Lake Arrowhead Wedding Photography | Jishiel and Ernesto

Last Fall, we had the pleasure of going to Lake Arrowhead Resort as Jishiel and Ernesto got married in the quiet mountains overlooking the beautiful lake. It was a brisk day, but the love they have for each other and their families provided the warmth and happiness throughout the whole day. 

We've been able to see the love between Jishiel and Ernesto grow as we've known them for a few years now and it's so exciting to see them from their engagement session to their wedding day. We're excited to see them continue to grow with each other as they embark on their marriage journey together!

Be sure to Congratulate them and show them some love in the comments below!

Almansor Court Wedding Photography | Stephanie and Sean

What can we say, but we are so excited to share Stephanie and Sean's wedding with you! We shot their engagement session at the Redondo Beach Pier and that's when they told us they were going to save their first kiss for their wedding day. That's such a personal and unique aspect of their relationship, that really shows how much love and honor they have for each other, it's almost unbelievable! 

The outpouring of love and support from friends and family was so amazing to be a part of. We had so much fun with these two and we couldn't be happier for them. 

Congrats again guys!!

Beverly Hills Courthouse Wedding Photography | Cristina & Howard

A few weeks ago, we were asked to be a part of Cristina and Howard's intimate wedding at the Beverly Hills Courthouse. They've been together for about 8 years and it was so beautiful to see their family involved in their ceremony. It kind of reminded us of when we renewed our vows. 

We met at the courthouse and waited for family and friends to arrive. Although the ceremony was shorter than most, there was no denying how much love from their friends and family was evident in the room. 

After the ceremony a private lunch was held at Lawry's with a full dessert bar that was to die for! 

Congrats you guys and we hope you have a beautiful 2014!!

Sportsmen's Lodge, Studio City, CA Wedding Photography | Suzette and Aaron

Where do I begin with these guys?

On a cool Sunday afternoon, we met Suzette and Aaron for the first time at Dripp in Chino Hills as we discussed their story and eventual wedding plans. And after an hour or so discussing how we would shoot their engagement session and wedding, Gina and I left without booking them. But we were both amazed at how we met such an awesome, young couple who seemed to be just like us, minus a few years!

 After about 10 minutes of leaving the coffee shop, we pull into our garage and I get a call. 

"Hello." 

"Chris, we want you." 

"Who is this?" 

"This is Suzette, we just met you and Gina and I'm not sure why we didn't say anything before we left, but we want you guys to do our wedding."  

Boom! Just like that, we were granted the honor of shooting Suzette & Aaron's wedding at the Sportsmen's Lodge in Studio City. 

We shot their engagement session in the middle of LA and had a few meetings afterward to discuss their wedding plans and timeline over ice cream. 

They are one of the coolest couples as they come and we are so glad to call them friends from here on out! Gina and I want to say Congrats on an awesome wedding and we wish you guys the best in everything!

Spanish Wedding Photography | Patty & Jose Married at Private Estate Rancho Providencia - Los Angeles, CA

It's not often we hear of a venue change so close to the wedding date, so when Patty asked our opinion of Rancho Providencia as far as photos were concerned, we told her it was the perfect place as it held a lot of charm and would give a unique feel to their wedding. Patty and Jose wanted a (in there words) "Mexican Rustic" wedding and we'd have to say that it looks like they pulled it off. 

Along with the unique appeal of the Spanish hacienda setting and the addition of the individual details by Patty and her girls', their wedding day was as intimate as can be.

To top it off the reception was al fresco with string lights along the dirt road providing the warm, ambient light. It was truly a beautiful day to celebrate one of the most beautiful weddings we've been asked to be a part of so far!

We're so excited for Patty and Jose to see you guys so happy and in love! From Gina and I, much love and happiness to you guys!
