Pro photo shoot – an Indian wedding in Huntington Beach, CA

Last Saturday I shot an Indian wedding reception in Huntington Beach, CA at the Hilton Waterfront Hotel. Strangely enough, this is where my sister’s wedding reception was 12 years ago – brought back memories of her wedding photo album.

Just before the shoot I was able to stop at Samy’s camera in Santa Ana, CA to pick up a circular polarizer for my Cokin P series filter mount (I just recently purchased it and hadn’t yet bought any drop in filters for it). It was pricey – $91 with tax – but I really wanted a polarizer (I lost my last one… I have no idea what happened to it) and the cool thing is I’ll be able to use it on both my video camera and my still cameras with the cool P series deal.

So the shoot was flawless – the bride and groom were good people (not to mention well dressed). It had been a while since I shot photography for a wedding and it made me realize I should probably start taking on some non video gigs from time to time. This was the 7th wedding that I shot this summer (6 video, 1st photog).

Here are just a few pictures that I really liked:
