Ever pondered upon a word that you may see or hear everyday and forget what it all means? Well for me as a photographer, it's the word monochromatic.  And I quote "monochrome is a word which has been derived from Greek. It has been derived with the combination of two Greek words. The former part that is mono means single or one and the latter comes from chroma which means either the surface or the color of the skin. An object which is monochromatic has only one color."  A couple of weeks ago, I had the pleasure of witnessing two distinguished individuals who shares an undeniable singular connection with one another.  They had a beautiful ceremony at the Los Angeles River Center and Garden attended by their families and friends.  The day went so incredibly well, the food were so delicious, and the toasts were just rolling-on-the-floor hilarious.  So for this special post, I want to revisit Giselle and Ted's wedding day in monochromatic fashion. 

Venue ~  Los Angeles River Center and Garden
