AN AVENUE OF THE ARTS WEDDING
Angie and George had a stunning fall wedding at The Avenue Of The Arts in Costa Mesa, California. I actually photographed Angie’s cousin's wedding a few years ago and was so excited when she chose me to photograph her special day as well! I had an absolute blast photographing these two on their wedding day!
Kara Nixon Weddings
I met with Angie at The Gypsy Den in Santa Ana to discuss all the details since we didn’t do any engagement photos together. I love meeting with clients ahead of time whether we are grabbing some coffee or just chatting while we get your engagement photos done. It’s so important we get to know each other before the wedding day since I'm one of the people who you will be spending the most time with on your wedding day. It’s also important I know the vibes my clients want for their wedding photos. They let me know they aren’t fans of traditional posing. They asked for lots of candid photos or at least candid vibes with a little bit of posing guidance! That’s exactly what they got!
Angie + George
When I met Angie and George, they shared a little bit of how they met, which is always so fun to learn about my couples I get to photograph. Angie told me, “We met at church through our parents “slyly” making sure we met. I saw him once and knew that he was going to be my hubby one day. We went on our first date and the rest is history! He makes me a better person, I keep him sane. We’re a pretty good team.”
A Traditional Church Ceremony
After Angie, George and their bridal parties got ready at Avenue Of The Arts, we headed over to the ceremony location at St. Luke's Antiochian Orthodox Church in Garden Grove. This church was absolutely beautiful and filled with detail. We took some group photos out on the lawn in front of the church before heading back to Costa Mesa for the ceremony.
Love From The Couple
“I love your vibe and that you seem very fun and easy to work with! I also love that you don’t try to fit every couple into a box, you seem very flexible and willing to work with anyone! Definitely love the chill vibes.”
