Asia and Byron’s ‘New Orleans meets historic LA’ Wedding

Jeannie Ward of  The Wedding Jeannie was how Asia and Byron found me.  I remember when she originally had met with them and the excitement in her voice as she told me the theme they had in [...]

Naomi & Ryan- A Strawberry Farms Wedding

What do I love about Naomi and Ryan… hmmm… where do I begin?!?  First off, I love that Naomi came to me with the recently learned knowledge that she wanted to splurge and go overboard with her photography budget.  Ha!  Seriously though, she came to the conclusion that it’s all you have to keep, that [...]

Rebecca and Brady- Grand Traditions, Fallbrook

Libby and Chris– Talega Golf Club

What a beautiful day… (sigh)
It’s not common enough that we get a buttermilk sky for a wedding day, but leave it to Libby and her gracious Texas family to have a Southern sky emerge as if just for them.  There was a lot of detail to this day with 10 bridesmaids and 10 groomsmen, 2 [...]

KEVIN & MOLLY- Nixon Library

When I first met with Molly and Kevin and they began to describe their ideas, decor, the vibe they want for their day I was blown away.  How often do you see a charcoal wedding dress?  Or black roses?  Their theme was so unique I knew it was something I could really sink my teeth [...]
