Jen Huston and Olu Davis-Sunday, April 17th, 2011-Los Angeles

Jenifer wore an elegant white ruffled mini dress by Marchesa and stilettos by Badgley Mischka for her unique pop of something blue. Her delicate accessories  added a perfect balance of vintage glamor, blending effortlessly with the old Hollywood surroundings of the famous Biltmore Hotel , where the bride and groom prepared for the evenings festivities. Her gems  included her something borrowed- a stunning braided  necklace from one night affair, and her something new, a modern bcbg bracelet. Olu wore a linen seersucker suit in pale soft colors, with a tie by Robert Talbott Carmel . In our adventurous downtown photo shoot, we danced across street corners in downtown Los Angeles traffic to the encouraging honks of cars boasting congratulatory yelps ( and some racier comments too!) My favorite location was the Broadway bar, where the bride confessed that their first “business” dinner was sealed with a romantic first kiss.The reception was held at the intimate Magnolia lounge where family and friends enjoyed pomegranate mojitos and danced to the tunes of friend and DJ Kaleem. The guests enjoyed the couples favorite comfort foods while Olu’s 18 half brothers and 25 half sisters and 30 real sisters and cousins welcomed the esteemed Jenifer to the new family. My stanky leg performance started briskly at 9pm which was followed by Jenifer’s Aunties teaching the crowd how to get down to traditional Arabic music. A big thank you to Kingsley Osuetta for helping photograph the reception at daring 6400 ISO. If my camera goes missing I know who to call. Love you guys, and Love to my favorite adopted family.
