This wedding was full of fabulous little hints of Disney!  With two beautiful flower girls & the best ring bearer ever! This was an amazing wedding!

I love this wedding at La Venta Inn in Palos Verdes Estates.  Jenna & Nick’s romantic wedding was beautiful!  I loved the all the white & pink garden roses everywhere!  Love the clean, relaxed & romatic vibe of the decor. Amazing wedding!!!!  Congratulations Jenna & Nick!

I can’t get enough of this wedding!

I’m so excited to blog Part 2 of Michele and Kurt’s wedding. The reception was amazing!!!!  I’ve done quite a few weddings at La Venta and the details for this reception were by far my favorite.  I’m so in love with the lanterns that were hanging from the rafters!  The long tables, candles and floral decor gave such a romantic mood and were perfect for a rainy day.  The rain did not keep this party down.  It was such a great day to cozy up with someone you love!  What a perfect feel for a wedding day :)  I loved watching Michele & Kurt dance the night away with friends & family!

These long tables looked amazing at La Venta!  Meghan did such a great job with the details while I was shooting the portraits!  She’s amazing!

I love the candles that Beth hung from the rafters! They were such a special touch!

I love how happy they look during the grand entrance!

Kaoru and Patrick had  a fabulous wedding at the La Venta Inn.  The details were amazing! From her bright blue high heels to the pink floral centerpieces, every detail had so much thought put into it.  It was simple, vintage and romantic.  The day was beautiful!!!  Kaoru looked stunning!

Thanks to Leslie for helping me shoot this wedding!

I had the pleasure of photographing Nahoko & Yoshiya’s wedding in March.  I just got done designing their album and I’d love to share some of my favorite spreads with you.  They were married that the beautiful La Venta Inn in Palos Verdes Estates.  Enjoy!

It was a beautiful Southern California morning when Nahoko and Yoshiya got married.  It was the perfect spring wedding.  The weather was amazing and the view of the ocean was stunning.  They had white tulips and pink roses….  such a great start to spring!

Love La Venta in the morning! Here’s a picture of Nahoko & I before the wedding :)

Nahoko and Yoshiya decided to have a first glance before the wedding.  I love the way Yoshiya is looking at Nahoko! So sweet!

These portraits are so full of life! I love how happy and giddy they were before the wedding!

Many of the women wore Kimono’s and one wore a traditional Korean dress.  They were so beautiful!

Is there anything better than this view?

I always love shooting at La Venta, but more than that I love working for Jen Rau. Of course I may be a little biased since she’s going to be my wedding photographer as well ;) La Venta is so beautiful from when you first walk in! I love waiting to see how wonderful the flowers are going to look in the fountain. The view for this wedding was particularly stunning! I was so jealous that Steve was sailing in that awesome water below.

I love wine!
