Lovin & Ian are married!!!

These images are from a stunning wedding ceremony & celebration of a truly loving couple. I just adore Lovin & Ian & had the best time helping them with their day at Los Verdes Golf Course in Palos Verdes. The whole day was just jam packed with emotion & personality. Thank you, to Harvard Photography, for capturing & sharing these images.

Beautiful Dessert Bar

Just a posting to showcase the incredible talents of three of Southern California's top-notch wedding professionals.
This fabulous dessert bar was created by Vanilla Bake Shop. Those yummy little goodies are pure heaven.
The eye who captured this belongs to Aileen Secord of Aileen Secord Photography.
The beautiful cherry blossoms and flowers decorating the table are from Century City Flower Market.
As you can imagine, this dessert bar was definitely a highlight of the evening. Yes, the rest of the wedding day was just as marvelous!

Ronnie & Ben!

Ronnie & Ben got married, in July, at the Hyatt in Long Beach. These two could be the sweetest people I have ever met. I had so much fun helping them plan their amazing wedding. A trained hula dancer, Ronnie requested plenty of Hawaiian music & lots of bright color. With over 200 guests & 3 dress changes, this day was full of fun, excitement, & Hawaiian glamour.

Whenever I finish reading an email from Mimi Nguyen, I think to myself "is she always so cool friendly & cool?!?".  She is the talent behind the lens in these great shots.

Commerce Flowers provided an amazing crew & even more amazing floral arrangements.

Ronnie's stunning hair & makeup was done by the gorgeous Theresa Huang.

Snider Photo and Design

I had to post this. Hey, I'm a proud momma. Any chance I get to show off my baby girl & husband, I take it.

We had a family photo session with Emily, Russell, & their little girl, Makayla at the Labrea Tar Pits & I am thrilled with the results. If you are searching for a dynamite wedding, e-session, maternity, or family photographer, definitely check out their blog & schedule an appointment with them.

I love my job! :-) :-) :-)

Geesh, this summer has certainly flown by!!! While archiving old emails & glancing at old email folders from past wedding celebrations, I found this.
It makes me smile. I am beyond flattered that at the end of the night, after a whirl wind of a day, they wanted to hop in the photobooth with me.

Thank you, Karen & Cheesy Photobooths for sending this to me!
Theresa Huang enhanced Kristina's already stunning beauty.

Ruby & James!

Ruby & James, their families, & guests experienced a magical wedding at the Los Angeles Arboretum. What a treasure it was working with this big-hearted couple & their fantastic vendors. The whole day consisted of laughter, joy, & lots of dancing. Loved every second of it! I expect many years of fun & excitement & love in their future! Scott A Nelson captured the day perfectly.

This may be my favorite photo. It gives me goosebumps. Just moments before the trek down the aisle.

Love the arch, provided by Rose Edmonds Event & Floral Couture.

Carcono DJ & Lighting provided the reception music & entertainment.

Katrina Saroyan shared her talents on the harp during their ceremony.

Dress My Party provided beautiuful chiavari chairs.
