married | kristina+roy

Whew.  Where has the time gone?  Between trying to still blog rest of the wedding last year (yes, I still have more than a few weddings that need to make it here, I know, sad right?!), attending WPPI, a photographer’s conference in vegas, shooting, doing the backend business stuff, and the usual life stuff, I’ve been swamped and it seems like the next couple of months won’t be any different!  But that’s a good thing, right?!  But I digress.

On a hot, hot summer day last year, I got to shoot this wedding with my friend Ashleigh at Los Angeles LDS Temple! Ashleigh was the first friend I made in this industry so I knew shooting this wedding with her was gonna be a blast, regardless of all the heat+sweat!   This was our first wedding together, my first time being at the temple and it was probably the hottest wedding I’ve shot to date!  Even with 20+ weddings they had going on at the temple,  we still managed to get some great shots of Kristina+Roy!  And as you can see, they are full of personality and lots of laughs!  Enjoy!

When you have a well planned timeline, it always makes the photographers happy. And when everything sails smoothly, it  makes the photographers even MORE happy!  And all this probably wouldn’t have been possible without Catherine!  It really pays to have a good coordinator!  :)

The day started out in the ever so trendy hotel room in Viceroy Santa Monica where Jenn+Daniel got ready.  Youkeun+I got there early to document them getting ready and to shoot the details with plenty of time to spare.  I must’ve took more than 50 shots of the shoes alone!  :) What can I say?  Badgley Mischka paired with a gorgeous suite at the viceroy does that to a girl!  Then we were headed of to the newly renovated Walnut Grove at tierra rejada ranch in Moorpark for their beautiful outdoor wedding!

This wedding was nothing short of amazing, beautiful couple, perfect weather on a summer day, gorgeous venue, and the most well thought-out timeline!  As always, big thanks to Youkeun for having me!

Sometimes even the weather gods are on your side and that is exactly what happened at Judy+Ray’s wedding day.  While I was driving up to La Venta Inn at Palos Verdes, I have to admit, I was a little worried.  It was an outdoor wedding and during my drive, it started drizzling and the skies didn’t look like it was going to be different anytime soon.  We got to the venue and was told by the coordinator that we might have to move the ceremony indoors but that it was for Judy to decide.  We waited patiently for Judy to make her final call.  As it got closer and closer to the ceremony, the rain stopped and she decided to take her chances for an outdoor ceremony, after all, the ceremony was only 15 minutes long and it was her day!  So glad she made that call!  Even more glad the weather gods were on their side! whew.
Without further adieu, here’s Judy+Ray’s wedding day!  Again, I can’t thank youkeun enough for letting me join him to document this day.
