Lily & Jimmy's Wedding



Lily & Jimmy held their wedding on November 1, 2008 at the Golden Palace in Fresno. I've been to Fresno once (for a John Mayer / Maroon 5 concert) and had forgetten just how far away it was. The day was rainy, some things didn't go quite as planned, but at the end of the night, you knew these two would be there for each other, regardless of whatever gets thrown their way. A few faves:

Lily's beautiful bouquet:


Putting on the finishing touches:


Possibly my favorite photo - ever. The backlighting, Lily's soft expression, her bridesmaids' dress color - I love it all! I will definitely be entering this photo to the next WPJA contest (nope, it wasn't posed - she's just that naturally graceful):


A little relaxed portrait; isn't she pretty?


Another fave:


This was just in the hallway. The picture has no real inherent "value" by itself, but I think it's moody, dark, but lovely because of Lily's bashful smile.


Another fave! I love-love-love-love the juxtaposition of the rain-drenched concrete and the shiny, satin material from the bridesmaid dresses. And that they all pulled up their dresses to keep them from getting wet? A cute detail that I truly appreciate. (Don't even get me started on the slightly bent leg on the top left corner - adorable!)


And, all the boys lined up on the side of the Golden Palace wall. It rained shortly after I took this shot.


And then it stopped raining and they walked it out.


Back to the ladies.


Check Lily out!


A little architectural detail of the Golden Palace. It really is quite a nice place for events.

The two of them canoodling (:


This was just so money. Jimmy's nonchalance and Lily's sweetness ... aww. No, she didn't retaliate. (;


I hope you enjoyed the images. Check out the wedding slideshow as well. (;
