Fullerton Wedding – Dayna + Mike

This past weekend, I had the pleasure of shooting Dayna and Mike’s wedding in Fullerton, CA. This couple did such a great job with planning a very low budget wedding. I thought that their sandals were a creative touch for a casual feel. It was cute to see Dayna and her daughter have matching sandals and bouquets! It was clear how much love Dayna and Mike have for their lovely daughter and for each other. I really enjoyed the uniqueness of their backyard wedding; it was a very intimate setting with just family and close friends. Red Velvet Occasions did a great job in making it happen! Once the dancing started, Mike really showed his great moves! There was lots of love and laughter in the air! Enjoy the pictures of this unforgettable wedding!

Wedding shoot with JNP Studios

What an awesome wedding!  I had the privilege of shooting this wedding with Jeffrey Neil’s from JNP Studios!  He is definitely one of my favorites and is such a great friend.  We had a blast capturing this wedding at the Millennium Biltmore Hotel and the Walt Disney Concert Hall in Los Angeles.  The couple and their families were super sweet!  These are a few of my shots; I really enjoyed being a third shooter because it allowed me the opportunity to be creative and fun!  Thanks for such a great experience Jeffrey!  I hope we’ll be working together more.
