{Let's do a photoshoot!}

I am so excited to share with you a photoshoot I did with my bride and groom! 
They had so much fun at their wedding but were bummed because they didn't get more photos on all the eye candy. Chello! Let's do a photoshoot! 
As you all know photography is a passion of mine, so I grabbed a camera, picked up the bride & groom and headed down coast highway. The best shoots are when you find the random spots to shoot at and your adrenaline kicks in when your not really sure if your tress passing or not {wink! wink!}.
As we headed down coast highway from Newport Beach to Laguna Beach, we came up the hill and there it was, a field, a cliff, and the ocean! JACKPOT!
As we hopped out of the truck, camera in one hand, props in the other, cars whizzing by us and the groom carrying the settee, we quickly setup up and went for it.
Not being able to imagine how the day would go or if we were going to get good shots, we managed to exceed all of our expectations when we were able to spend an hour and half shooting, getting every last shot needed. Just then the cop showed up {in our minds, it's about time} "you can't be here, private property!" "oh sorry sir, we are leaving right now!" LOL!
{It's really all about the bride, no offense groom! LOL!}
After our little adventure and run in with the law, we all decided to keep the party going. 
We headed straight to the house in Laguna where the bride & groom got married and then down to beach. 
However, we had to make a quick stop in downtown Laguna!

..................... house
....................beach
Needless to say, they had one fun, exciting, eventful day, reliving the wedding of their dreams!

{Nick & Shala}

I recently styled a wedding in Laguna Beach for an amazing couple! The bride, Shala came to me wanting something unique, whimsical, and a touch of romance. Of course, I was already picturing chandeliers hanging from the windows, old vintage lamp shade lights hanging from the entrance and vintage seating around the dance floor.
I had so much fun styling this wedding and working with other talented people!
I have never seen someone more passionate about their job like Paul Kerby of {SSPG}. He filmed from the very first curl, down to the last song of the night. He goes above and beyond what is asked of him, each bride gets to have a video that is catered to the couples style, personality, making it unique and one of kind,  something you will not be embarrassed to show off 10 years from now. You only get the best with him, which is why, I must share with you the teaser video he sent me. 
I am on pins and needles to see the finish product!
