Jessica & Ryan April 19, 2009

Darlington House, La Jolla, CA
This is one of my favorite locations in San Diego. First it's an
historical location. The house contains numerous antiques and original
wallpaper- which I love. The garden grounds where the reception was held is just so pretty.
I just can't say enough about how much I enjoyed being there--- and to top it off the bride and groom are the cutest couple and allowed me take their photos all over the place.
I figured they chose this location for a reason as well, and then had a
great list of places on the property to shoot at. I just want to note that the guys wanted to do a "Captan Morgan" pose in the street :) And some how we joked about the bridesmaid jumping in the
bathtub and they did it!!!! Such a good time!!!!

Josh & Lillian April 18, 2009

Estancia La Jolla, La Jolla, CA
Josh & Lillian had a unique wedding, at the Estanicia- with it's beautiful Spanish style. Afterwards the wedding moved to Point Loma to an intimate dinner at a
great restaurant, the Roseville. The ceremony was beautiful and
offered great places for photos. The reception was an intimate setting
in a small quaint restaurant with their family and friends. It was a nice change to have the reception in such a setting that allowed the bride & groom and their guests to have this venue all to themselves. I truly enjoyed being apart of this great day!

Amy & Logan April 17th, 2009

La Jolla Women's Club, La Jolla, CA
Amy and Logan got married at the La Jolla Women's Club- which I loved
shooting at! I love the colors inside the building and the gardens on
the outside. Another bonus was that we could walk to the Museum of Art
& a few other spots to take the portraits. I love that it was a small
intimate wedding filled with their family and closest friends. Oh-
and one of the photos I included is of Amy bursting with laughter! She
was beaming all day!!!!





Amanda & Travis April 5, 2009

Rancho Palo Verde Lake, Alpine, CA
It was fun to shoot this wedding! Amanda & Travis were so silly and happily in love with each other -- and EXCITED. I could see Amanda's excitement through her emails!! That's one of the elements I love about shooting weddings is not only the logistics of the wedding but the difference in relationships that I sometimes form before the big day.
I really looked forward to shooting their wedding and see it all come together. It was at a location that I had never been to, and a beautiful one at that. I remember a nice breeze off the lake that kept us cool all day. I loved their colors and the energy between not only Amanda & Travis but also with their friends and family. I tried my best to capture their emotions and go un-noticed among the guests. I think I accomplished just that!
