Black Wedding {Still Waters Vineyards}

The high school sweethearts got married! I loved hearing Jordan and Ashley's story on how they met (biology class Freshman year of high school)...well, what makes the story even more special is that their biology teacher officiated their wedding this past weekend at Still Waters Vineyards! There were many happy tears throughout the entire wedding as these two amazing people started their life as a married couple. The tenderness and gratefulness they expressed was moving and I considered it a privilege being the photographer for the day. As always, Still Waters is a jaw-dropping venue. From the sun setting next to the vineyard that is starting to change color to the ceremony nestled in between old olive trees, I don't think we could have asked for a more perfect location. All in all, a great day! Venue: Still Waters Vineyards Caterer: Pacific Harvest Catering DJ: LaBarbera Sound Cake: Christine's Cake Creations

Smith Wedding {Dana Powers Barn}

I am still floored with how ABSOLUTELY STUNNING Megan looked on Saturday. This couple seemed straight from a magazine and honestly couldn't take a bad picture...if only I could take some pointers. :) Alex and Megan's wedding was held at the Dana Powers Barn in Nipomo which ALWAYS provides an unbelievable backdrop for any photographer. There are places to take pictures on almost every corner with color, texture, scenery, and more...I love it there. However, I have to comment on the decor because it was a collaborative effort by Megan's friends and family. One of the first questions I asked myself when I walked in was 'Who did these flowers? They are beautiful!' Well...they did...all of them. I was beyond impressed and the barn looked amazing. I could have taken pictures all night just of the decor...but then I saw Megan and she definitely trumped the flowers with beauty. Alex and Megan's sweetness together was inspiring and I loved hearing Alex brag about how beautiful his bride is. Enjoy the pictures! Venue: Dana Powers Barn DJ: LaBarbera Sound
