Bright, Bold and Happy…{Eve + David, Leoness Cellars Temecula Wedding Photographer}

David and Eve had such an amazing wedding over at Leoness Cellars.  We loved all the bright pops of color incorporated throughout their wedding day from their paper details to the bouquet.  Everyone had such a great time celebrating with them and we were so happy to have been there capturing it all.

How gorgeous is the ceremony site over at Leoness Cellars!!  We love that it overlooks the rolling vineyards and valley mountains.  It was the perfect setting for a perfect day.

Sweet Petals did an incredible job on all of the ladies’ bouquests!!  Bright, Bold and Happy are the three words that come to mind every time we see them!!

We even had our friends over at Jake Duke Studios come out to set up this gorgeous scene for our couple to use for their portraits!!   As many of you know, we specialize in styled scenes and this was our favorite part of the day!!  We want all of our couples to feel like they walked onto the set of a magazine shoot when they see their styled scene and Jake Duke Studios did just that!!

After we headed into the barrel room for their reception.  The music was great, the food was delicious and the people were awesome!! This is why we love being Temecula wedding photographers.

Thank you all so much for having us share in your special day!! Congratulations!!

Keep It Simple…{Jessica + Morgan, Murrieta Forest Engagement Session Photographer}

There are proposals…and then there are PROPOSALS.  Call us romantics but we LOVE hearing all about how our couples got engaged.  Jessica and Morgan’s engagement story has got to one of our favorites.   Jessica was performing in Edinburgh, Scotland for the Fringe Festival and was gone for month.  Even though Morgan and Jessica had talked about getting engaged, he knew he’d have to do something really surprising. With help from her dad- and his impressive airline miles-  Morgan flew to Scotland!!!  Jessica opened the door to her bedroom on August 22 after her matinee and Morgan was on one knee in a three-piece suit!!  He kept it simple and said, “Jessica I love you. Will you marry me?” It was the surprise of a lifetime!!

Persistence is the Key..{Shelby + John, The Humphrey’s Estate Temecula Engagement Session}

John and Shelby met through mutual friends.  She was taking a ceramics class when John’s best friend’s girlfriend saw her and thought she would look great with John.  She reached out to a mutual friend who arranged for them to all get together.  Shelby avoided it for awhile but John was persistent so they finally all got together.  They met at a hookah lounge, where John was very shy and hardly spoke to her. The next day he texted Shelby and they got to know each other a little better and planned their next date.  Seven years later, they are planning their wedding!!  We met up with Shelby and John over at The Humphrey’s Estate for some portraits around the estate and then our friends over at Madam Palooza set up a styled scene for them.

Two Peas in a Pod…{Megan + Damian, San Juan Capistrano Mission Engagement Session}

Damian and Megan first met at a country music festival called Stagecoach.  They had mutual friends who introduced them but started officially dating about 9 months later after Damian asked Megan to come over for their first date where he made her dinner.   We love that the two of them are definitely two peas in a pod.  They get each others silly sides that most others wouldn’t understand.  They are fun, totally adorable and such a blast to be around!!

An Elegant Affair…{Jennifer + Jeremy, Ponte Winery Temecula Wedding Photographer}

Jennifer and Jeremy’s wedding was such an elegant affair with hints of emerald, ivory and gold accents throughout all of their details and decor.  We loved sharing in their special day over at Ponte Winery and are beyond excited that we are Temecula Wedding Photographers.

The rain threatened to come out and play on their wedding day, so the tent was the perfect way to ensure that they could still get married outdoors with all of the beautiful scenery that Ponte Winery has to offer.

Afterwards we headed over to the lemon groves to grab a few more portraits of the two of them.  We love using two locations on all of our engagement sessions so that there it total variety with location, outfits and feel of the images.

Fun, Fun and More Fun… {Brookelyn + Shane, Temecula Wedding Photographer}

Brookelyn and Shane’s wedding was SO.MUCH.FUN.  The two of them have such a great relationship!!  Their love is playful, silly and being around the two of them is loads of fun.  Shane literally had us cracking up the entire time with all of his silliness.  We love it when couples just relax and be themselves in front of the camera because it gives us the opportunity to capture exactly who they are through the lens.
