Brigitte & Antonio

We had the pleasure of photographing Brigitte & Antonio's wedding at the Wayfarer's Chapel in Rancho Palos Verdes. This chapel was amazing! It was built on a cliff overlooking the ocean nestled in between a group of tall forest trees. The best part is, it is completely made of glass. Brigitte looked absolutely beautiful and her flower girl and ring bearer are adorable!

After the ceremony, we headed over to the DoubleTree in Long Beach/San Pedro for the reception. The reception site was stunning due to the talents of Mark & Jenelle from Sweet Flowers. Their floral arrangements and linens are always gorgeous. Everyone was very pleased with the photos we took of the wedding...they turned out great.

San Francisco

Last month, Jake and I were planning a relaxing trip to stay at THEHOtel at Mandalay Bay in Las Vegas. Then one of our kids decided that we should go on a road trip. So, Jake and I didn't hesitate to cancel our reservations in Vegas and start planning our trip to San Francisco. We had never been before, so we thought it would be great to take the kids and see everything the city had to offer. We woke up on a Saturday morning...way too early, and packed up the car and took off. Yes, people think we are crazy going on a road trip with 3 kids for 6 hours, but what can I say, our family loves road trips. We made it to 'Frisco at around noon, dropped our bags off at the hotel and headed out to explore the city. We instantly fell in love with this place. It is by far the most colorful and alive city we've been to. I've never been much of a city girl, but if I was, Frisco would be the first place I would pick to live. Jake, being the photographer that he is, took the opportunity to get these great pictures while we were on our trip.

Steven being the Star Wars freak he is, spotted this a mile away!

That's just a small portion of our trip...there will be more posts to come with our San Francisco pictures.

Ashley

Jake met Ashley back in January while doing a photoshoot for the Discovery Channel Show "Stunt Junkies." Ashley loved the lifestyle pics Jake took while they were filming at the Queen Mary in Long Beach so much that Jake & her decided to do a full photo shoot. So, last weekend we finally made it down to Laguna Beach and met with Ashley and a couple of her friends and had a great time walking around downtown Laguna. Ashley is a beautiful girl and was a pleasure to work with. Her pictures turned out great and everyone was very happy with the results.
