Ken + Sandy Simple and Elegant Wedding {Lombardi House | Los Angeles, CA}

Much like the couple themselves, the ambience and laid back vibe of Lombardi House was the perfect place for them to celebrate their union. Ken and Sandy, who met while working at Sony, understand each other in a loving manner. This simple, yet elegant wedding was the perfect way to celebrate and show their appreciation to those guests who have supported them in their journey together.

Ernie + Winnie {Beverly Hills Courthouse Wedding + Greystone Mansion Photoshoot}

I love how this couple did things their own way. They had an intimate ceremony with family at the Beverly Hills Courthouse. Then, they went over to the GORGEOUS Greystone Mansion for photos. Finally, they had a family style reception at Craft LA Restaurant - all the locations being a few minutes drive from each other. Everyone was easy going and just enjoyed the time together.

During my time with them, I could tell that Ernie was the protector. He took care of his bride from the smallest details of helping her with her shoes without being asked to making sure all the details of the day was organized. I hope that this love continues to grow deep!

Brian + Shelby {A Casual Rustic Outdoor Wedding | Rancho Palos Verdes LA Photographer}

They met while training to become ministers in The Salvation Army’s College for Officer’s Training. A few days after graduating, the bride, Shelby and her groom, Brian tied the knot at the college campus. They both have a huge heart for others and serving their community. With their love rooted in their faith they built the foundation of their marriage on the sacrificial and unconditional love of God.

The bride wore a cute mini length dress, covered with lovely lace and all the men went without jackets - a wise move for a summer time wedding! There was fun and laughter, but the emotion that was most evident in the day was deep gratitude.

Randy + Stephanie {Ebell Long Beach Wedding}

Randy + Stephanie describe their wedding as an event with a modern bohemian tropical feel. "We found Ebell after looking into a sister venue in Los Angeles, and visited Ebell after learning that it had a larger guest capacity.  When we got there, we fell in love with the greenery, the Spanish tile, the flow, and all of the natural light.  There was a definite wow factor without being too formal, that made us feel like this was the place we should get married in."

Randy + Stephanie met online through Coffee Meets Bagel.  (The same app my husband and I used to find each other!).  On their second date, they went on a long hike to Muir Woods.  Her friend warned her that it might not be the best idea since we don't know if this guy is a serial killer or not.  :)  But Stephanie came back from that hike with her face hurting from smiling so much.  Far from a serial killer - this guy was more like an innocent teddy bear! 

This couple is laid back, smart and so personable.  They are loyal to their friends and family and there was nothing but love being poured out that day!
