Welker Wedding

As I near the end of the season with only one more wedding left after this one, I love when I can walk away from a wedding encouraged and anxious to download the images. This wedding was a short one, however, it was amazing. Liz was a beautiful bride that had such a stunning look to her....she seriously could be a model. She could pull off the "no smile look" and in the next shot have a priceless laugh to her. The Shorecliff was a breathtaking venue as always and the sunset was perfect. Surprisingly, as we were taking the last bit of the couple shots, there was another couple in the gazebo getting engaged! It truly was a day of celebrating. Enjoy...

Knowlton Wedding

Absolutely amazing! Melanie and Corey's wedding at Firestone Vineyard in Santa Ynez last weekend was beyond what I could expect or hope for. Melanie has such a sweet, easy going spirit about her which made her great to work with. Yes, she is a beautiful bride but her personality truly shined the whole day. Corey is a perfect match for Melanie and he was great to watch as he saw Melanie for the first time. He had such a gentleness in his face when he looked at her...what a couple.

The ceremony had a quick rain before everyone sat down, but it made the skyline almost majestic. The bright sun through the clouds came down on the couple with such a soft look that one could not help but say, "God is blessing this marriage already." As for the reception, Melanie and Corey thought of every detail and the place was not missing one thing or speical touch. I hope you enjoy the show as much as I did shooting it!
