This sweet couple live in Mission Viejo and chose to get married in their own community. They got married at sunset right on the water at Lake Mission Viejo. It was absolutely beautiful. Their wedding party was legit as can be and each walked in to their own special song and received a special thank you from the bride and groom before they could reach their seat. Talk about a really thoughtful bride and groom! Enjoy!

Everyone loves a downtown Los Angeles wedding because each time you get unique shots, especially on a rainy day. The day started out fairly sunny, but still somewhat cold. By the time we did the first, the clouds really started to roll in. Once we got to the roof, it was sprinkling. We had bought clear umbrellas, so we were totally prepared, but shoot it got windy and started pouring a lot, so we had to move inside. Thankfully the Los Angeles Athletic Club is fairly cool and provided interesting backdrops indoor. Enjoy!

This couple, this venue, their love for each other - those are the things you want on a wedding day! These two are absolutely gorgeous and are so in love - they have a little girl to prove it! Their day featured lots of time with their family including a special family dance, lots of laughter, beer and good times! This wedding brought a mix of dark and moody + bright and colorful. Enjoy!!

When coordinator Jamie Wolfer and I started chatting about styled shoot ideas, we both kept coming back to Tarzan and Jane, jungle/safari theme. Jamie found some of the coolest pieces, the venue and I found my two awesome friends Abi and Dylan as well as their wedding attire. Saint Isabel Bridal lent us this gorgeous dress and Topman nailed the suit. Abi also rocked the Sam Edelman lace up stilettos. HNYPT LA was the perfect backdrop for this gorgeous shoot. Alicia Wheeler killed hair and makeup as well! Enjoy!
