Traveling has been a passion of mine since I got my first passport at 6 months old (no joke!) I sat on my moms lap and made gaga sounds at the photographer. I started traveling alone at age 6 to visit my Aunt in Missouri every Summer. I haven't stopped since. Where I go, my camera follows. I love experiencing new places and capturing each one in my own way.
Blair and Travis came from Texas to exchange vows at the gorgeous Estancia Hotel and Spa in La Jolla. I had not met these two until the night before the wedding. I loved how expressive Blair is and how sweetly Travis treats her. They are so kind and gentle with each other.
Jennifer Bueno of Beauty to Be was just applying the finishing touches when I got there.
You know the day is going to be fabulous when you start the wedding with a little Vera Wang:
Looking stunning!
Meanwhile, on the other side of the property, Travis was trying to stay cool in the heat!

The fantastic Reverend Powers performed the ceremony. I love this shot of Travis watching his bride walk down the aisle
My lovely assistant Aaron took this shot. Can you spot me?
Every wedding, one of my favorite shots is the bride and groom walking back down the aisle! Brides, take a lesson from Blair! Love her expressions!
I told them to give me attitude – I think they nailed it!
Some alone time

Love me some unique bling!
Funny moment after the cake cutting…Travis smeared cake on Blair’s nose!
Don’t worry, he helped get it off too!

The rockin’ band Atomic Groove kept the dance floor packed! Highlight? When they busted out Baby Got Back!
