Meet Danelle & Fumikaza!

Danelle & Fumi were the second of this past weekend’s weddings, held at Rustic Hills Country Club. I first met Danelle & Fumi at an art exhibition held during one of our Northside District Art Walks. Fumi is a great artist who recently moved to the states from Japan and we all hit it off as friends almost immediately. That’s why it was such a great honor for me when Fumi and Danelle approached me about documenting their wedding.

Danelle seemed so calm and collected as she prepared for the day.

Fumi's three beautiful sisters, who taveled on a flight over 25 hours, along with the rest of the family from Japan to see their brother get married. You could tell that their family is really close and the girls were very excited to be visiting the US for the first time.

The wonderful couple.





This is a great goofy candid captured during the reception. It just really shows their personalities as they pose for a photo taken by a guest. So fun loving and laid back.

Fumi's unique creative style came through in the handmade guestbook and details.

They didn't even try to feed the cake to each other, just went straight for the faces!! By far the best cake cutting I've ever seen!

The end result!

Another thanks goes out to Danelle and Fumi for a wonderfully fun wedding! I look forward seeing more of these two in the future as Fumi showcases his work at the Norhtside Art Walks.
