Alyssa and Aric's Central California Coast Wedding
A day spent in Santa Barbara and on the beautiful central coast is always a day well spent to us. With that said, what Alyssa and Aric had in store for us on their wedding day was really a photographer's dream and an absolute blissful day. From the Ritz Carlton, to a pre-ceremony joyride in an old-school Porsche and right on down to the most amazing little cliff spot where the ceremony took place, we were smiling real big allllll. day. long. One of our favorite parts had to be the stunning floral arrangements by Forage Florals that lined the ceremony location - they were lush and whimsical and packed with the softest texture and color. Yes it was as lovely as it sounds.

Korakia Pensione Wedding - Yas & Ben
It's true, we'll probably be dreaming of Korakia Pensione for days, months, years to come. It was an outrageously hot day in Palm Springs but the amount of beauty witnessed Yas and Ben's wedding day completely made up for it. The hotel provided an intimate and cozy environment that really ended up feeling like home as the night was coming to an end. These kids threw a mean party full of dancing, ear to ear grins and the kind of laughter that makes your stomach ache. The kind of night we live for.

Yari & Dario's Joshua Tree Elopement
Yes we are always up for an adventure but when Yari and Dario said that we'd be heading out to Joshua Tree National Park we were like two kids on Christmas eve night! Elopements hold a special place in our hearts - documenting a private, intimate ceremony between two individuals is truly one of the most magical things we've ever witnessed. With Yari and Dario, it was impossible not to tear up over their bond and the warmth that existed between them. They had picked out a completely surreal spot to exchange vows, it was pure sky and trees for days - it really felt like a little slice of heaven just for us. Alright, enough! But seriously.. such an amazing day! Scroll for more :)
