How exciting is it that Stacy & Brian were married over the same Palos Verdes cliffs where they sat some 10 years ago, talking and getting to know each other just as friends? And that despite having 10 years under their belt, they glance at each other with such sparkle and adoration, as if they’re seeing each other for the first time? And that we had the most perfect weather on their wedding day, a day that was filled with an overjoyed group of family and friends, and tons of thoughtful details (like tangerine escort cards, and a grilled cheese station!!)

I felt so honored to document their wedding day, and also to have the opportunity to work with a seriously fantastic team of vendors, including Ngoc of Skybox Event Productions, Linda of LV Floral Events, and the ever talented Kelly Zhang.

Be sure to check out more from this beautiful wedding in Ceremony Magazine!

It’s an exciting day! So happy to share that Stacy & Brian’s gorgeous wedding was featured in Ceremony Magazine! Ceremony releases an issue but once a year, so it’s a true honor to be included among the pretty pages of the 2013 issue!

So many sweet touches filled this day and so many wonderful vendors were involved – stay tuned for I will be sharing more loveliness soon!

This is one of those weddings {there are more than a few of them}, where I’m sitting there editing the images late in the evening, the computer monitor glowing brightly, with maybe a snack (aka THIRD DINNER) on my desk, and I find that suddenly, I’m misty-eyed. Because how crazy beautiful are these moments? The moment of joy as Christina sees her aunts walk in to congratulate her as she’s getting ready, or the excitement Mark has when he presents Christina with a wedding gift (a ukelele, and she gave him a surfboard!) Or the significance of a rose placed gently on a chair saved for Mark’s mother, who had passed away earlier that year.

Christina and Mark are both the kinds of people who will greet you with the warmest hugs, and laugh unabashedly, and constantly radiate love in every which-what direction, and the fact that they found each other & ended up together is something pretty wonderful. Their wedding day was a string of beautiful and joyous moments and it was such an honor to be there to capture them!
