Marge & Rod - Married

Ceremony - St. John the Baptist, Baldwin Park
Reception - The Radisson Suites, Covina
Event Planner - Platinum Design & Events, Sandy Salazar
Dress - Maggie Sottero

Just a couple days before heading out to Chicago, I had the pleasure of photographing Marge and Rod's wedding. They are such a great couple! Marge and Rod found me from a former bride, and now wedding coordinator, Sandy Salazar. The day was beautiful and Marge and Rod looked stunning. We were able to sneak away after the ceremony to the beautiful grounds of a mansion in Covina. I think the results came out great! Take a look below at a few of my favorites from their special day... Congratulations Marge and Rod, hope you had a wonderful honeymoon!

Out of the Office This Week

I am so excited to be packing up and heading to Chicago today. I am heading out east to attend a photography workshop put on by some amazing photographers. That being said, I will be out of the office until Friday. I will have email access, so I should be returning emails on a regular schedule, but phone contact will be limited. Have a great week and I look forward to sharing some of what I learned along on the way!

Sarah & Brian : The Wedding

Ceremony- Marina Village South Lawn
Reception- Marina Village Sunset Room
Dress- Maggie Sottero
DJ- Musically Yours DJ Tony Slater

Sarah and Brian were my 6-7-08 couple. Sarah used a various shades of blues and her bridesmaids wore some of the best dresses I've seen. They were a really nice compliment to her theme being blue with a dark blue paisley pattern. Sarah looked stunning that day... every last detail,down to her gold shoes, was perfect. When you take a look below you'll see the shot of Brian just as Sarah was coming down the aisle- he just lit up and was so eager, it was awesome! The day was beautiful and Sarah and Brian were such a great couple to spend the day with. Sarah requested some more "edgy" shots than the traditional romantics, so I posted a couple of those as well. A big congratulations to Sarah and Brian and we hope you are having a wonderful time in Jamaica!

Amanda & Kelsey ~ Engaged

About a week ago, Kristin and I met up with Amanda and Kelsey at the Stone Brewery in Escondido for their engagement shoot. If you haven't been there, we highly recommend it! The food and beverage selections are outstanding. The grounds at the Brewery have a beautiful garden setting and some nice options for a romantic/garden engagement shoot or portrait sitting. Amanda and Kelsey were such an easy couple to work with, we look forward to their 8/8/08 wedding this summer. Check out some teasers below...Enjoy!
