We were SO excited for Melina and Ashot’s wedding! We witnessed a lot of their love story first hand and were privileged to take their gorgeous engagement photos (check them out here!).

Melina is a total ball of manic energy! She is so talkative, curious, and has the most infectious laugh. She is always a pleasure to be around and will always bring a fun dynamic to conversations.


Ashot is Melina’s opposite and perfect match. He is very calm and more on the quiet side, but he has a strong wit to match Melina’s and a subtle humor. He would be the first to tell you that he wasn’t used to being the center of attention of so many people. But on their wedding day he only had eyes for Melina.

When he first saw his bride in her dress Ashot’s face lit up like Christmas morning (we captured it in slomo and it is hands down my favorite part of their wedding film!). Check out the highlights video

Their wedding day seemed to mirror their personalities. Moments of quiet expectation gave way to endless laughter and dancing. And speaking of dancing, one of the aspects of their wedding we enjoyed most were the cultural traditions they incorporated. A group of performers did a traditional Armenian dance at their reception! The couple’s families also incorporated a number of other traditions for good fortune and blessing. We always feel so blessed to capture and share in these intimate moments and to experience parts of other cultures that we might normally never see.
