I can’t wait to share with you Van and Matt’s stunning wedding photos! Their wedding was like a dream come true with a breathtaking chapel ceremony and a reception that was full of surprises. It started with a DIY boozequet that Van made herself — a beautiful, handcrafted silk bridal bouquet with a metal straw for drinking the beer cleverly hidden in the base… genius! She also designed her own dress, incorporating Vietnamese culture into their American-style wedding. [ read more … ]

Have you ever met a couple for the first time yet felt that they were your longtime friends? Meet Kim and Brandon! They were madly in love and super laid-back and fun. And on top of all that, Kim is a singer and song writer (anyone who knows me would know how important singing is to me)! When Kim sang the song called “Feels Like Home” for Brandon during their ceremony, it touched my heart and I teared up. Her voice was beautiful!! Kim and Brandon made a lot of the wedding details themselves and we loved the Western-themed details throughout the whole wedding. Loved how they incorporated their baby dog Django into the cake topper 🙂 [ read more … ]

Nels and Lindsey’s wedding was full of vibrant colors and adorable details. Lindsey was so thoughtful that she incorporated a piece of lace from her mother’s wedding dress into her bouquet, which made her “something old” extra special! They also had a super cute “ABC’s of Marriage Advice” scrapbook made by a room of kindergarteners, and it made their candy table extra sweet!! I also just have to mention that Lindsey and Nels met through music, karaoke to be specific. So they had a karaoke jockey instead of a traditional DJ at their wedding reception, and the couple gifted each other a song — touching and hilarious at the same time!

Congratulations Lindsey and Nels. We really enjoyed capturing your wedding day story and wish you two all the very best!

This is a love story about a French girl and an American boy who met in Japan and have been in love ever since. Lucile and Michael’s modern travel-themed wedding was held at CuriOdyssey, witnessed and blessed by their family and friends from all around the world. They have put so much effort into the details – Lucile handmade ALL of the origami bouquets, boutonnieres, guest favors, and the centerpieces herself, and they incorporated French, American, and Japanese culture seamlessly into their wedding. Oh, and the tie that Michael wore was made of a piece of fabric from Lucile’s wedding dress! I was in full candid mode for the entire wedding because M&L really wanted organic moments of their special day. So I promise you, there is not a single posed photo here. Now, let the photos bring you back to a perfect day for a sweet couple. [ read more … ]

Mel & Chavon had their evening wedding at the beautiful Casa Real on New Year’s Eve! Mel runs her own bakery business and she stayed up all night the night before to make her gorgeous seven-tier wedding cake!! Everyone was wowed by Mel’s breathtaking creation and the decorations including the grand hanging chandelier. We spent 30 minutes in the bridal suite to take some getting ready photos right before the ceremony and got a lot of great shots. Thanks to you Mel, you’re truly a stunning bride! [ read more … ]
