Rebelo Wedding

Alright, I have to say Cristal and Chris are amazing! This lovely couple decided to participate in a contest I was hosting last year. If you got the most new fan likes to the page you would win a free hour long photoshoot with unlimited photos and edits. Sweet right? Half way through the week Cristal kicked it into high gear and got practically 80 new likes! Sadly, she came in second, but received a prize for playing. This lead to our "Twilight Inspired" Engagement session!

 This in itself was an adventure. We plan to meet at the Berkeley Botanical Gardens... 3 hours later we finally found each other!Lets just say, that place is WAYYY bigger than you'd think. Note to self: pick easy meeting spot. Anyway, once we got going it was all downhill from there!

Lucky for me, this wasn't our last session together! I got to see the couple on their big day.

July 14, 2012 Rebelo Wedding!!

The package chosen was the All Day Coverage. I started the day off meeting with Cristal at The Dollhouse in Brentwood, Ca for make up and hair with hairstylist Cat Perez and make up artist Priscilla Diaz. Who are, ahhmazzazzing by the way! 

Next stop was to Chris's house, and got some fun shots of all the groomsmen together. They were definitely entertaining!

Back to Cristal's house right before the Ceremony! 

The Ceremony was located at Holy Rosary Church in Antioch, Ca.

The ceremony was beautiful. The church had huge ceilings with big glass windows, and full of color. Cristal and Chris looked like the royal party in that place! (for reals though) 

Next stop, the BAD Ass.. reception! Located in , The Grand Island Mansion was a HUGE venue. With a 1900's vib, this place was amazing. Huge movie theater, pool room, cappuccino room, and huge dance and dinner halls! When we got there after one hell of a drive, the venue screamed classic beauty. 

Cristal had a creative idea of hopping in the bathtub!

I have to say, Cristal and Chris were such an easy fun couple to shoot. It was such a blast, and just by watching them you can tell they are meant for the long run with each other. Thanks guys for the fabulous night!
