Anthony + Lauraine = Awesome

Sunday was a fun, yet busy day. It started out at the Balboa pier. I met up with Anthony and Lorraine to get to know them a little better and to shoot their e-session. I love early morning shoots on the beach. They're nice because there's hardly anyone there and it allows us to get lots done. Anthony flew in to see Lauraine this past weekend from NY where he attends dental school. Can you say long distance relationship? I think its awesome how much these two love each other. They just look so sweet together. Here are just a few of my favorites. I can't wait for the big day you guys! Feel free to comment on the ones you like.

It was so funny, because they both kept asking, "Do we look cheesy or goofy?" I told they looked like Rock Stars. Don't they? They look awesome!

Lauraine looks so darn adorable here!

The Ritz Carlton, Dana Point | Weddings

On Saturday we had the pleasure of photographing the wedding of Mara &  Ashley for their Florist,  Shower Me Flowers.   Yeah Thats right, their florist hired me to photograph their flowers for a new advertising campaign that she is embarking. 

Although the day was a scorcher,  the wedding went on without a hitch.  Thanks to the amazing coordination of Wendy Dahl of  The Dahl Wedding Company.  With layers of rose pedals lining the aisle and flower arrangements floating in the courtyard water fountain, it's no wonder that Ashley was amazed with the transformation of the ceremony and reception areas.  If you are interested in having your wedding at the Ritz Carlton, Dana Point feel free to contact Mr. Milko Rivera Email: milko.rivera@ritzcarlton.com.

Also a special shout out to some of the other venders at the wedding.  DJ Bill Franks of Elite Stage & Lighting. The ceremony music: Ina Veli email: ina_v19@hotmail.com.  These guys were awesome.  

Betina, thanks for having me there.  As always it was a blast hanging out with you.

Reception ~ The Sherman Library and Gardens

On Saturday had the privilege of photographing Patrick and Colleen's wedding with the ever so famous Greg Bumatay of Bumatay Studio. I always love to work with couples who are so in love with each other and so far this year this one takes the cake! These too were dying to see each other before their first look. Colleen was so excited she was shaking a bit. The smile upon their faces really set the tone for the day. Greg and I had a blast shooting their wedding. Take a look at some of Greg's images on his Bliggity Blog!  Thanks Greg!
