I’m so happy for Julie and Felix. They are just an awesome duo with a great zest for life and we were so honored to document their big day. They had a traditional Vietnamese wedding tea ceremony at both of their families’ homes and then we were off to the Huntington Beach Hyatt for their American ceremony and reception. It was such a great day filled with love and emotion. I actually made my longest slideshow ever. I just couldn’t make any cuts…so many great moments! Thanks to our awesome team of vendors…some of my favorite peeps in the industry! It’s always so great to work with a team where we all make each other’s jobs easier. I would recommend any of the vendors below in a heartbeat. Congrats Julie and Felix! Here are some favorites from this great wedding.

It was such a treat to travel up to Napa Valley for Sarah and Russell’s wedding. It’s such a beautiful part of the country and The Meadowood Resort was a perfect backdrop for their wedding. A gorgeous, gorgeous property! Sarah and Russell’s wedding had a croquet reception and it was too much fun to watch. Everyone was dressed in their croquet whites and it was such a cool scene. They served an wonderful brunch with a deeee-licious eggs benedict. So good! Congrats to Sarah and Russell and thank you for letting us document your truly unique and wonderful wedding! Here are some highlights:

Mika and Jimmy came in from The Netherlands to share their special day with their friends and family. They are two of the nicest people ever! And it was such a pleasure to document their wedding for them. Tey and I had so much fun getting around Hotel Del Coronado down in San Diego. Such a beautiful property and portraits were so much fun as founds some really great spots! Thanks to our great and talented friend Lisa Tewasart for coordinating the event. It was just a great day! Congrats to Mika and Jimmy! Here are a few highlights:

Noelle and Fred’s wedding was a magnificent event at the Langham Huntington in Pasadena. From gorgeous details to the many emotional moments. I couldn’t help but get caught up in the whole thing. Noelle and Fred both looked so great and the whole day was just perfect. We had an amazing team of vendors that made the whole day a breeze. Thanks to Carolyn Chen of The Special Day and her team of coordinators. They always deliver! The Mille Fiore created such amazing visuals with their florals. Just awesome to photograph! Congrats to Noelle and Fred!

The skies were blue and the sun was out! It was an amazing SoCal day for Patty and Jason’s wedding at the Newport Dunes Waterfront Resort down in Newport Beach. Their story is so sweet as they’ve known each other for so long and they totally remind us of ourselves when we got married. Patty and Jason were high school sweet hearts it was so awesome to see them tie the knot. We also loved seeing Julie & Danny and Kim & Justin!! Congrats to Patty and Jason…thanks for having us capture your day! Here are some highlights:
