Michelle and Ron had an intimate beach wedding in Hamilton Cove on Catalina Island. Cathy from An Event Two Be always does such a great job with the planning and the details of the day.

Jasmine and Luis met while both serving in the military. Jasmine wanted to ask Luis to marry her and got the Robbins Bros team in on the proposal. They provided the messages truck and two beautiful rings. Best wishes!!

I’m thrilled to share the wedding images of Victoria and Bob. Congratulations to you both and thank you so much for sharing your day with me.

The reception was at Firefly which is just a few blocks from my home studio here in South Pasadena. I have to admit it was really nice to be photographing a wedding so close to home!

The other day I was walking down to 750ml (which is a nearby hip new restaurant) I spotted a huge tree in front of the South Pasadena Library. As you can see from these images, I just had to work it into Victoria and Bob’s wedding day photos!

I had such a fun day with Victoria & Bob shooting their engagement session. They were great sports and super models. I love spending time with my couples before the wedding taking a few photos and having some fun. Here are a few of my favorites.

Kim and Marcus were married in a a back yard ceremony under two banana palm trees in Hollywood, California surrounded by friends and family. All of their friends and family helped out to make the day extra special. Kim made her own dresses (she had 2) as well as the bridesmaid dresses. www.fleurstudio.com Kim and her mom also made all of the table linens, place cards, and pink puffy flowers. Marcus’ sister was the officiant and Marcus made the cake. A great time was had by all!
