Country Wedding at The Gardens at Los Robles Greens in Thousand Oaks, Ca | Brittany and Johnny

I'm so proud to say that this absolutely breathtaking day was featured on Wedding Chicks!

Brittany and Johnny had their fall wedding at the absolutely beautiful The Gardens at Los Robles Greens in Thousand Oaks, Ca venue. The whole occasion was filled with such personal touches, combining Brittany’s rustic country Colorado vibe and Johnny’s Santa Barbara basketball background. Opting out of a first look, Johnny saw the stunning Brittany for the first time when she walked down the aisle in her custom cowgirl boots. These two lovebirds truly kept to their own personalities, having personalized bride and groom cokes at their wedding table, and a day filled family heirlooms.

Outdoor Jewish Wedding at McCormick Home Ranch in Camarillo, Ca | Alexis and Guy

The outdoor wedding of Alexis and Guy held at the McCormick Home Ranch in Camarillo, Ca was exciting from start to finish! These two celebrated their Jewish wedding with all the usual attributes, including the signing of a handmade ketubah, a beautiful chuppah with a historical Tallit, the breaking of a glass to signify the commitment to stand by one another even in hard times, and the most incredible horah I have ever had the opportunity to experience.

I'm so stoked to say that this amazing wedding was featured on Artfully Wed!

This intimate vintage wedding of Ashley and Eric was held at The Fess Parker in Santa Barbara, CA. Seven years in the making, every year of love was worth it to conclude to this absolutely perfect day and evening. Ashley and Eric met in Chicago, among the windy city their love grew, even having their first kiss at the Clark and Roscoe stop waiting for the subway along the CTA; the Chicago Transit Authority for those who don't know. Friends and family traveled from all over the states to join together in this shimmering affair, enjoying the perfect weather that only Santa Barbara has to offer.

There is not much more I can say besides this is one of the most visually epic weddings I have been blessed to get to photograph, and not only that, it was picked up to be featured by Rock N Roll Bride.

It has been a year since these two amazing vegan bloggers, owning and operating Carrots and Flowers, got married last year in one of my favorite locations with one of my favorite themes. Megan and Pasha chose a Burning Man themed wedding 4,000 ft. up to the top of a mountain for their unforgettable five day wedding. Everything including the flowers and centerpieces were all hand made by the bride, even lighting up when night hit.

DIY Wedding at Stones and Flowers Santa Cruz Retreat | Angelina and Brandon

This wedding was featured on Something Turquiose for their awesome DIY elements!

Angelina & Brandon's rustic fairytale wedding in Ben Lomond, California at the gorgeous Stones and Flowers Santa Cruz Retreat was entirely incredible, and entirely DIY. The entire wedding was planned and completed by Angelina and their wedding party, down to the spray painted table settings, and floating heart in the barn. I knew beforehand that they were doing a lot of details themselves, and also that the location was going to be gorgeous, because hello, redwoods, but it’s hard to even put into words just how picturesque everything turned out. It truly was a modern day fairy tale in the woods!
