Odinah and Paolo finally got married this past Friday after knowing one another for 10 years. The day started with Odinah getting-ready at the Hilton in Long Beach . The ceremony was held at the beautiful Mary Star of the Sea in San Pedro. The reception was at The Grand Ballroom at The Grand in Long Beach.
The two make a great couple. Paolo is the nicest guy you’ll ever meet. Odinah has an amazing complexion. I couldn’t help but take many close-ups throughout the day.
We had a heck of a time figuring out how to hang the dress against the head post. The bed was flush right up against the wall so there was no room to hook the dress up over the top. Anyone care to hazard a guess on how we managed to hold the dress up?
Ahh..natural window light is all so flattering. Look at Odinah’s immaculate skin.
Pst..hey Odinah, look over your left. I see Henry.
My goal is obviously to cover all the action of the day, but it’s the reaction to the event that I love capturing the most. The Bride and Groom are so involved in the moment that they miss all the emotional reactions from their loved ones.
Oh my goodness, I love this vintage photograph of the two them over-looking the downtown Long Beach skyline.
There are a few things I noticed in the photograph below:
1) The Flower-girl was literally holding her ground and not jumping.
2) The little boy is a future B-Ball player. Check out the height he’s got.
3) The woman are jumping. In heels!
4) One of the guys looks constipated. See if you can find him. Sorry, dude. There others in this set aren’t that much better for you 
This next photograph is hilarious. See if you notice anything strange.

Beautiful speech by the sister and Maid of Honor.
Nothing like a good milk tea boba to cheer Odinah right up.
Every wedding has some rock star kids that like to shake it on the dance floor. This wedding was no exception.
