Erin & Chris: Married at the Miramonte Resort and Spa

I rang in the New Year celebrating the love between Erin and Chris. I couldn't have asked for a better start to what has already been an amazing year.

These two were so much fun. Erin was so relaxed getting ready in her chili pepper pjs. Chris played a round of croquet. Their first look was such an emotional one it made me tear.They pledged their vows in the evening under a fairytale-like oak tree in a ring of red roses, danced all night long with loved ones and kissed as husband and wife on the very first second of the year 2012.

Thanks to Michael Fletcher for having me along! I have actually been a fan of his work for a few years now, so it was really cool to shoot alongside him. You can see his post here.

HAPPY NEW YEAR!!!

Jennifer & Samson: Married at the San Diego LDS Mormon Temple

From the gorgeous San Diego Mormon temple to Polynesian dancing, the wedding of Jennifer and Samson is one I will never forget. 400+ family and friends were there to celebrate this long awaited union between these 2 lovebirds and join in the food, fun and festivities.

Thanks to Jovanni Photography for having me along to assist! See their blog here. Congrats to Jennifer and Samson!

Gilda & Pete: Married at the Rancho Bernardo Inn

Here's another gorgeous San Diego wedding I got to second shoot alongside the talented Aimee Westcott of Captured by Aimee. Gilda & Pete's special day was drenched in warm sunlight. They pledged their vows as the sun set basking them in a golden light. At the reception Chinese lion dancers drove away evil spirits and brought good luck to the happy couple and some of the most touching Best Man and Maid of Honor speeches I have ever heard were spoken.
