Scripps Seaside Forum Wedding | Duong and David

Jul 7, 2015

Duong and David spent their wedding day smiling, laughing and surrounded by their family and friends on the bluff at Scripps Beach in La Jolla.  The colors were bright, the mood was fun….the sky was blue, the drinks were flowing.  This is a wedding you would love to be a guest at! But photographing it is even better, because we got to observe and capture all of those in-between moments that we may have missed if we were there as guests.  Beautiful wedding, Duong and David!  It’s very clear that you have a strong community of friends and family, and that combined with the love and admiration you clearly have for each other is going to lead to a lifetime of fun and happiness together.

COMMENTs:

  1. Gail Henry (Mom) says:

    I love all the photographs and believe you did an excellent job. While you were at the event, I never sensed you were even there taking pictures or even video taping. I just love the Wedding Highlights video and have watched it so many times. It still gives me goosebumps each time I watch it. I can’t wait to see all the pictures because I know all of them are going to be as outstanding and creative as what I’ve seen so far! Thank you for such a job well done!

  2. Duong says:

    You guys are ridiculously talented and purely incredible! Thank you so much for capturing our special day and all the wonderful moments that we will cherish forever. I love that you captured Coti on his hind legs with the superman cape on- so awesome! It was such a pleasure working with you! We LOVE you guys and all your work! We can’t thank you enough! Xoxoxo

  3. Leslie says:

    LOVE the last shot! It so perfectly captures the fun-loving personalities of both Du and David. They are always making each other smile and laugh, they really know how to have fun with each other and that’s something that is going to carry them through life together!

    My favorite is the one under the pier!!!! I absolutely adore it.

  7. Trang says:

    I love all the pictures taken! So creative and beautifully taken!

  8. David Smith says:

    For some reason I assumed that the groom shouldn’t be commenting on the event but my amazing wife has just let me know otherwise. Better half is already teaching me something. So yeah…BEST DAY EVER!!! I loved the laid back vibe that was present throughout the entire day. Normally I’m a hot mess talking in-front of a bunch of people. This was the first time I wasn’t nervous. I can only assume that was because of all the love in the room 🙂 POPS!!! Thank you for capturing Duong’s beauty for us and doing your best to make me look like I deserve to be with such a lovely woman.

    With pictures like these, question is : why weren’t you two wearing super hero shirts/socks also??
    Amazing job with utmost professionalism (lost count of how many times Rick turned down bourbon shots)!!

    Coti asked me to blog this “please photo shop the leash out of the picture so it looks like I’m ready to take off and fly, and not like I’m being hung instead.”

    The captured moments are great! Had a great time with the wedding party and Narrative Images played a key role in making things roll smoothly during the day. They made the wedding that much more fun to be a part of.
