Sunny and Nik were married at the amazing Andaz Hotel in San Diego California. The day was simply beautiful from start to finish, a relaxing, low-stress wedding. Sunny and Nik were a fun couple and pleasure to work with. I'm glad that we had the opportunity record their wedding day.

The bridal party got ready in a spectacular suite that was adorned with decor that just added to the picturesque day. From the awe-inspiring lobby to the unfinished brick walls that screamed modern urban design, they picked the perfect location to get married. The ceremony itself was placed on top of the hotel looking out to the city beneath it.

At the end of the day, after all that took place, what really mattered was that Sunny and Nik were now married!

Lara and Talyor were married at the Temecula Creek Inn, in Temecula, California. The ceremony was set in a cozy little nook right next to an old creek followed by the reception on the lawn of an amazing old stone house.

This might be my favorite wedding to date because of how intimate and personal the wedding felt to even me, who before this day, didn't even know the couple. Lara had made sure all the details of the wedding were thoughtfully carried out and it all seemed perfectly at home with the location. There was even a two man band that played live cover music and even some original pieces. They were the best wedding band that I've ever heard and their style went hand in hand with the rest of the day. I'm so glad that I get to be a part of weddings like this, they always put a smile on my face.

Kim and Mark were married at the Sherwood Country Club in Thousand Oaks, California. The day was gorgeously beautiful, plenty of sun, and perfect weather.

Kim started getting ready in a huge suite at the Westlake Village Inn. It was two stories with a spiraling staircase and a baby grand piano in the foyer! With the shock of the amazing suite gone, I got right to work filming the girls getting ready. The guys showed up later and Kim and Mark did a reveal before the ceremony.  Read more...

Goli and Pejman were married at the beautiful Nixon Library in Yorba Linda, California. Goli and Pejman were one of the nicest couples that I've ever met. They were so friendly that by the end of the day it felt like I had know them for a long time. The ceremony was a traditional Persian wedding that was beautifully carried out. Both Goli and Pejman started the ceremony by dancing their way in. The dancing continued non-stop with all the guests from the grand entrance to the last dance. These people know how to celebrate a wedding.

This was the first wedding in which I shot with the Canon Rebel T2i. In fact the only lenses I had for it was the stock lens that came with it, 17-55mm f/3.5-5.6 and a 28mm f1.8 It was only used about half and half with my other Panasonic cameras.

Julia & Jorie got married on February 14th, Valentines Day at the Mission Inn in Riverside, CA. Their day was so romantic! The day began with getting ready in a very large, very beautiful, suite at the Mission Inn.

Julia and her girls got ready in one room, and Jorie and his guys got ready in another so they didn't see each other before the reveal. It was great for us to have them getting ready so close. After they finished getting ready they did a reveal and photoshoot in and around the Mission Inn, there are such beautiful places there.
Julia & Jorie's day was filled with family and love.

They are two of the sweetest people you will ever meet. It was such a pleasure to work with them!

Lena and Isaac were married on the Trump National Golf Course in Palos Verdes, California. The day started out at the breathe taking Terrenae Resort & Hotel. This hotel had absolutely beautiful views and was set on the rocky cliffs of the ocean. The mood was definitely the most relaxed of any bridal prep we've seen.

The ceremony was gorgeous, set on a point over looking the ocean. You couldn't have asked for a better view or better weather.

Lena and Isaac made our work day so enjoyable. Their hearts are filled with joy and love and it was definitely apparent the day of their wedding.

Sheleen and Jay were married in the small but quaint Nyeland Community Church in Oxnard, CA. This couple was full of family and God and they showed it every step of the way. Both Sheleen and Jay grew up in the Philippines, but didn't meet each other until they moved here to the United States.

I don't know when the last time I met a more humbled couple then Sheleen and Jay. Even though the day was about them, they made time to spend with their family. It is people like them that make me appreciate what we do here and personally make me love my wife more every day.

Wendy and Van were married on the Point Dume beach in Malibu, California. This day was a very fun event for us. Wendy and Van were both very pleasant and fun to be around.

When we met Wendy and Van for the first time, the really liked the older jazz feeling for their wedding. You can really see the old feel in all of Wendy's dresses.  Read more...
