Susan and Dylan were so calm and easy to work with, it was definitely one of the most relaxed weddings I have been a part of. The venue was amazing, the Pala Mesa Resort in Fallbrook. I enjoyed being able to capture their wedding day in images… see a few samples below!

Susan’s nieces, her flower girls. They were fun!

Hope you enjoyed a few of these images from their wedding day, got plenty more to be working on here!

I’m starting to get really pumped for the 2010 weddings that await! It all begins next month (unless some crazy last minute bride needs a photographer in the next 9 days…) While I am very excited about the weddings lined up for this year, I don’t want to forget about what a great year 2009 was. Here are links to some of the work I did last year. :)

Now presenting… Mr. and Mrs. Ryan and Cristina Tirrell! I had such a great time photographing this wedding at Etiwanda Gardens in Rancho Cucamonga. The venue was serene, and the people were awesome. Enjoy taking a look at some of the images from the day.

I was thrilled to have the opportunity to photograph James and Kristin (Martin) Shook’s wedding over the weekend! I have a lot of photos to work through, but here are a few, just to preview what’s coming!

The beautiful bride and her handsome groom

We’re back with a few more wedding images from Ki Yong and Carolyn’s wedding at Grace Church of Glendora! I mentioned they also held a traditional pae baek ceremony, and here are some of the images!

Here is the scene

I would rather let Ki Yong and Carolyn do the explaining, so here is the information that was on all the tables at the reception.
