The Epic Bieber Dance

Words cannot express how happy this dance makes me every time I watch it. We had no idea this was coming, and neither did Judith. Well done Aaron! It also made it to the Style Me Pretty blog, woohoo!

James and Cecile

We met James and Cecile at Anna and Brandon’s wedding last year. They flew out from the UK for an end of summer Palm Springs destination wedding. More on that to come, but first up the engagement session from the day before the wedding. These two completely won us over right away, James with his dry sense of humor, and Cecile with her impossibly sweet (and stylish) spirit.

One last one, with the holga.

Whitney + Kevin

Whitney and Kevin’s Sonoma wedding was a beautiful event! The vineyard setting was stunning!

Beautiful bride, her sister and her both incorporated brooches in their wardrobe.

So many etsy touches throughout this wedding!

BR Cohn winery provides an intimate setting amidst the vineyard.

Whitney and her sister did so many of the DIY touches for this wedding! Handwritted escort names, hand cut table numbers, mixing of patterns and flowers were a constant and cool theme at the wedding!

They probably had one of the best candy bars I’ve seen, they featured all the normal candy favorites PLUS the couple’s favorite asian candies- hi chew, pocky, japanese gumballs… YES.

The night ended with cigars, smores and sweet potato fries! Thanks Alice for coordinating a beautiful wedding! And thanks to Kevin and Whitney for being so sweet- you’ve made us Blue Bottle Coffee lovers!

darren + millie

Millie and Darren were married at Craven’s Estate in Pasadena. Overall, a simply stunning wedding which felt more like a reunion with so many former brides in attendance! More details here on the feature at Style Me Pretty!















Craven Estate, gifted to the Red Cross, is located on “millionaires row” in Pasadena, CA and is the perfect indoor/outdoor venue for wedding photography. We hope to shoot there again soon!



Many of our former couples together!




The team that helped put this beautiful day together:

And one I didn’t shoot

This is my mom…at 19.
Perfect lighting (not a bad subject I might add!) Proof positive that good lighting, solid composition and perfect tones never go out of style!
