I feel such a connection to this family – Vanessa is the third sister in the family I’ve been lucky enough to photograph!   I couldn’t feel more honored to have been asked back so many times.

Marla Lackey with Cheers to You Events, was the planner for this event.  It was a beautiful early afternoon wedding held at the Hyatt Regency Huntington Beach Resort and Spa.

Kristen and Pete have lively personalities that really shined at their wedding.  They let loose and seemed to enjoy every moment of the day.  Their ceremony was held at Mission Basilica San Diego de Alcala and the reception was at the Museum of Contemporary Art in La Jolla.  What a fantastic contrast these two venues offered between the old {very old!} and the new.

Carlee and Doug’s wedding was held at The Catamaran Resort Hotel & Spa on a breezy, but beautiful day last October.  The hired wedding coordinator Jennifer Molloy, from Amore Events, DJ Mike Hogan, with Entertainment at Large and Magnolia Flower Shoppe for the florals.  As with so many of the weddings I get to shoot, this couple had a lot of fun and incorporated some great details.  My favorite element was the Gosser beer – perfectly representative of my clients – it’s their last name!
