Camila & Chris :: 9-4-16 :: Wedding in Hawthorne

This day was so unbelievably beautiful! Camila and Chris got married on a warm sunny day at the gorgeous Ayres Hotel in Hawthorne and they really meshed their nature/bohemian/Tuscan theme easily with this gorgeous location! Their colors were purple green, and ivory and they were elegantly dispersed throughout the decor and attire of the day. Our day began with some detail and getting ready shots. I had the distinct pleasure of working with Camila to design and create the flower crowns that she and her flower girl wore, her bouquet and Chris' boutonniere and it was so exciting to finally see them on the big day! After everyone was dressed, Camila and Chris snuck over to a quiet place for a sweet first look, we took some portraits around the property.  It was such a sweet moment :) Bridal party portraits followed (including a fun idea they had to take one goofy shot of each party member!)  and then it was time for the ceremony! After a sweet ceremony including a sand ceremony and skipping exit, family photos went quickly and the newlyweds joined their cocktail hour. Next it was time for them to be announced at their reception as the newly minted Mr. and Mrs. Biezad! The reception decor featured flowers and a succulent adorned ombre cake! Upon entering their reception, the couple had dinner and toasts followed by their first dance and dances with parents. After the cake cutting we finished off our photos with an end of the night shot up on the balcony! This was such a splendid day celebrating such a beautiful and loving couple!

Cherie & Max :: 4/9/2022 :: Wedding in Los Angeles

Another postponed wedding couple that finally got to have their day! YAYYYYYY! This was the most wonderful pink wedding of my dreams and every detail was off the charts!  Their venue, Ruby Street in Highland Park,  was a perfect setting to apply all their incredible colorful touches and to have a fun, beautiful day! We started out with Cheri's details and getting ready at the venue. After Cherie had donned her incredible pink and sparkly Lazaro gown and Max was all suited up in his custom pink suit, these two shared their first look!  After some more photos around the venue and meeting up with their wedding party, it was finally time for their sweet and short ceremony. Can we talk about the DIY ribbon arch for a second? These two created it themselves and knocked it out of the park ! Their wonderful ceremony was filled with laughter, personal vows, exchange of rings, a hand fasting ceremony and finally these two were officially married (again! They officially tied the knot last ye

Sasha + Brenden :: 6/22/24 :: Wedding in Fullerton

Image
Our first to two weddings this year and boy oh boy was it a good one (despite the unseasonably warm heat!). Sasha and Brenden tied the knot at the stunning Muckenthalar Mansion , just a few miles from our home! Our day with the couple started with their first look, wedding party and couple's portraits. Before we knew it, it was ceremony time. After one of the quickest (but sweetest!) ceremonies ever, featuring a "first shot" of tequila, these two were officially official! After family photos and some detail shots it was time to party. During the reception their guests enjoyed dinner, speeches, cake cutting, parent dances and creating a custom work of abstract art for the couple to hang in their home! Once the dance floor was opened with a giant group shot, we stole the couple away for some magical golden hour photos at the end of our time with them. A beautiful end for a stunning day!

Maya & Satish :::: Engagement Session at Carbon Canyon Redwoods

Like many couples these days, these two cuties met online and the rest is history! After getting engaged earlier this year, they are planning a dual wedding incorporating traditional and western celebrations which will be so unique and beautiful! For their session they wanted to incorporate their pup Cybil (the shepherd mix) as she has been a huge part of their relationship from the very beginning and two different outfits reflecting their two celebrations. We had such a blast with these three on this dark and moody day at the Carbon Canyon Redwood grove and we are so excited for what lies ahead! Click any image to launch a larger viewing window. Enjoy!
