Beautiful baby, beautiful family, beautiful photos.May 1, 2012 – 12:14 am
Some images from a gorgeous Spring wedding at The Prado… Marie and Sean are a really relaxed, low-key couple who are obviously head over heals in love. They planned an afternoon wedding in beautiful Balboa Park on a gorgeous Spring day. Their decor was amazing! They incorporated a lot of old books into their center pieces and even made paper flowers from the pages. Since they are both teachers and lovers of theater, this was perfect. Another touch I loved…Marie had fabric from her Mother’s lace wedding dress added to her own dress. The neckline was absolutely gorgeous! There were so many sweet, handmade touches at this wedding. For their first dance, they danced to “Can’t Help Falling in Love,” but an incredibly sweet version by Ingrid Michaelson. I felt like this song was just so fitting for them… understated, authentic, simply and absolutely lovely. Best wishes to this lovely couple! I can tell they are going to continue to be very, very happy together.

All flowers & centerpieces were donated to the SD Hospice after the event through Swann Soirees…really great idea.

Every picture was thrilling to me. I am Marie’s Great Aunt, and so very proud of her. I have not had the pleasure of meeting Sean yet, but know he’s wonderful just by her choosing him. I was unable to make the wedding due to illness, and am very excited to see all of the pictures. My favorite one is with her Mom, Kendra (my niece). She has always been like a daughter to me, and to see them in that picture brings me great joy. The Dasteels are a beautiful family.April 22, 2012 – 8:02 pm

Love the photos guys, especially the one of where you are reflected in the water. And maybe just because it also features Winston.April 11, 2012 – 10:58 pm
Love the 5th one, it is so romantic when you guys hold hands and walking by the beach, and the reflection in the water is amazing too!!April 11, 2012 – 11:46 pm
Beautiful pictures. I love all of them but my favorite is the one that see you are kissing from the reflection in the water. You two look great together. Congrats!

Love the photos, especially the one with the pants Rodion would only ever wear in an engagement photo. Congrats guys!April 12, 2012 – 3:16 pm
Awesome photos! Love the one with you on the beach and the one with the photographerApril 12, 2012 – 3:23 pm
My favorite of you two is the fourth from the bottom (Ro in green polo, Lusha in polka dots), but I also love the one of you guys on the beach (fifth from top).April 12, 2012 – 5:05 pm
Gorgeous couple, captured beautifully! My favorite is the reflection photo. Congratulations!!April 12, 2012 – 5:25 pm
I love, love, love them all!!! The 7th one down is my favorite! Also, the reflection in the water is awesome too. I love the last one with the North Park sign, it looks great in the background, but you and Lusha are cleary focus of the picture! The picure with the Torrey Pines Sandstone in the background is a bonus too! April 12, 2012 – 7:05 pm
Hey Ro & Lusha,
Great shots… really. You picked one hell of a photographer. I must admit when Yulia told me “pre-wedding” shots, my “schmaltz / staged photo hell” radar went off, well because that’s what I usually see. These are very genuine, slice-of-life, beautiful shots of you two. And the best part is how much the photos evoke your love for one another. Bravo.

So hard to choose a favorite! Love the reflection photo and the polka dot dress close up – your expressions look really natural in that photo! Ro – I think the thumbs/hands in the pockets is your signature look?!April 13, 2012 – 12:21 am
Look guys look awesome! Each picture is like a snapshot of your life. I feel very privileged to see them! Loved each one!April 13, 2012 – 7:52 pm
Congratulations to both of you. I especially like one under the tree which reminds me of a cover from a storybook.April 14, 2012 – 2:55 am
These pictures are all great. I think the best one is the one with the reflection since it tells the complete story in a single picture. Great work capturing the happy couple…April 14, 2012 – 7:21 am
