Associate Kayla: Ryan Wedding {Peacock Farms}

I first met Katie many years ago at a bachelorette party for one of my good friends. I instantly enjoyed being around Katie. She was funny, outgoing, and spunky--just my kind of person. We kept in touch over Facebook for years. As I got to know Katie better through Facebook, I began to see that not only was she awesome, but she was genuinely a good, warm-hearted person. When she announced that she was engaged, I just knew that Katie wouldn't have settled for anything less and that Kevin must be the same. I was elated when she contacted me about taking pictures of her wedding; and even more excited when she said it was going to be at Peacock Farms. Kevin and Katie were just perfect for each other. Kevin was looking clean and sharp in his khaki suit and Katie was just as stunning in her dress and killer mint shoes. The day went flawlessly. It was so encouraging to see two people, so in love, and so perfect for one another become one. Congratulations you two!

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
