Brittany + James :: 8/7/2021 :: Wedding in Redondo Beach

What a beautiful day it was for Britt and James! The theme of the day centered around a romantic beach vibe with touches of blue, sea glass and white. Their venue, the Sonesta Hotel in Redondo Beach, was lush setting to apply all their romantic touches, planned, organized and pulled off flawlessly by the fabulous team at the hotel and their planner Fiona at Ludic Events. We started out with Britt's details and her getting ready in her suite. After Britt had donned her beautiful lace gown, and had some finishing touches by her bridesmaids, she and James shared a sweet first look. Next we met up with the fun bridal party for some portraits and then spent some time with Britt and James, wandering in and around the property. Their Ketubah signing followed, filled with some sweet and emotional moments as these two were celebrated by their closest family members. Their sweet ceremony was filled with fun moments, laughter, exchange of rings, and prayers, and after stomping on the glass, these two were officially married! After some more family portraits and socializing the bridal party made their grand entrance into the reception, Britt and James went right into their first dance, followed by the hora, speeches, dinner, toasts, and cake. After the bouquet toss, we stole the newlyweds away from the party for a romantic end of the night shot at the venue's entrance.  It was such a marveous day for such a wonderful couple, and we wish them many years of joy and happiness!

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!

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 mar...

Yasmin & Kaitlyn :::: Newlywed Session in Joshua Tree

Image
Back in November, I put out a model call in the SBSN Facebook group offering free sessions for LGBTQ+ couples to add more beautiful couples to our portfolio that reflect our beliefs as LGBTQ+ allies! Yasmin was one of the first to respond and we planned this amazing golden hour session in Joshua Tree with her and her beautiful wife Kaitlyn! These two were such troopers in the wind and the cold and we got some amazing photos in this amazing place. The love and energy between them is electric and that even came through with a few static shocks that Yasmin gave Kaitlyn when I gave them a cheek kiss prompt! So cute! We can't wait to see more of their adventures and follow their family grow throughout the years. Click any image to launch a larger viewing window. Enjoy!
