Our inspiration for picking up the camera has and always will be our couples. Katrina and I have been fortunate enough to not only have these people accept us to document the most important day of their lives, but also to accept us to be their friends and family. Your stories are our life.

Brandon started his photography career in college when he joined the school newspaper. A passion for capturing real moments and telling the story led him to become the photography editor and win several awards for his coverage within only a year. Shortly afterwards he began shooting weddings with Katrina using this same style. The rest is history.

Serena + Johnny

Photographed by Brandon Wong and Katrina Santos. Written by Brandon Wong

Despite coming from rival schools UCLA and USC, Serena and Johnny were still able to set apart their differences and get married at one of our favorite restaurants Summit House. Along with having some great prime rib, the hill top venue also gave their guests one of the best views of Orange County.

We’ve never met a more easygoing and carefree bride than Serena, who spontaneously picked out her jewelry the day of the wedding and never stressed one second about the details. Johnny is the more quiet and reserved one of the couple, but after they got hitched I think we all saw his wilder side come out. We also did a photobooth for them and by the end of the night all of the our props somehow made it onto the dance floor as the party went on until the late hours of the night.
