose dive type thing and rubs her entire face and eventually her body on the grass/carpet/blankets/whatevershedecidestotorpedo.

Dozer apparently does the same. That was probably the most amusing part of their playdate.

(Hi Dozzzzzzzer)

 (Dozer starshots)

 (Emz attempting to carry both and Dozer struggling to get away)

 (HAHA this picture just looks funny. I would imagine their dog conversation to go something like this – Mochi: Yo Dozer, what the hell are you doing?? Dozer: Nothin much…just chillennnn)

(Mochi being lazy and tired after I chased her around)

 (HAHAHA DOZER AND HIS RETARDED EYE)

 (Torpedo status)

(Dozers too heavy to be carried and he was being a trouble maker so Emz had to escort him)

(SMELL MY BO attack)

 (Hail Hitler)

 (Head in awkward position)

(Gimme the ball or I’ll slap you in the face)

 (Blocked SON)

 (He’s trippin)

 (Fly like an eagle to the sea to the sea)

 (Intense game face on)

 (Babe is a ball grabber)

(In da butt.)
