Bridget and Michael celebrated their wedding at The Victorian in Santa Monica this past weekend. Their day was a beautiful blend of friends and family from around the globe, from the far reaches of of world including Hawaii and Germany. Bridget is a talented artist who works for Disney, and Michael is her German “prince charming.” I especially loved warm fall colors of maroon, silver, and purples. They had a special butterfly release during their ceremony that was just magical! Here’s some of my favorite images from their day!
I was introduced to Vanessa and Ephraim a week ago as they were wrapping up plans for their wedding. Since they were having a really hard time finding a photographer they loved… they were kinda stuck and running out of time. Lucky for me, their wedding planner Kat Keane passed along my info and they instantly felt we were a great fit! This past Thursday they were surrounded by their closest family as they said their vows and celebrated amongst the beautiful gardens. Here’s a few of my favorite pictures!
This past weekend I photographed a wedding with photographer Jason Redmond, that took place in Culver City at the Culver Events Center. The day started at the Huntley in Santa Monica. Here’s a handfull of my favorites!
Some samples of Jen and Rylan’s custom wedding album. You might recall their wedding pictures from last year at Seven Oaks Bakersfield. Their wedding album is 12×9″ with a grey silk cover to match her wedding dress. I just LOVE the texture and quality of these books!
I met Melissa and Jeff back in August as they started planning their wedding. Melissa would describe her vision as “modern, classic, a little bit of glam.” I photographed their engagement session at Paradise Cove in Malibu. It was exciting seeing Melissa’s vision come together this past weekend! They were surrounded by their families and their wedding included traditions from Melissa’s Spanish heritage including a lasso ceremony and mariachi band. Here’s some of my favorite pictures!
When I first saw Jeff, I almost didn’t recognize him! He was wearing a tux, sunglasses, and long hair slicked back.
Most of Melissa’s bridesmaids have been in her life since the age of 12, with the exception of her sister and a high school friend. How gorgeous are these ladies!
The sun was so bright, Jeff had to turn away from the sun until Melissa was close to the alter.
