are getting married and this is one person who couldn’t be happier! I have know Manuela for about 2 1/2 years; she has been a bridesmaid in 3 weddings I have photographed. All I have to say is get ready to fall in love. These two are irresistable.
Before I share more engagement photos, I want to revisit Manuela the bridesmaid. One thing I noticed about every wedding Manuela was in was that she was always right there. Always helping out, taking care of the bride, being a great friend. So I thought to go along with this post, I would share some images of her from Donna, Ramona, and Lavi’s wedding along with a letter I received from her about 2 years ago. It was truly for me the highest of compliments. I am beyond excited for Manuela and Eric. To be a part of their wedding. And to see Donna & Ben, Ramona & Darren and Lavi & John again in March 2009. Since getting married all of the couples have had daughters in the order they got married. Isn’t this what life’s all about!
Donna & Ben’s Wedding.
Ramona & Darren’s wedding. Ramona is Manuela’s sister.
Lavi & John’s wedding.
The unbelievably gracious letter I received from Manuela in the fall of 2006. It seriously brought tears to my eyes!
hi leigh…from the ever-present-bridesmaid:
hi leigh, it’s manuela. donna gave me the password to the wedding album and i was looking through it with tears in my eyes. then i went to your blog and looked at john & lavi’s pictures which are incredible and realized how many amazing moments are missed by the eye and what an amazing difference a wonderful photographer makes. then i went and looked at my sister & darren’s blog pictures with tears in my eyes once again. to say you’re talented would be an understatment. i’m sure each of the couples have thanked you over and over for the amazing moments you’ve captured for them but i wanted to do it also because you seriously make all the difference. i loved each and every wedding that you have shot. thank you. thank you. thank you.
i don’t know when i’ll be getting married but i’m putting you on notice now that you’ll be doing all of my pictures for it. there’ll be no backing out and i’m reserving you years in advance!
you rock, manuela
So I’m sure you can see why I am so excited. Now the fabulous Manuela and Eric. Who couldn’t quit smiling all day!

Those black and white montages are so great! Inspiring me to make a B+W montage of my own wedding pics!
@Nicole: thank you! im so excited to be here and am going to be sharing lots and lots of things.
@AliCherri1: thank you! i really appreciate all the kind comments.
@Mrs. Penguin: its so fun to share these photos of the weddings i shot that manuela was in as a bridesmaid. im SO excited about seeing all the couples again. and meet their babies!
What a cute couple! It is interesting that there are not any pictures here with the groom’s full face… Did he have a preference of not being shown?
@Miss Hot Cocoa: signs rule! i think that was erics idea! isnt he awesome.
@Mrs. Pinot Noir: no not at all. i just chose the shots that i felt were the most dynamic. these two really seemed to shine when eric was looking at manuela. you could just feel his love for her and the look on her face says it all. in reality theres only 1 photo of manuela where shes actually looking at the camera in this set.
@Joe Milton: thank you joe! that means the world and what i always strive to do.

About Me: People often ask me how I got my start in wedding photography. The truth is i fell into it. Almost by accident. But after my first wedding I was sold. I moved full force ahead. And within a year I went full-time leaving behind my life as a therapist and social worker. And the rest, as they say, is history. In November I celebrated my 3rd year of being a full-time photographer! Today, I feel so blessed to get to do something I love and to work with amazing couples all over the country and world! I have traveled to the Bahamas, Jamaica, all over Mexico and all the way to England to shoot weddings. I live in southern California with my husband, two sons, two really loud birds and a short, fat yellow lab named Mrs. Jones. All, at various times, make an appearance on my blog.
I fall more in love with your work everytime you post! Just beautiful, girl!
