Kelsey and I first met while working at In N Out, so I was beyond thrilled when she asked if I would take photos of her and Matt. We met at the Laguna Niguel Regional Park and captured their true personalities. They're so fun to be around and I hope you can tell by the photos.

The Millers -- Oh what a joy it was to be a part of their special day! Somehow Jessica and I became friends on Facebook, probably due to all of our mutual friends and the fact that she grew up next door to one of my closest friends. Regardless, she contacted me about photographing her wedding and I was beyond thrilled to accept simply because she's gorgeous, but also because I loved what I saw on her Facebook profile. I knew instantly we would be a good fit.

They were married right up the hill from the house she grew up in. Literally up the hill! I mean talk about an amazing location! Who would have thought it would be right here in Orange County, California? We stepped right into the woods and it was magical. After the ceremony, we headed to the community clubhouse for the reception. Their wedding was a true DIY wedding. I'm so glad I could be a part of it.

Also shout-out to Chip Kimmich, the other photographer (Who knows who was first or second ha!)

I absolutely love they took communion together -- one of my favorite moments from the day.

I love this final image especially because it's so blurry. You can just tell they are beyond stoked to be married and to be celebrated -- these are the true real, raw moments.

The Barton wedding is officially hitting the blog & I'm stoked about it. This was the very first wedding I shot back in 2012! So wild!

Well, Chris and I first met at In N Out when he was my manager. He was favorite manager back then, so I was beyond excited when he asked me (and my friend Nico Marino) to photograph his wedding. Nico covered the ladies since he knew Betty better than I did and I covered Chris and the guys. Thankfully it was a small backyard wedding, so a great first wedding and I was able to work on it with a good friend of mine. 

We had a blast walking down the San Clemente pier taking photos after the ceremony, which you can see above -- Don't they look great? I'd say I did a pretty solid job on this for it being my first wedding!
