Los Angeles Summer Wedding - Linda + Scott

 

I'm pretty honest, so I'll say it. Linda doesn't give a FUCK about rules, and how life/things are supposed to be. She's a free spirit and not afraid of saying her opinions yet agreeing with almost everything, and Scott worries because "she has such a good heart that the world will take advantage of her." Scott adores her in every possible way.

It was a lunch wedding on a hot summer day (about 100 degrees) last year at Altadena Country Club; Linda carried her portable fan around everywhere...... Literally. And you know how much I love her for that. ;-)

Palos Verdes Wedding - Ashley + Will

"Annie, we're doing this wedding thing just for you - literally," Ashley told me on her wedding day. "We wanted photos with our family and close friends. This means so much to us."

I started laughing and then went, 'oh holy shit...'

Ashley and Will got married in Vegas two years ago and were not sure about the whole wedding idea in the beginning; because... you know, weddings are not cheap, especially when you're paying for everything. Ashley and Will Airbnb-ed a house in Redondo Beach, had tons of awesome friends and family members helping to decorate the reception at Cheesecake Factory after their ceremony at The Neighborhood Church in Palos Verdes. I witnessed and felt so much love pouring on these two wonderful people, and even on me. Who doesn't like to feel loved? It's certainly so wonderful to be included as part of the family/friend group; I mean, I'm in their wedding album. #goals. haha just kidding.

 

 

 

Intimate Backyard Wedding in La Canada - Matt + Keagan

Someone once asked me which one was my absolute favorite wedding I've photographed. I mumbled a little and didn't have an answer for it, and I don't think I will ever. I can't choose one. It's such a difficult question, equivalent to asking a little kid if they like their mom or dad. Anyway... long story short; I really enjoyed photographing Matt and Keagan's heartfelt wedding at Keagan's parents' house in La Canada last summer. Matt and Keagan live in Washington, DC but married here in Southern California surrounded by their close friends and family.

Keagan's dad, such a loving person, had decorated the entire place; no he's not a florist but yes, he's THAT talented. It was a beautiful day packed with joyful emotions and I hope you enjoy a little glimpse of their wedding day!!
