Producing the first-ever Wedding Yentas photo shoot was so fun and rewarding, but a lot of hard work went into the big day! The Yentas called upon a fabulous network of wedding vendors to come on board. Our style queens, Susie Chhuor Makeup<\/a> and Natascha Roberto<\/a>, arrived early for the 8 a.m. call time to transform our models into camera-ready bolero brides! Our photographers, Eight20 Photography<\/a>, Chelsea Elizabeth Photography<\/a>, Araxi Photography<\/a>, and Photography by Tara Rochelle<\/a>, were amped and ready to capture the boleros on the models and were pros at dealing with the mid-day light and windy conditions. Florist extraordinaire, Alison Franchi of Le Petit Gardenia<\/a>, set up one of the most beautiful table scapes we’ve ever seen, incorporating lush blooms with desert flora. Alison’s vision completed the vintage and natural style we wanted to convey. Major high 5 to this awesome team.<\/p>\n

Alison works her magic on the table, making sure everything is set juuuuuuuuuust right. <\/p>\n

Princeton is ready for his closeup. Oh wait, the entire shoot was his closeup! The photographers couldn’t resist snapping photos of one of the Yenta pooches! We all joked that he looked like a French waiter in his tie.

Jessica waits patiently and Eric holds up the reflector in the wind to shade model Lauren from the bright sun. Holding the flexible reflector in the wind was not easy! It kept blowing and wanting to fly away, making it more challenging for the photographers behind the cameras to get still shots!

Changing head pieces between shots was a 2-person job! Lauren relaxes and lets them fuss until the birdcage veil is perfect. It’s a tough job being fierce.

Photographers discuss and plan the next shots, deciding who to use, analyzing the boleros for each model, the direction of the sun, and new locations. It’s a science!

Models Alison and Jessica listen for explicit directions from such demanding photographers! Just kidding! By the end of the day, we were all pooped!

Thanks again to all of the wonderful vendors involved in the shoot. We can’t wait to produce more events like this and collaborating with a team of trusty vendors. If you’re a wedding vendor who would like to be a part of future events like this, please contact us in the Shmooze section of the site!<\/p>\n
