Rashanda and Mike are photographed at the Garden Room in Garden Grove on 4/26/13.

In another amazing collaboration with Jeff Lewis Wedding Photography, Rashanda and Mike received the all star photography treatment at their wedding at the Garden Room. Being one part of a duo really lets me spread my wings creatively and take more chances, as I don’t always have to think about getting the safe shot.

It was a beautiful ceremony complete with lots of radiant smiles, laughs, tears and of course a big kiss! Rashanda and Mike were naturals in front of the cameras, and there were lots of cameras. When you are having a great time at your wedding like they did, the photos definitely show it!

Barb and Wilder are photographed at La Venta Inn in Rancho Palos Verdes, CA on 4/13/13.

Gloomy skies couldn’t damper a perfect day for Barb and Wilder’s ocean view wedding at the beautiful and historic La Venta Inn. The intimate ceremony was held on the lawn and overlooked the coast from the Palos Verdes Peninsula all the way to Santa Monica. Barb, Wilder and their bridal party were lots of fun to photograph as they cracked jokes and shared laughs all day.

This quirky couple made their wedding uniquely their own with a wedding cupcake, red and blue mismatched shoes, and movie themes playing during the reception. Their love of marine life also played a big role in their wedding, as seen in fish bowl and shark themed centerpieces.

It was evident that they had a great time and enjoyed themselves, making it easy for me to document all the great moments of their special day.

Barb + Wilder Engagement: Inspiration Point, Palos Verdes

Barb and Wilder are photographed at the edge of Inspiration Point in Palos Verdes on 2/15/13.

Barb and Wilder are photographed at the edge of Inspiration Point in Palos Verdes on 2/15/13.

Over the summer, I hiked the trails around Portuguese Bend in Palos Verdes and I knew that the spectacular view at the cliff’s edge of Inspiration Point would make a perfect backdrop for an engagement shoot. It was a gorgeous sunny day along beautiful Southern California coastline, and Barb and Wilder were glowing as they were photographed taking a stroll around Abalone Cove.

We then made our way to Inspiration Point where they took a seat at the cliff’s edge. I worried that one foot slip would spell disaster! I also worried that the shot I wanted to get would only be possible from behind them and I would only get the backs of their heads, but Barb gave Wilder a hug and softly looked at the camera over his shoulder and I knew I had a good shot.

Emily and Terrance are photographed in an alley in Old Town Orange, CA on 2/9/13.

Finding funky and neat little nooks to take fresh engagement photos is always a priority for me. I definitely found some cool photo spots during Emily and Terrance’s engagement shoot at Plaza Square Park in Old Town Orange. There’s an abundance of brick walls and an awesome alley that provided an interesting backdrop that made for unique photos with a vintage feel.
Thanks to Facebook, I was able to stay in touch with Emily, who was my grade school classmate from kindergarten through seventh grade. It was great to see her and Terrance have a good time on their engagement shoot and I’m looking forward to documenting their big day!

Kiersten + Joe: Maui, HI

Kiersten and Joe kiss as the sun sets on Kihei Beach during their vow renewal ceremony in Maui, HI on 10/25/12.

Maui is one of the most gorgeous, picturesque places in the world and it was an absolute treat to be able to document Kiersten and Joe’s sunset vow renewal on the shore in Kihei. It was my first visit to Hawaii and I definitely took advantage and got in some much needed vacation time in paradise.

Kiersten planned a surprise vow renewal during their week long vacation and Joe was definitely surprised. Complete with the exchange of leis and the blowing of a conch shell, it was truly an intimate and casual island affair as the sun set on the Pacific.

Maui was a magical place and it felt like a dream snorkeling coral reefs, swimming with green sea turtles, exploring caves and lava tubes, and so much more. Me and my girlfriend had the time of our lives with good friends and I can’t wait to get back. What a way to end the 2012 wedding season!!

Crystalene + Garrett Wedding: Electra Cruises – Newport Beach

Crystalene and Garrett are photographed with their wedding party aboard the Electra Cruises yacht in Newport Beach, CA on 10/7/12.

Crystalene and Garrett’s wedding aboard the elegant and luxurious Electra Cruises yacht was so much fun to be a part of. Being that they are good friends of mine and I knew everyone on the boat, it made it even more exciting and easy to have a good time documenting their special day.

The theme of their wedding was vintage nautical and every detail was unique, from mini treasure chests to conch centerpieces. Starfish and sea shells were everywhere you looked. The cake by Cinderalla Cakes was exceptional as were the wonderful florals by My Fair Lady.

Not a bad way to spend a gorgeous day on the water in sunny So Cal!!

Krista + Jesse Wedding: Elkridge Furnace Inn – Elkridge, MD

Krista and Jesse are photographed at the Elkridge Furnace Inn in Elkridge, MD on 9/29/12.

Few things in my line of work are more gratifying to me than to document one of my best friend’s wedding. I’ve known my buddy Jesse since high school and when he flew me out to Maryland for his wedding, I knew I was in store for a weekend of comedy, alcohol, good food and great times.

The Elkridge Furnace Inn is a historic manor home dating back to the 1700′s and was a charming setting for Krista and Jesse’s intimate ceremony and reception. Nestled on the Patapsco River and surrounded by beautiful Linden, Holly and Magnolia trees, it could not have been a more gorgeous autumn day in Maryland.

Every detail came together to make their wedding unique, including a red and white lily floral theme, a beautiful backless wedding gown, his/hers bird salt and pepper shaker cake toppers, and lots and lots of laughs going around.
