Maravilla Gardens Wedding : Kevin and Kristy

admin — Fri, 18 May 2012 15:33:27 +0000

You may remember Kristy and Kevin from their ADORABLE tandem bike engagement session. Well here are some photos from their ADORABLE wedding at Maravilla Gardens. From the yellow and grey wedding details, to the little love bird favors that Kristy hand painted (yes, she seriously hand painted every single one) every thing came together so beautifully. Kevin totally rocked some yellow and grey argyle socks…LOVE…the guys wore some awesome Volcom suits and the bridesmaids wore some fabulous J.Crew dresses! And more important than the details is the love that Kristy and Kevin (and her son Adam) share. You can see from their first glance photos how excited and happy they were on their big day.

Camarillo Ranch Wedding : Shana and Justin

I have to say….I think I am pretty lucky to have so many fabulous couples in front of my camera. Shana and Justin are ridiculously sweet, adorable and fun and their wedding was a direct reflection of that. From the yellow and gray color palette, to the guys in suspenders, to the bird cages and hints of vintage decor, with a fabulous celebration to cap things off, their Camarillo Ranch House wedding was….well fabulous!

Harold and Marissa : Pasadena Engagement Photos

admin — Sun, 26 Feb 2012 20:26:32 +0000

I think this session was quite possibly one of the longest and shortest engagement sessions I have every shot…LOL. You see, this one time there was a big police pursuit that cause the 210 to be shut down, which meant in order for us to get to Pasadena we had to take side streets to try and get back onto the freeway where it opened back up. Trouble was, it seemed like every other person in LA was doing the exact same thing!!! From the time we got in the car to head to the shoot to the time we got back home it was a total of 7 hours…which is totally not a huge deal because I adore Harold and Marissa and enjoyed chatting with them and getting to know them both better. The tricky part was that we litterally had maybe 25 minutes to shoot before the sun was completely gone for the day. But, they rocked it out and we totally made it happen! Today is their wedding day and I cannot wait to photograph their big day!!

HAPPY WEDDING DAY YOU TWO!!!!

Spanish Hills Wedding : Matt and Jen

admin — Sun, 19 Feb 2012 17:35:07 +0000

Jennifer and Matt….they are the kind of people you meet and really want to be friends with. They are sweet, kind, funny and tons of fun! There were married last year at Spanish Hills Country Club in Camarillo. Jennifer’s mom is obviously super talented and crafty as she made all of the awesome burlap decor for the wedding. From the ring bearers pillow (which also included pieces of lace from her wedding dress), the flowers on the flower girls dresses, the table numbers, signs around the wedding. Regardless of all the great details of the wedding, Jennifer and Matts love took center stage! I am so very fortunate to witness so many amazing relationships on one of the happiest days of a couples life together. These two are perfect example of a couple that compliments one another so amazingly well and as soon as you bring them together, they absolutely light up.

Jen and Matt, I adore you two and cannot wait for what the future holds for you. XOXO

I told you they are super fun right?? Well, below is a perfect example! Jen and Matt chose to see one another before their ceremony. So just after the first glance at the hotel we made a quick stop in the hotel room for some super fun bed jumping photos, because apparently this is a normal event in their house, Jen jumps on the bed and Matt is reading magazines about Grilling. Yes, fully dressed, makeup and ready to go…Jen jumped on the bed and had a blast…LOVE!

Jen, you are STUNNING!!

LOVE everything about this…such a great example of how fabulous these two are.
