Timber Creek Ball Room Roseville 0032 Timber Creek Ballroom Wedding | Roseville, Ca | Wedding Photography

After fourteen years of dating, Fahm and Xahmeng finally got married and had their wedding at the Timber Creek Ballroom in Roseville, Ca. About a year ago, I was invited to experience their traditional Mien wedding in Merced and this weekend I was able to document their American wedding at Timber Creek. It was a joy sharing this special day with them and an honor to photograph all the great moments at this wedding. I feel very fortunate to call this couple my friends! Here are some of my favorites from the day. Big ups to Rob Her and Sam Vannasopha for coming out to Roseville help me with this wedding! You guys rock.

I’m Engaged! | My Proposal in Oahu, Hawaii

March 14, 2012 43 comments

E-mail Ari to Document Your Wedding

Aloha friends and family! I’m so very happy to announce that my Hawaii trip has lead to an engagement with my girlfriend. We started the day going around different places in Hawaii to take lots of pictures on self-timer.

One of the highlights from our trip was our moped ride to Hanauma Bay to go snorkeling in the rain!

After taking pictures at a couple locations, we ended up at Kailua Beach where I felt it was the right time. I set up the camera on self timer and composed the shot as if I was going to take a picture. When I went down to Kat, she continued to pose for a picture, as she’s doing the entire day. She had no idea until I got down on one knee and pulled out the ring.

Here’s a short video clip of my proposal. It’s totally out of focus, but it still makes me smile every time I watch it.

Here’s a direct link to a higher quality video: Kat+Ari Hawaii proposal.

Mahalo!
