And now the part of the day that really matters after all is said and done – the actual wedding! This beautiful wedding was officiated by the bride’s uncle and the musical number and recital were such a nice added touch. The wedding reception was a great party with fabulous food, meaningful toasts, and lots…
Who knew formal portraits on a wedding day could be so fun? This group was just a pleasure to hang out with all day long. By the end of the day I felt like part of the family – both of their families! And the love they all share for each other was so evident…
There is an undercurrent of excitement everywhere we turn. Tables being set, flowers perfectly arranged, hair curled and makeup applied. A wedding day is typically dreamed of (at least for the bride) since childhood and it seems there’s never enough time to get everything ready! So many details to think of and schedules to plan!…
This wedding was just so amazing in so many ways. Every detail was perfectly attended to. The venue was amazing and the staff so very helpful and good at what they do. From the fantastic location (what a beautiful backdrop for a wedding -and walking distance to the every popular San Juan Capistrano Mission for…
Dreams do eventually come true and good things come to those who wait. Such was the case with this amazing bride and her very lucky groom. I was so very pleased to be a part of this wedding reception celebrating their marriage. Franny was totally down to earth and amazingly easy to work with and…
Last month my brother married his sweetheart and it was a joyous celebration for everyone involved. They are such a wonderful and fun couple – and their day came together so beautifully.

I’ve never photographed a wedding I have been so closely involved in. From helping to choose the colors (blue & coral to match the water & sunset), to making the food (my other favorite pastime) to hosting it at my house (which was tricky at best, but hey we made it work)….. I had a…
Memorial day weekend was a fabulous time for a wedding. But I never would have guessed it would be my coldest outdoor session of the year so far! It was so cold and windy down by the Huntington Beach Pier! But this adorable family smiled the gloom away and we were able to get some…
I first met Connie a week before her wedding, as she was coming from Hong Kong. I was still in my sling and hopefully she wasn’t too worried about that! We explored our venues planned the day together. We hit it off and I knew this would be a wonderfully lovely and laid back wedding….
Congratulations to one of my best friends, Rebecca – who married one of her best friends, Rob, yesterday. Although I have known Rebecca for less than a year, I feel as though we have been friends for a lifetime! We have so many things in common and I will be so sad to see her…
There is something so simple and so classic and so laid back about beach weddings! And this one was no exception…So casual and fun, with a tight and intimate group of family and friends to witness the union of two very warm and caring individuals. If only all beach weddings could be held just a…
