Melissa and I are actually retired from wedding and family photography, but if you'd like to take a look around you'll see some of the wonderful clients and memories we had with all these beautiful people.
The day came and went, but this beautiful day won’t soon be forgotten. What a sweet day this was! Taryn and Andrew were married at the Cesar Chavez Center in Keene, CA. I was amazed at how pretty the facility...

What a sweet day this was! Taryn and Andrew were married at the Cesar Chavez Center in Keene, CA. I was amazed at how pretty the facility and grounds were.
Take a look at their day.. my pictures can’t come close to how special the day was.
What a great performance! The other night Melissa and I made sure to hang around for this group. They played several amazing renditions of my favorite songs. I had a great time this evening! Thanks Guys!

Melissa and I LOVE doing PHOTOBOOTHS! We have so much fun with the guests! For our weddings we always offer a Photobooth as a popular add-on. The images that come from our photobooths are always high quality and super fun! You can see why these are so popular to include at a wedding. In and around Bakersfield, you may see us at a wedding or company party, and sometimes even a house party!
Misty and Greg [Higgins] asked us to be a part of their beautiful wedding day.. and after the sun set, the dance music triggered the start of the photobooth! Take a look at these fun pics! Misty and Greg.. Your wedding was so fun!
The Gardens at Mill Creek are a great place to host a wedding! A really beautiful venue.. Check it out!

You may remember Jeremy and Michelle from their sweet Disneyland Engagement Session. Well, before we made it into the park we got to hang out at Starbucks for a little while before we braved the huge crowds in the park. So this is a little Engagement Session inside of another Engagement Session! Disneyland with these two was so much fun… our time at Starbucks was amazing… these people are basically amazingly fun people.
We can’t wait until your wedding at the Bell Tower Club in November, Jeremy and Michelle!
Melissa and I were fortunate to attend a preview of Cars Land and Buena Vista Street in the “newly-reimagined” and renamed “Disney California Adventure.” Whether or not I think this was a necessary change is a different discussion, but what Disney has accomplished in the park is truly monumental and special.
Our day started off rough, running late getting to Disneyland, getting in an accident in Anaheim, having to tow our car back to Bakersfield and missing our scheduled time slot to this event we had been so excited to attend for several months, was not the way we’d hope this would go.
We have all had our bad service experiences with select cast members, but on this day, the real Disney service shined. Not only were they kind enough to let us in to the event, they gave us tickets to a World of Color show that night. Inside the lands we visited, the cast members were the model of smiles and kindness. Being taken back to 1920s Los Angeles in Buena Vista Street and completely immersed in one of the most intricately designed lands I’ve ever seen from Disney, was exactly what we needed that day. Needless to say, this park has become something truly special.
Here’s a list of some new attractions and eating establishments:
This is by no means an exhaustive play-by-play of Disney’s huge expansion to an already-great theme park. I just wanted to share some of the photos we gathered on the day. I hope to post more soon. Also with a video.
I hope you enjoy the pictures! Try to visit this place soon.. It is really amazing.

Map from MiceChat - Car's Land is so big! This map gives you an idea of where everything is.
In case you couldn’t guess from the title of this post… Fair warning: It includes gratuitous pictures of people in love, in The Happiest Place On Earth (can I get sued for using that title?).
Fun. Epic. Busy.
That about describes the 2 fantastic days we all got to spend together.. in Disneyland. Melissa and I have been itching to shoot a couple in Disneyland for some time now. Jeremy and Michelle are almost as obsessed with Disneyland as we are! Knowing they had gotten engaged at Disneyland we knew we had to try. We casually (read: not so subtly) mentioned that there was a “strong possibility” we could all hang out at Disneyland, and call it an “Engagement Session.”
We had So. Much. Fun! These two are hilarious!
It was everything we hoped it could be, and BUSY. The park was so packed! We didn’t really expect the park to be as full as it was, but whatever.. We had a blast! The thing I love most about these images is to see Jeremy and Michelle’s honest feelings for each other. They’re just pretty people inside and out… and as you can tell, they just adore each other.
Anyone would be lucky to call these two friends, and after this trip.. We get to. :)
We can’t be more excited for their wedding this November!
PS.. It was tough to work around the crowds, BUT I was able to do a little homage to one of my favorite pictures of Walt Disney. See if you know which one I’m talking about… ;)
I am so excited for these two to get married! When we were at Hart Park together we talked a lot about the wedding. Wedding planning can be so frustrating at times, but ultimately it’s exciting! These two are so in love and looking forward to it.
Andrew is one of the nicest guys you could ever meet, and as you may notice in these pictures he adores Taryn. I’ve known Taryn for a few years now because she’s my cousin, well sort of. I married her cousin. :) I hope you enjoy these pictures as much as I enjoyed spending this time with these beautiful people.
Mel just got her boots for Taryn‘s Wedding. She said, “Will you take a picture of me in my new boots! They were such a good deal!” Sure.. Why not. 60 bucks is a good deal for...
