Newport Beach, CA: Baher & Nourane had a traditional Coptic Orthodox ceremony at the Archangel Michael Coptic Orthodox Church in Santa Ana. If you are wondering about the Coptic Orthadox Church, see this article on wikipedia. Despite the Ring bearer taking a nap halfway through – the ceremony was beautiful, poignant and a pleasure to photograph. Their lively reception was held at the Newport Beach Marriott.

It was a cloudy day, but Annie and Tom shone brightly for Chris as he covered their wedding at The Summit House Restaurant in Fullerton. They are a great couple that really knew how to throw a party. Tom was also the only groom we’ve known to show up in a Lamborghini! The closest we’ve ever come to owning one was during childhood days when Micro Machines were all the rage, and the Lamborghini was the king pin of every boys collection – so jealousy was an emotion Chris had to suppress when shooting their very cool first look shoot.
Now, this is a game we haven’t seen before. The Groom has to carry the Bride around the room with a bucket to collect “Good Luck” money….and they are making him run all over the place. If he gets tired and drops her, no more money!
Jacob recently became a member of the prestigious Wedding Photojournalist Association (WPJA) – a great achievement in itself as it is a fantastic organization who are notoriously fussy (in a good way) about the caliber of photographer they let in. In order to join you have to display a real competency in photography, a large body of purely photojournalistic wedding work, and possess an excellent track record with past clients – ideal qualities for a Jinger Studios Photographer! Sadly the WPJA do not let whole “studios” join, nevertheless we are very proud to have WPJA members in our ranks (Chris is also a member).
As if being given the nod of quality from a respected organization wasn’t enough – Jacob has promptly gone on to win an award from them. Chosen from thousands of highly talented applicants, Jacob’s image of a boy jumping around in his suit before a wedding was ranked 15th in the Quarterly photo contest in it’s category “Getting Ready”. We’ve always loved Jacob’s ability to capture these great candid action shots and are delighted his work has been recognized by the WPJA!
