We are so excited to be shooting Anna and Andrew’s wedding coming up in just a couple months!  We wanted to do a little “warm-up” session with them, so they can get used to how it feels in front of our camera.  I think they’re doing just fine.

See for yourself.

BTW, the lettering on the thumbnail for this post came directly from their wedding invitation designer Cassie Poe.  Thanks Cassie for letting me use your amazing hand-drawn typography!

Announcing Daniel and Serena Hinojosa!  We couldn’t be more excited to share this day with this amazing couple.  From our first meeting in Starbucks, we knew we were on to something good with these two!  We had so much fun with them during their engagement session in Disneyland earlier this year, and knew that their wedding was going to be a blast.  We couldn’t wait!  This sweet couple is full of love for each other, and those around them.  In case you couldn’t tell from these pictures, they’re also some of the happiest people you could ever hope to meet.

Daniel and Serena are also fellow Disneyland lovers, so they have a special place in our hearts.  If that weren’t enough, Serena had a hidden Mickey sewn into her dress!!  Check out the last picture of this set.  I couldn’t help but giggle like a little boy (or probably more like a little girl) when she showed me.  I hope you enjoy these pictures!  This day was so much fun!

Thank you Daniel and Serena for letting us be a part of your day.

Wedding coordinated by the incomparable Tracey Buys of Attention To Detail.  This is the 2nd chance we’ve had to work with Tracey, she’s amazing!  Seriously!

I think it’d been around 10 years since I last saw Gaby.  At that time, I was studying photography at Cal State Northridge.  Through the years, Gaby has been a great supporter of my work.  So it was really fun to catch up with an old friend to take some photos of her and her awesome fiancee Chris, in sweet Santa Barbara!

I can’t believe I’ve never visited this great town.  For those of you who have been to Santa Barbara, know what I’m talking about.. It’s just cool there!  :) If you haven’t been, and are capable of visiting… do it!

Gaby and Chris plan on having their wedding in October of this year, and we CAN’T WAIT to be a part of that!

Well, enough from me.. enjoy these sweet pictures of two really cool people, in a cool town.  It’s just too bad that my pictures weren’t able to capture Chris’ Australian accent!

CHEERS!

btw.. That out of focus picture is actually where their wedding will be!  We got to see it in action.. so cool!  I just left that in as a tease.  :)
