Never did I think that instagram and hashtagging would actually be worth all the time that goes into it -but it definitely did when I met Sylvia and Darryl! They were the first clients that weren't referred by mutual friends -so this was a brand new experience for the both of us! I knew from the first email that Sylvia sent me that they were going to be a great couple to work with! She opened up immediately telling me all about their love story -how she met Darryl while working at the movie theater and they've been dating for 14 years! Now that's something to be proud of! After getting to hang out with them at their engagement session (photos HERE) I knew that their wedding was going to be great! They are such an easy going down to earth couple that you just want to surround yourself with! During their speeches friends and family praised them for being amazing people -together and individually. Sylvia's maid of honor gave them three keywords of advice for a strong successful marriage; courtesy, compromise, and communication. Great words of wisdom! Darryl & Sylvia thank you so much for sharing your special day with us! I'm so thankful to have met you! Can you say stunning!!! These Badgley Mischka's are gorg!!! Sylvia thought of a sweet creative gift for her bridesmaids -personalized hangers! She also gave each of her bridesmaids these customized handkerchiefs for happy tears only! Darryl wasn't lying when he said that tennis shoes was his THING! He ordered these stylish silver "Super Bowl Trophy Pack" nikes just for his big day!!! All Souls Church is where the ceremony was held. I'm still swooning over these two lovebirds!!! I love that they incorporated the movie theme into their wedding -since it was such a huge part of their love story! Their candy bar was filled with all the candies that you would see at the movie theaters! Yumm!!! How adorable is this theater seats and popcorn cake topper! Darryl prepared a sweet mini movie for his beautiful bride! Such a perfect Mother son moment! Love that they chose a dance from the movie "Pulp Fiction" for their mother-son dance! Epic! Many thanks to the amazing team who made this wedding come to life...

I'M JANELLE MARINA
Wife, Mama Shark, + Photographer. Most days, you'll find me in mismatched socks and a top knot, working behind my computer with a smile on my face, listening to Zac Brown Band and R&B --or, dancing in the kitchen with my 3 littles and hunka husband, seeing who could come up with the coolest dance moves. I'm a wedding photographer, West Elm lover, aspiring advocate for our buddies with special needs, and a Certified Dreamer since 1986. We live in a cozy city in Southern California and are always up for a good adventure. I enjoy telling stories with my camera, grubbing on spicy food, and solving the latest Dateline case.
