Golden Hour Lovin'

This super sweet So Cal couple asked me to photograph them after their wedding in locations both nostalgic and beautiful: the La Jolla Cove, La Jolla Shores and Balboa Park. It was so much fun to make pictures of them in the same spots that I also used to play as a kid. The ethereal light made the afternoon even more magical. I was thrilled when at the end of the shoot, they both decided to go for a stroll in the ocean.

Shelly and Matt exchanged vows in my hometown of San Diego. It's no surprise that this stunning and savvy bride owns a boutique day spa called Lux Esthetics . Matt has been a renowned San Diego musician for years, but also owns and runs a San Diego independent record label called Gravity Records. He released and distributed The Rapture's first album.



 

 

 

Afternoon in Avalon

I'll let Erin introduce this magical place: "Mike and I met in Avalon, New Jersey while sharing a beach house with a group of friends on 33rd street. After four years of dating, one Christmas morning while opening gifts, Mike proposed and I said yes!" Simple story, but perfect for this couple that fits together so naturally. I spent an idyllic afternoon on the beach with Erin and Mike about a month before their wedding. Though full of wedding to-do lists, and work obligations, they were able to take this time out together to make some pretty pictures with me. Erin remarked that it was the first time in a long time they'd had the chance to just hang out together. I'm glad I could give them the excuse, and glad I could come along to enjoy the simple beauty of their love and a summer evening on the beach. 

 

I'm excited to share their beautiful wedding day at the Phoenixville Foundry next.
