Tivoli Terrace wedding photos - Laguna Beach, CA

Tivoli Terrace is a great wedding location!
This couple was so sweet and just got back from their honeymoon - so tried to get these up quicker than usual. :)
Make sure you read some explanations of a few of the images - as the image alone doesn't mean much - it's the story behind the image. :)



This Dad sure did love his daughter






This photo may not look like anything special - but I LOVE it. It is right before the bride is coming down the aisle and the mother of the groom put her hand on the bride's mother. I think it is so touching to see mother's have a connection like this as such a big time in "their" lives - seeing their children join as one.




The best officiant ever - Don Johnson (yes - that is his real name!)


Here is something you don't normally see - all the parents sitting together instead of groom's parents on one side and bride's on the other side. Again - just thought it was nice to see them all together.




Rock On!


A photoshop action to make it look like it's old school. :) I'm liking it lately.







I always make slide shows for my couples - and thought maybe I would post it on here. Let me know if you think it's a good idea - and I will post them for all my weddings.

Children's photography session @ our garden studio Newport Beach, CA

I have been photographing these little ones for awhile now - their mom and I have been friends since I can remember. :) The studio wasn't quite completed yet - so we did a couple indoors and then headed outside to our garden for some more shots.
