jasmin & jerome's aftershoot

commentator: monica

i encourage every couple to do an aftershoot. why? because you get to don that beautiful gown again that you spent so much money on, without worrying about keeping it clean and take photos with your new spouse, in a relaxed and scenic location, without the hectic schedule of a wedding day.

jasmin & jerome who wed last month opted for this and boy, do their images scream for attention! this session was not your typical bride & groom session, as they were up for pretty much anything. they chose one of the batteries in the marin headlands as a location. (coincidentally, this is also where jasmin and i, as classmates in 5th grade, went on a 3-day class "camping" trip. but don't mention it to jerome, since he's still bitter that his class didn't get to go. yeah, we all go waaaaay back!) this is so different from the whimsical nature of their e-session location and the old plantation feel of their wedding location. this abandoned rundown place has an edgy, eery look that is quite beautiful, in it's own right. and we had an awesome sky that day to compliment the view. i recommend that couples look for something that is different than their wedding location as their aftershoot location, which adds lots of variety. and the more unconventional, the better.

congrats again to the newlyweds, jasmin & jerome!!!
