We are excited to say that one of our photos has been featured on Entertainment Tonight! This segment of Entertainment Tonight announces that supermodel, business mogul, and philanthropist Kathy Ireland is helping a very lucky military couple have their dream Hawaii Wedding here on Oahu!
L’Amour Photography photographed this wedding setup at Oasis World Estates in Honolulu with beautiful floral designs by Passion Roots and event design by REA Events and Design. This is just one example of the lavish Hawaii wedding ceremony setup that the military couples can imagine themselves enjoying as they walk down the isle if they are the winners of this extraordinary opportunity.
L’Amour Photography’s work was featured tonight on VH1′s Wedding Wars premier! You may recognize contestants Mario and Melinda from our previous post of their fun engagement photo session in San Francisco. This gorgeous couple have been together for 12 years and are ready to do anything and everything humanly possible to win their ultimate wedding . Mario and Melinda are battling it out against 11 other couples on VH1′s new reality show to win their dream wedding. Wedding Wars was filmed here on Oahu at Turtle Bay Resort and as we all just learned on Wedding Wars Episode 1, these competitive couples started out their Hawaii get away in the private Ocean Villas. Unfortunately, their relaxing ocean front accommodations were swept out from under them as they headed off into the jungle to get better acquainted with the natural landscapes of Hawaii. Only grass huts, bugs, spiders, rain water, and rice & beans for the rest of the competition! We can already tell, things are about to get ugly. If you missed this episode, you can view it on VH1′s website here.
We are so excited to share that L’amour Photography’s Chief Photographer, Eric Mansperger, has been featured on thePocketWizard Blog! Eric was chosen out of countless applicants to be a Beta Tester for new products from PocketWizard. Being chosen to be one of the select few to be able to preview these industry leading products has been a great honor and having one of our photo’s featured on their blog has left us blushing! Mahalo, PocketWizard !!!!

We are honored to announce that L’amour Photography has been featured in the Real Weddings article in the latest edition of Pacific Weddings Magazine Summer/Fall 2010.
Pacific Weddings Magazine Hawaii Real Wedding by L'Amour Photography
Michelle and Mark were such an amazing couple, beautiful inside and out. Their Hawaii destination wedding was held at the historic Bayer Estate with a turquoise blue and ivory color scheme adding vibrance to starfish and sand dollar accents of their beach themed wedding. Michelle looked classic and elegant in her cream colored wedding dress which Michelle had altered to fit her dreams of the perfect wedding dress. She had the front of the skirt of her wedding dress shortened, showcasing her Badgley Mischka shoes, and each layer of her voluminous dress was lined with satin ribbon. This fashionable bride worked with Designs by Hemmingway for her wedding flowers and decided to go with a simple white orchid corsage instead of the traditional wedding bouquet.
L’amour Photography has been published in editorial “Plume” featuring the vintage inspired wedding accessory line, La Plume Couture, in the latest edition of Pacific Weddings Magazine Summer/Fall 2010.

When we were approached to photograph the new La Plume Couture line, we knew we would have a great time capturing all of the intricate details. The historic Bayer Estate was the perfect backdrop for these photos featuring feather bouquets, beaded purses, and vintage hats. L’Amour’s own, Wendy, even modeled some of the items with makeup and styling done by Heather Belle.

The last 13 days for us have been jam packed! Just the way we like it! We are extremely grateful for each of the awesome couples we have gotten to work with in the last two weeks. We have had the best time photographing and meeting each of these couples.
Seven weddings, one “post-wedding” session, one portrait session, one senior portrait and two days of the Wedding Expo. We have traveled around Oahu to beaches, hotels, resorts, cliffs, etc. In just the last two weeks we have photographed at the Westin Moana Surfrider in Honolulu, Waialae Beach Park, Turtle Bay Resort on the North Shore, Kaka’ako Beach Park, Haiku Gardens and Haleiwa Joe’s Restaurant in Kaneohe, the Blowhole lookout point and Sandy Beach, Royal Hawaiian Hotel, Sheraton Waikiki, and Hilton Hawaiian Village. Wow, my fingers are tired now from all that typing!
Phew! No time for rest. We are flying out to California tomorrow to photograph a wedding in the Bay Area. We are so grateful to do what we love, work together, meet all of these great people, travel for work and visit our family and friends in California at the same time. LIFE IS GOOD !
We are very excited to announce that Leslie Mansperger Photography has changed its name to L’Amour Photography!

Our friends over at Kai Media have been having some fun with some of the footage from the recent Oahu Wedding Association briadal fashion show. The opening shot is Wendy getting her hair done.. followed by both of us dorking around doing a husband and wife photo shoot.
Enjoy!
Thanks to Kai-Media for their awesome work! Check out two of our favorite Kai-Media videos. Wendy’s favorite is from a wedding in Lanikai (click here to see video). My favorite video is an “artistic battle music video.” I don’t even know how to put it into words. Its simply amazing! (click here to see video)
