My incredible luck with rain continued today (and this year).
It rained hard yesterday, but I managed to complete formal wedding photographs outdoor.

Today’s wedding was in Buena Park, Radisson Suites Hotel.
It rained even harder today than yesterday.
When I was driving through Los Angeles it was pouring in full force.
Traffic was jammed, visibility was bad, and road was dangerous.
Look at the picture below.
Yes, I was photographying and driving, don’t try this at home.

Puring rain in Los Angeles. Professional photographer, don’t try this.

But, somehow, I knew I will not get wet.  I believed.
I am on my incredible streak of luck with rain.
When I arrived at Buena Park, the rain stopped.
This is what I saw at Radisson Suites Hotel Buena Park (below).
I photographed below shot about 20 minutes after going through heavy rain in Los Angeles.
If you look at lower left corner, you can see the dark cloud in Los Angeles area.

Buena Park is a big city in the middle of other big cities. They don’t have much parks and golf clubs in Buena Park, so if you want outdoor wedding, you should count out Buena Park.  Buena Park has a very few small golf clubs.

It’s ironic.  They are named “Buena Park”, but they don’t have a lot of good parks.  Perhaps “Park” stands for a family name.  FYI: My last name is Park .

Anyway, I expected I would not be doing any wedding photography work in the woods. Indeed, all our photographs were taken inside the hotel. It was a big wedding, so the only place I can fit this big group was either parking lot or by the swimming pool.

I chose to photograph the group by the swimming pool.  I was standing a few inches away from the edge of the pool most of the time.  I had to be extra careful not to fall in the water.  All the reflections from concrete and glasses made my job difficult, they turn people’s skin look cold and gray.  I had to compensate for that. 

The bride and groom stayed at Radisson Suites as well, so bride was less tired and looked fresh. 

Soon, the party went on. And rest was a history. 
God bless everyone.
