Matthew + Nichole: The Casino San Clemente Wedding
A SAN CLEMENTE WEDDING
UGH THESE FRIENDS OF MINE!! I’ve known Nichole forever and a day, but I met Matthew at Lexi and Rendon’s wedding when Nichole was a bridesmaid. They danced the night away and a year and a half later were married at The Casino in San Clemente. It was the most beautiful wedding including incredible florals by Chesca Makes Things and the best DJ ever (other than his roomie) DJ BMO. Thanks to my girl Valerie for second shooting this wedding with me! She killed it. I LOVE getting to work with my friends, so hit me up for that friendor list if you book me for your wedding!! You’ll get the best people who will make your day so fun and run smoothly!
Ranielle + Santi: Pasadena City Hall + Arlington Garden Engagement Session
A PASADENA ENGAGEMENT SESSION
When people just get you… it’s a freaking dream!! Santi + Ranielle gave me an In N Out gift card at the end of their engagement session and I was like wow.. you get me! I eat In N Out after a wedding day, even if I’m fed really well. It’s just tradition.
I had so much fun shooting with them! They’re so dang natural and just interact so seamlessly! It made my job so easy and so fun. They were down to try different things including running at the most random times plus they were laughing the whole time, which created some of the cutest moments!
