Lara & Teo "Teaser": Getting hitched this weekend!

Lara & Teo just arrived into town this week to get things completely perfect for their big day this coming Sunday! They made some time to come meet me in Laguna to start warming up to the camera! We had so much fun exploring a new location...I always take my bride's on an adventure! ;)

These two are very creative, I have been looking forward to their wedding for quite some time, I know it has inspired me already just hearing about the unique ideas they have come up with!

Keep a look out for posts soon, I promise I'll be better on blogging!!! :)

Sharon & Vincent: Wedding Day at Turnip Rose!

oh grams...adorable.

Love love love the front gate, architecture & interior of Turnip Rose, so much to work with...

I think Vincent had to prove he was man enough to handle Sharon, so he did a few push-ups with her on his back ;)

I thought it was super cute when I caught Vince playing with his new band towards the end of the night :)

A special thanks to April Smith, Efren & Paul for assisting me and making these images possible!

There's a few more images I'd love to share with you, View SLIDESHOW!

Ree & Erica: Wedding Day!

The Bower's Museum is definitely a hidden gem. So far, this has been one of my favorite venues! I absolutely love shooting weddings at Galleries or Museums. They are always changing and so unique...Erica & Ree were willing to see eachother before to save plenty of time for family and bridal party shots after the ceremony. This always makes the day run much smoother, skip tradition - can't everyone do this??? :)


The first time I've ever had the groom take a picture of his own wedding, while it's happening!
Silly Ree :)



And "The kiss" is ended with a dip!



The girls insisted on picking up Ree, it took a few tries! This series cracks me up!

oh my goodness, how gorgeous is Erica!?

...and the handsome fella...

Erica's sister, the dance DIVA! BEST dancer i've ever seen, not kidding, you ROCK girl!



Congratulations lovebirds!!!
