The Fig House is one of the most stylish venue’s in Los Angeles; with it’s vine-covered deep blue walls, colorful stained glass windows, and vibrant art deco furniture… it really doesn’t need much more to make it serious wedding eye-candy. So, needless to say – I was extremely excited to find out Fang and Daniel […]

Krystle and Alex arrived to the Griffith Observatory a bit nervous; but as we hiked further down the dirt road that lead to a spectacular view of the city, I could almost feel that nervousness drift away.

Julie and Bruno’s beautiful wedding was at Calamigos Ranch in Malibu, Ca. and if you have been following my work, you know I’m a sucker for “fairytale” type weddings… so, needless to say, their Woodland Wonderland Inspired wedding was right up my alley!

This Camarillo Ranch House wedding was our first wedding of the year!! I couldn’t have imagined a more perfect day for these two. When we first met, Andrew and Jennifer told me their proposal story, and I could not stop giggling! Let’s just say – she said something that out of context would be scary […]
