Laguna Beach Wedding

I spent a fun day again with my photographer friend Tricia and her husband Doug.  It is so neat that she lets me come along on her weddings.  (Trish ~ I really appreciate it).  This wedding was held at Tivoli Terrace along Laguna Canyon Road.  What an interesting and eclectic wedding venue.  It has a really neat garden patio feel with fun touches of antiques all around.  By the way, the food is scrumptious!  Following the wedding we went down to the beach to take some pictures of this very sweet couple.  They have a fun engagement story.  The groom placed his proposal on a note in a bottle...see the bottle picture below.  They were at one of the Laguna Beaches admiring the ocean when he tossed the bottle (while she wasn't looking) into the ocean.  Of course the tide brought the bottle back up to the beach and the bride-to-be found it.  How romantic!

Ginny and Tim

My friend Tricia allowed me to come along on another wedding she photographed.  It's so fun to see her work with couples.  The wedding was in Redlands and the couple did a second shoot location of The Raines House in Rancho Cucamonga.  Thanks again Trish for the experience. 





These centerpieces were really unique.  As the couple was doing another reception in Louisiana they needed the centerpieces to travel..... hence the centerpieces were made out of tea stained coffee filters.  The attention to detail was pretty amazing at this reception.

San Diego Wedding

What a surprise when I found out that a new friend, Tricia Swift, from my Valle Vista Bunco group is a wedding photographer.  I was even more surprised when she offered to let me go along as her assistant on an upcoming wedding in San Diego.  The big thrill was that we were going to be taking pictures on the beach in Laguna (something I was really looking forward to).  The bummer was that rain was forecast for the big day.  After a quick change of location, Trish found a fantastic spot in La Jolla.  While the clouds were a bit foreboding, we never even saw a drop.  Here's a few fun shots from the day...

This very sweet couple, Katie and Jake, were so willing to do whatever to get some really great shots!




Trish tried her hand at some cool urban poses.





















Thanks so much Trish for a great day!  I had a ball.  It's great to see someone that really loves what they do.  Tricia Swift is fantastic with people.  She works so quickly and makes it all look so fun.  If you want to check out Tricia's site go to:  http://picturesofyou.weebly.com/
