I don’t know how I get so lucky, but seriously everything about this wedding & this couple was like a dream! Sue & David are laidback, hilarious, kind-hearted and oh so creative (you might remember their homemade fort engagement session!) and the types of people you just want to be friends with immediately. Their wedding was just as awesome as they are – bursting with prettiness & handmade details, coupled with a heavy dose of fun. When I imagine the types of weddings I most love to shoot and the types of people I most like to rendezvous with this, Sue & David and this amazing wedding are exactly what come to mind :)

Hope you enjoy this glimpse into their day!

It was a perfect sunny summer day in Palos Verdes. On a cliff overlooking the sea, Christine & Michael exchanged wedding vows of love and hope, of always knowing the other was out there for them, of the joy of finally finding one another. The day had a wonderful relaxed feel and so perfectly reflected their personalities – with fragrant bouquets of lavender scattered throughout and lots of odes to the Beatles. It was also the first wedding I photographed with an all-vegan menu, which included pasta, tacos and burgers, all of which looked delicious!

A huge thank you to my dear friend Uyen of Sassy Girl Weddings for introducing me to this amazing couple and perfectly coordinating this amazing day!

I’m totally smitten by Rosie & Daniel’s story: they met years ago when she first came to him for a tattoo, and he’s been the tattoo artist for every tattoo she’s gotten since :) I never tire of photographing sweet simple ceremonies at the Beverly Hills Courthouse – this one included their closest family members, who surprised them with a confetti shower upon their exit (never get tired of these either!) Crossing my fingers that 2014 bring more fun courthouse weddings my way!
