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!

The soft clouds added a dreamy look to Prachee + Brian’s beach wedding. So happy for them! ...
Prachee + Brian had an intimate wedding ceremony on the beach in San Clemente. Everyone held their breath as the tide came closer and closer as they said their vows but the couple embraced it and put their feet in the water after! 💕 ...
One more epic preview from Ali + Troy’s Engagement. 🤩

I just hit 30 weeks pregnant and as my belly gets bigger, I get more out of breath, battle being hangry too often, and take more naps, I don’t always feel my best. @camrynclairphoto did some maternity photos for me and made me feel so beautiful and celebrated. It was such a gift and I’m so thankful for these photos to cherish this beautiful, awkward, wonderful new experience.
Sweet baby sunshine, we can’t wait to meet you and show you this beautiful world! ☀️💛 ...
This years Motherhood Photo Event was so special! I loved celebrating all these moms and moms-to-be!! Big shout out to @makeupbykaitlynweathers for glamming up my girls, @devynsdressrentals and @camstudios_oc ...
What’re your nicknames for each other? David calls Brooke his little Honey Bee! She wears the name proudly with a little bee in her hair. 😍
I love it when my husband calls me Jan-Cakes.
