After photographing Lien & Jon's epic two day engagement session (which can be found here), I knew their wedding would be just as fun. Lien is extremely creative and thrifty, so she took the time to not only hand-make every single decoration, but she also designed her own wedding dress too! This stylish and fun DIY wedding took place at a lovely mountain center in Altadena, CA. With deer running around the grounds, a hot sun above our heads, and a wild wedding party, this wedding was a blast to attend and photograph. Check out a few images from throughout the day.

I photographed Natasha & Steve's engagement session (which can be seen here) a couple of month's ago and instantaneously fell in love with them. Natasha has an awesome style and loves photography, while Steve's from Ohio, and because I love photography & am from the Midwest as well, we naturally got along great. I couldn't have asked for a more gorgeous venue, as anything and everything was photogenic at all times of day. To top it off, the couple gave me full creative freedom to do what I want, so I was practically in heaven. Here's an epic preview of their gorgeous vintage wedding at the Green Gables Estate in San Marcos!

Check out a preview of Jen & Ben's lovely wedding at The Grand Tradition Estate -- this couple rocks! After photographing an epic engagement session with them at Elfin Forest (that can be found here), I was definitely looking forward to working with them again. More images to come! :)
Read moreJessica + Scott {Wedding} | Junipero Serra Museum | San Diego
I met Jessica & Scott late last year when booking their wedding and instantly clicked with them. After shooting their engagement photos at Old Poway Park (that can be found here), I knew their wedding would be a blast to photograph. Their ceremony was held at Presidio Park and their gorgeous reception at the Junipero Serra Museum. Check out their lovely wedding below and let me know what you think! :)
Read moreKristin + Chris {Wedding} | Carlsbad Seapointe Resort | San Diego
I absolutely loved this elegant wedding set in downtown Carlsbad at the Carlsbad Seapointe Resort. Kristin & Chris were naturals in front of the camera, so of course these photos came out stunning! The gorgeous outdoor reception took place at Pelican Point in Carlsbad, which was right across the street from the venue, so it gave us extra time for some awesome beach photos at sunset. Here are a few images from their spectacular wedding!
Read moreMarguerite + Nick {Wedding} | Balboa Park | San Diego
All I have to say is.. this wedding was a blast! We started off at The Lafayette Hotel in San Diego where the gorgeous bride, Marguerite, was getting ready. Immeadiately after, we headed down to the Spruce Street Suspension Bridge, where Marguerite & Nick decided to have their first look. After getting some fantastic portraits, we went to Balboa Park for their beautiful ceremony. We then headed to the San Diego Women's Club for their perfectly decorated reception. All I can say is, Marguerite & Nick were so so so fun to work with. Here are a selected handful of photos from their big day.
Read moreJenn + Ben {Engagement} | Elfin Forest | San Diego
Jenn & Ben.. What can I say about this couple!? They were frickin' awesome in front of the camera. And I'm only saying this because they haven't had professional photos taken since high school! They met five years ago at Ben's fire station and hit it off from day one. They both love the beach, but didn't want to have a cliche beach engagement session, so we decided that Elfin Forest was the best of both worlds.
Enjoy!
Heather + Bob {San Diego Wedding} | Rancho Bernardo Inn
I met Heather and Bob a few months ago when they were referred to me by a mutual photographer friend -- I knew they were going to be an awesome couple by our first meeting. Heather and bob are absolutely perfect for each other, and every single attendee at their lovely wedding knew it! Their ceremony ended right as the darkness started to settle, so we had to improvise for a few fun formal photos around the awesome venue. Enjoy!
