Laura and Harold were planning on quietly going to the courthouse to say their vows.  But pressure from family led them to the First Christian Church in North Hollywood and to me!  They found me while search for small intimate churches and they came across Nikki and Eric’s wedding at Forest Lawn.  

The ceremony was very intimate, about 30 friends and family members were there to witness their profession of love and marriage.

The first time I met Laura was in the church’s getting ready room.  Her sister/Maid of Honor was there as well.

I loved her Jessica McClintock gown with the gorgeous sash!

In this shot I am standing at the very back of the church.  It was so tiny!  The also have a larger chapel for their Sunday services.

The beautiful Laura!

And the handsome groom, Harold!

I wasn’t hired to shoot their reception, so we walked around the church grounds for some romantic shots!

Her smile just lights up around her husband!  (my favorite of the day!)

Ok, this one is a close second for my fav!

I thought Harold’s ring was so awesome, then I found out he designed it himself!  Double awesome!!!

And of course, I’m a sucker for a Canary Diamond!    Love this ring, I want one just like it!  🙂

Harold and Laura, I wish you only the best in your new life together!  It was great meeting you two!
