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.
On April 12th, I got the chance to shoot with the fantabulous Kristi Klemens of KLK Photography. We had so much fun! The lovely bride and groom Chrystal and Ernie were married at the Clarke Estate in Santa Fe Springs. What a gorgeous old home, turned landmark! I loved it there!
Since I haven’t posted a lot lately, this will be a major post!
Ernie got a little emotional practicing his vows! I had tears too.
Shoes!
Couldn’t decide which I liked better 🙂 B&W straight out of the camera.
If you know me, you know I love birdcage veils! Meet the beautiful Chrystal!
Some lovely details in the form of an inspiration board!
About to become a Mrs.
Very emotional!
It’s official!
So GQ.
Ernie loves old cars…luckily there was a really old one at the park!
Here is the fabulous Clarke Estate I was raving about!
Hot!
One quiet moment.
I loved that everyone got a mini version of the cake!
I also loved the stars that the DJs displayed all over the place!

Love this wedding! I like the way you posed the groomsmen and I love the shot of them kissing thru the steering wheel. I’ve never seen shoes photographed the way you halfway shot them and I love the idea, great work on all.

Great stuff, Melissa! Awesome capture of the details and I adore the shot of the bride with the veil – beautiful!
