I was so excited when Bethel referred this awesome couple to me. It had been years since I shot a wedding at Grand Tradition plus a Tuesday wedding on Earth Day?! Yes please! Add in Rose’s beautiful tattoos and you have a swoon-worthy wedding. Even their little one Kaden was a dancing machine (Kaden is now a big brother!). So many great details including an emotional first look and rad surprise choreographed first dance!  Wedding Location: Grand Tradition, Fallbrook, CA

Stephanie and Roland were so much fun to photograph. They fully trusted me and were up for anything! Their ceremony was right at sunset so I had to whisk them off to the beach to catch the very last light of the day. And their sword arch – always a fun time to photograph! Dawn with Embellishment killed it for decor and florals! And their cake from Flour Power is in the running for my favorite cake design ever! Wedding Location: Paradise Point Resort

Zach + Nelly had 3 weddings! Yes 3. They were legally married at the Courthouse first, then had a huge traditional wedding in China and finally a smaller family centered affair in front of Zach’s friends and family. And they also announced they are expecting at this wedding! How fun! It was insanely hot at Stone Brewery that day. Nelly was a total trooper being newly pregnant and dealing with the heat! This was also my first wedding at Stone and it was awesome. I hope to work here more often and with Jen from Day of Love!

Who doesn’t love a groom in a kilt?! Michelle + Ian live in Scotland and were married at Carmel Mountain Ranch Country Club on a beautiful October day! They wanted an indoor ceremony, which ended up being absolutely beautiful inside the club. And Michelle was so low-key on her wedding day, she even did her own makeup! The reception included teaching the guests a traditional Ceilidh which was awesome to photograph! Shout out to DJ Pat from Sound Prodigy for a rocking party!
