Candace and her hubby, Dustin, are two of my biggest cheerleaders (and now friends), who’ve sent tons of work my way since I did their summer wedding at Spanish Hills Country Club. I’m so glad they picked this image! Be sure to check out the post. There are some great pics from some of my favorite photographers! Thanks Junebug!
2009 was an amazing year!! Like everyone’s year (and life in general), I had my ups & downs, but the constant bright spot was all of the TRULY incredible people, from all over the world, I had the privilege to meet & work with. While there are literally hundreds of images I wish I could post, I just finally finished my most difficult task so far this year- narrowing down my list of favorite wedding images from 2009. I can’t begin to tell you how hard it was to choose! I am just so grateful for all of my amazing clients! Thank you all for allowing me to be a part of telling your beautiful stories. Here’s a sneak peek (in no particular order) of some of my 2009 faves! May your 2010 be filled with life, love & lots of laughter!!
Kelly & Lowell’s Spanish Hills Country Club Wedding was definitely one for the memory books! It was a beautiful fairy tale wedding, complete with Kelly’s grand entrance via horse & carriage, and her “Marine in Shining Armour” awaiting his GORGEOUS bride! INCREDIBLE!! I’d been eagerly looking forward to this day since I connected with Kelly & Lowell a couple of months back for their Downtown Los Angeles Engagement Session. From the first time we met, I could tell these two really had a spark for each other, as well as a spark for life; Lowell serving his country as a Marine & Officer, and Kelly doing volunteer work in third world countries. These two are just all around great people! Both come from kind & generous families, and that made the day all the more special! Congratulations, Kelly & Lowell, and thanks for having me be a part of such a wonderful occasion! I’m so excited for our “Day After Session!”

Linsey + Craig had such a beautiful & sweet winter wedding at the Spanish Hills Country Club in Camarillo. Thanks to the year-round Southern California sunshine, their outdoor ceremony was just perfect! I was ecstatic when these two decided to see each other before the ceremony allowing us plenty of time (and light) to have some fun. These two are just so gorgeous together, and I CANNOT wait to see the beauty this union produces!…wink, wink.
