Chris and Lauryn’s love for the Phantom of the Opera and the theater inspired their wedding theme with bold red roses and long draping velvet curtains. Got to love their red hot details!
Chris grew up in a house overlooking the lake and Sun and Sail Club in Lake Forest. He could see the fountains and reflections on the water day after day. The lake is home for him. Chris and Lauryn said their vows on the lake’s edge as a symbol of their new home in each other and the history they’ve shared.
Chris and Lauryn, I am so happy for the two of you and so thrilled you chose me to be your photographer. You’re love for each other and your friends and family was so beautiful to see. Truly inspiring.
You can see Chris’ childhood home from the arbor where they became Mr & Mrs.
This breathtaking cake was created by Chris’ mother. It was a big undertaking but wow it turned out amazing and such a sweet gift. (pun unintended)
Big shout out to all these amazing vendors that put so much work and care into making this day great!

I love capturing the details and the behind the scene of a wedding day… Even before the bride and groom get to see each other.

Katrina and Tony made it a special point not to call or see each other before their wedding ceremony. Tony even turned his back until the exact moment Katrina was lined up in view down the aisle. It was a very emotional sweet day and I’m so happy for them.

Jennifer and Philippe had been down different paths but fate brought them together. We got to do some wedding portraits of them before they left to elope in Hawaii just the two of them. 😍

Got to be a part of @communityhousedp Open House yesterday! I didn’t even know this hidden gem existed! Right in the heart of Dana Point it’s perfect for a small wedding or party.
