Eric and Melissa had been together for over five years before they tied the knot this summer at the Oak Canyon Nature Center. Their long term relationship created their strong bond, united in love and formed out of friendship. Eric proposed to Melissa on Christmas Eve in front of both their families. It was so sweet to their families together to celebrate with them.
When it cam to planning their wedding, Melissa expressed to me how important it was to her to have a beautiful setting for where they said their vows. I am so happy they chose the Oak Canyon Nature Center in Anaheim for their ceremony. The lush trees and rustic stage created a fairytale-like serene setting. Along side their wedding party of 24 they became husband and wife surrounded by their family and friends and then headed out for their honeymoon in Italy.
Eric and Melissa, I am so happy for you two. I am so happy to call you friends. It was such an honor to photograph your Engagement Session and Wedding. You two compliment each other so well and seem to know just what the other is thinking. I pray your love continues to grow and flourish in your marriage.
So happy to have the sun out! ☀️

Date night with my hubs. 🥰 We’ve been talking about going to Kauai for a “baby moon” so we got @hapajs and dreamed about Hawaii. 🌺🪸🍍 ...
Hidden behind Giracci Vineyards is a dreamy open field. If you’re having your wedding there, be sure to make time to sneak off for some romantic sunset photos. The staff is so sweet and will drive us over in a golf cart so dont worry about needing to hike anywhere in heels.
Also, keep in mind that the sun sets earlier than you think because it gets hidden behind the hills.
