Every once in a while, we have out of state couples contact us saying that they are getting married in California and would like to have us shoot their wedding. We always feel SUPER flattered when this happens because we feel like those couples are really going out of their way (as in, half way across the world!) to make their wedding dream happen and we are so honored when we are chosen to be a part of that.
Cherry + Raymond went a step further. They are from Hong Kong and booked us for a couples session. They didn’t get married out here, but Cherry put on two wedding dresses and they carved out a significant chunk of their time in California to have a couples session with us. You can’t help but feel a little special when someone visits from the other side of the planet and chooses to spend their time in California shooting with you. :)
These photos are so beautiful! The sunset pictures are unbelievable. Good work.
Larissa + Andy really wanted to shoot in Santa Barbara because Larissa mentioned to us “that is where our relationship began and lives.” We thought this was a fantastic idea because it’s not only gorgeous but also has so much meaning to them! They wanted to shoot at the beach, at the Santa Barbara Mission, and do somewhere a little more rustic/natural. Usually we would recommend against doing three totally separate locations without adding some extra time, but it just so happens that there is a lovely natural area near one of the locations, so it was really only two, which is totally perfect! :)
We love getting up to Santa Barbara whenever we can (who doesn’t!?) and we had a great time shooting with Larissa + Andy. It was an all-around great day with this super adorable couple. :)
We love Limoneira Ranch in Santa Paula. We love it so much that WE got married there a few years ago!
Theresa + Alex’s wedding was our first time coming back to Limoneira since our wedding, so we were SUPER excited to shoot their wedding. We weren’t disappointed! Theresa + Alex’s wedding was so beautiful and they are such a sweet couple that our first visit back to Limoneira was truly a delight. :)
