Cody and Savannah had a beautiful wedding at the Temecula Creek Inn in Temecula, California. The venue was absolutely beautiful! I first photographed the bride getting ready in her room and my talented second shooter Jordan Burke was getting some shots of the guys. We then headed down to the ceremony location and it was jaw dropping. Massive trees hung over a beautiful outdoor setting and I couldn’t help but take a bazillion photographs of the evening. Here are some of my favorites:

Chelsea and Evan {Married}

I first photographed Chelsea and Evan at Disneyland for their engagement session and It was a blast so I was especially excited to photograph their wedding a couple weeks ago. The venue they chose, Red Barn Farm in Valley Center, California, was absolutely stunning! The rustic chic style fit in well with my photography vision for the day and I am beyond happy with how everything turned out. We had an amazing portrait session as the sun set with the classic golden California light illuminating a beautiful field. After an amazing dinner in one of the barns, everyone danced the night away outside. Here are some ( actually a ton) of my favorites from this wedding:

I had so much fun filming Brett and Taylor’s wedding a couple months ago. It was a warm winter day at a beautiful venue and Jordan Burke and I got some great footage. Check out the film below:

I met up with Cody and Savannah in San Marcos, California and we rode together to an amazing location for photography just outside of the San Diego Zoo Safari Park. We ran through fields and orange groves and got some beautiful afternoon light and one amazing sunset. Here are some of my favorites:

I had the privileged of capturing Spencer and Rachel’s wedding day a few weeks ago and putting together a film for them. Here is the highlight reel of their beautiful backyard wedding:

Chelsea and Evan {Engaged}

I’ve known Chelsea for several years and was super excited to find out she was engaged and wanted me to photograph her wedding! We had been going over ideas for a while and we eventually settled on an evening at Disneyland for their engagement photography. We got to the park and cruised around California Adventure and then went over to Disneyland and did a few rides and some photos in between. It was so much fun mixing it up and doing something different than I normally photography. Here are a few samples:

Jake and Bre {Married}

Jake and Breanna had a simple and beautiful wedding a few weeks ago here in San Clemente, California. I photographed the girls getting ready as my second shooter Jordan Burke was with the guys. We did an awesome portrait session at a nearby park that overlooks the ocean and got some nice evening light before heading off to Laguna Woods for the reception. Here are my favorite images and some from Jordan Burke Photography as well:

Ashley and Nathan {Engaged}

I just bought myself a new Canon 5d Mark III and was really excited to break it in last weekend for my first engagement session of the year. I met Ashley and Nathan at the Montage in Laguna Beach, the location that they got engaged at last summer. They were so fun and easy to work with and I hardly had to tell them what to do as their love was so easy to capture. The weather was also incredible! It had been freezing the week before but a mid-winter heat wave had hit just at the right time. We ran around the beach for a while and they even climbed Treasure Island. After the stunning winter sunset, we headed downtown and photographed on the streets of Laguna. Here are some of my favorites from this session:

Corey and Drew {Married}

Corey and Drew’s wedding was amazing! They chose the Dorothy Chandler Pavilion in downtown LA as their reception venue and the area provided some amazing backdrops for our portraits. The couple had so much energy and were so easy to work with as we ran around and across the busy streets. Liz Carillo (www.EveningGlam.com) did an amazing job on Drew’s makeup and she looked stunning all day long. Here are some of my favorites:

Nate and Jasmine {Married}

I helped second shoot this breathtaking wedding with Austin Chesser a little while back and wanted to post some of my favorites. Nate and Jasmine are an amazing couple and they had their wedding at the Barona Casino in San Diego. At first I wasn’t sure what to expect when I found out the wedding was at a casino but my initial assumptions were definitely wrong! The ceremony took place on a gorgeous golf course and the weather was my absolute favorite to shoot in. Wispy white cirrus clouds drifted overhead and, as the sun set, exploded into vibrant hues of gold and red. It was one of the most amazing portrait sessions I’ve photographed! Since I was second shooting I was only focusing on certain shots so this post doesn’t portray a complete wedding, just mostly the bride and portraits:
