Jenny & Jeff were married last September, but I never got a chance to post their images! But I’m posting them now because we’ll be doing a “Post Wedding” session (aka Trash the Dress), next week! And I can’t wait. :) You’ll be seeing more “blast from the past” weddings because there were quite a few weddings I did last year that I really enjoyed but never got around to posting.
Upon seeing his bride for the first time :)
They got each other good!
A stolen moment
So, Nataly and Ryan were my big 07.07.07 couple! And boy was the day lucky! Aside from the fact that it was a HOT day, it ended up fantastic. And because of the heat, they were bold enough to do… well.. you’ll have to scroll to the bottom of the entry! BUT NOT YET! That would be cheating :) Let’s just say they did what many brides and grooms would look at my crazy for if I ever suggested it on their wedding day!
The wedding was held at Oceanview Room at the Point Loma Sub base. They actually wanted to do a post wedding shoot at their hotel, so after the reception, we headed over to Town and Country Club and finished up the day there! These two are fabulous people and so much fun to work with and have so much spirit and love! They are awesome and I hope they’re having fun in Mexico! :D
These guys were up for anything!
Someone printed out a photo the same day and put it at their table during the reception! Someone hiding a printer in their room? ;)
Nataly needed help eating a chocolate covered strawberry :)
Teaching the younger ones the classics :)
That was one tall groomsman!
We are clearly dorks!
Their ride
Yep! They jumped in the pool! It was actually quite funny when Ryan got in the pool – some lady walking by made a noise and ran away because it freaked her out – I’m assuming because they were still in wedding clothes! Thanks so much to the two of them for being such awesome sports and having so much fun with this! I’d love to do more post wedding sessions the day of – I’ve seen some at night which are beautiful, so if any of you want to do this, let me know! *hint*hint!* :D And no, you don’t necessarily have to get in a pool or anything like that ;)
P.S. Just a reminder! Trashing the dress does not literally mean you’re trashing your dress! It’s just a lot shorter than “Portrait session where you don’t need to worry about getting your dress dirty and/or wet!” :) Of course, you could always just call it a “Day After” session :)
Been busy being smack in the middle of wedding season! Whee! I’m going to be posting a BUNCH of “new” stuff soon, right now, here are some photos from Dominique & Andrew’s engagement session! They’re an adorable and sweet couple – we had so much fun running around the beach! Can’t wait till the wedding, you two!
Our good friend Josh was recently back in San Diego on leave (and his wife Nancy came back too!) and we got to meet their daughter Chloe for the first time! They’re actually the first of our good friends to have a baby! :) And of course, I had to do an impromptu baby session before he left to go back to the East Coast and then Iraq. :(
Her shirt says “daddy does my hair!”
The whole family :)
Look at that pout!
Welcome to the newly redesigned blog! One of the things that I wished about my old blog was that I could write regular text posts to update you guys about anything without loosing the idea of seeing images from recent events! So, I decided to go to a “normal” looking blog, so you can do just that! I’m currently still in the process of moving things over, like some images and comments, and over the next few days, you might see some things being added/tweaked, but otherwise, I hope you like the new look/style! Feel free to comment and let me know! <3
Also because I want to post an image, here are a few images where I’ve been playing with textures :)
Alan & Jennifer are one of the cutest couples!! Alan is so tender with Jen and so loving, it’s sweet. These two compliment each other so well, and I loved the vibe of their whole wedding. The wedding was held at the La Jolla Bridge Club, with coordination by the awesome Brian Bosch. :)
The first time they saw each other that day
The guests all had parasols
They had to stop and greet this little guy! :)
They were so easy to photograph – they stole moments like this all day!
The fabulous Emily who assisted me that day! :D
During the speeches
Perfect way to end :)
