Persian Wedding at the La Jolla Marriott: Nahal & Kamron | San Diego Wedding Photography

Sometime last week, Emily sent me the timeline for Nahal & Kamron’s wedding. Since I had not photographed nor attended a Persian wedding before, I asked my dear friend, Google, for information. Mr. Goog graciously led me to YouTube, where the girls and I spent a good hour watching numerous videos of Persian weddings, replete with traditional knife dances and honey exchanges. When I saw Emily on Saturday, she told me she had done the same thing! :) Ah, what would we do without the internet?

Every detail in Nahal and Kamron’s wedding at the La Jolla Marriott was gorgeous: from the beautiful flowers, to the meaningful items in their sofreh, to their warm, expressive families. I felt so honored to have been able to take part in it.

Here’s the beautiful bride:bride portrait.jpg

and the couple:

They were so cute together. I love these “in-between” moments when the couple isn’t conscious of the camera, and they can just relax and enjoy each other…

wow that is a unique use of dendrobium madame viper on a wedding cake. I’ll have to remember to forward this to all my persian friends that I went to law school with, although we are not on great speaking terms because i supported the spartans.
