julie & brian

Julie went to brooks institute with me so I was so honored when she decided to use me as their photographer. Their wedding was exquisite! The delicate details, flowers and special little touches that went into this event were unbelievable and the setting was so great to work with.

To give credit to those who had a hand in this event, here are the vendors:

Carla Pedersen Jacobsen - Special Occasions (coordinator)
Renae's Bouquet (florist) Chefs Touch (caterer) Decadence (cake)

photos by jose villa!

We were so lucky to have Jose Villa photograph our wedding a couple of weeks ago. I was able to get a quick sneak peek last night and the pictures are so awesome. I was thrilled to see how they came out. He posted a few on his blog and I'm including one of his pictures here on my blog. Thank you Jose! We're so pleased.

Dinice and Jeff were such an adorable couple to photograph. Their sweet attitudes and creative taste in color and design really made for some awesome photo ops. I love all of the orange and green everywhere. We had a little rain throughout the day but they had such a great outlook on it that there's no way a little sprinkle would spoil their big day.

It's so fun to get photos published! Maggie submitted her photo here to the Santa Barbara Magazine and we got the full page. Fun!

I had the pleasure of photographing this wedding at Firestone Vineyards last March. It was such a gorgeous day and a lavish event. Jonas was so fun, he kept making Maggie laugh by pinching her. I had a blast working with them and their wonderful coordinator, Jennifer Curti.

costa rica

Ben and I were so ecstatic to have the opportunity to photograph a wedding in Costa Rica this year. The couple was amazing. We felt like we were photographing our friends because their whole family treated us like we were one of the guests at the wedding. What a pleasure it was to work with them!

jumping on the band wagon

I think I've held out long enough. Seeing that I love to check everyone else's blog every day, I guess it's time to finally create my own. :) Stay tuned.

Forward in time
