Sherlin and Brendan were married at their church in Lancaster in front of their closest family and friends. You could just tell everyone invited cared for them dearly! They also opted to see each other in this beautiful setting before their ceremony. I am so glad we were able to document their first look amongst these billowing trees and poppies! Congratulations Mr. & Mrs. Patz!

Chanel had a blast at her Fancy Nancy Themed Birthday Party! It was so cute seeing Chanel and her friends use real teacups and sip tea…well lemonade 🙂
Family and friends could also make their own poodle, get a manicure, have their makeup done, play dress-up and take a photo with Fancy Nancy and have it printed in a cute photo folio.
Oh and did you see the dessert bar?! YUM! Happy Birthday CHANEL!!!

Event Planning: The Perfect Party
Vavé Studios said hello to fall with a block party and sidewalk sale last week! My friends Patrice & Jessica own an adorable flower shop in South Pasadena and create custom floral arrangements for weddings and events. I’m lucky to have worked alongside them at weddings because their bouquets and arches are a photographer’s dream.
I was excited when they asked me to photograph their event and promote my holiday mini sessions. Appetizers and custom built tables were provided by His & Hers| Rentals & Catering. Their food is not only delicious, but stunning to look at. I call it food art 🙂
Everyone that stopped by received a gift bag with a mini pumpkin and succulent. Bubbly and Bites were kindly hosted by the Kutzer Company. It was such a treat to shop with a glass of champagne in hand and listen to records play in the background. I also bought some gorgeous earrings by the talented jewelry designer Marisa Bosquez.
Bravo to the ladies of Vavé including Angela, Marisa & Kathryn for hosting such a fabulous event!
We’d love for you to follow us on Instagram!

Jennelyn and Jomel’s morning wedding was a delightful change from the afternoon weddings I photograph. The light was beautifully different, and the reception photos were mostly shot with natural light. I had been anticipating their wedding, and the night before lost my voice! I thought to myself, this is going to make things hard when posing everyone for formals. Luckily I had my favorite wedding coordinator Herlina by my side and she appointed someone to read the list of family photos for me. My start time was 6:30a, and an hour into shooting, Jenn’s mom made sure that I take a break and eat breakfast, haha! She reminded me of my mom 🙂
The day unfolded as planned, their ceremony and vows were filled with emotion. After they said “I do” their son jumped for joy…definitely one of my favorite photos of the day. Congratulations Mr. & Mrs. Limbo!

Rosie and Joel are my Disneyland couple! I photographed their engagement session at the Happiest Place on Earth back in May. We had a wonderful time getting to know each other, so when it came to the big day, I felt like a friend. Rosie looked beautiful in her mermaid style gown. Their wedding colors were various shades of purple and lavender to create that hombre effect.
Their wedding was like a fairy-tale, with touches of Disney and their own personal flare – check out that Green Lantern inspired wedding ring Rosie surprised Joel with. Congratulations you guys! We all know you will live Happy Ever After!
