Meet Michele

I would like you all to meet my dear friend Michele - my best friend since infancy! She has been there for me from Barbie dolls and dance class, to our collage degrees and having her stand next to me as my Maid of Honor on my Wedding day. I am very lucky to have her as a friend and was very lucky to have her as my Maid of Honor and my Wedding Planner!

I really lucked out having my best friend be a Wedding Planner. She spent countless hours planning and coordinating my wedding, with vendor lists and timelines. Michele was and is AMAZING! She has her our business The Perfect Fairytale, and comes HIGHLY recommended.

So if any of you lovely Brides are stressing out about all the details of your wedding, I am willing to share my dear friend with you and know you are in good hands.

Check out her work... You might just see my wedding pictures on her website as well. :)

Greg & Lisa's Engagement Shoot

I met Lisa & Greg through the WeddingWire, and I am so glad they found me. They are so cute together and have the sweetest love story: These two were friends in college, with secret crushes on eachother. After graduation they went their own ways and reunited 20 years later and are getting married this March! You can see their love for eachother in their sweet smiles.

I had my friend Mandy with Amanda Sinclair Photography join me for this Engagement Shoot in Manhattan Beach. Mandy is a very talented photographer and I am excited to have her on my team and to be assisting me with some of the weddings this summer.

Patrick & Kelsey's Wedding Photobooth

Wedding Photobooths are so much fun! The first weekend of the new year I got to do a photobooth for Patrick & Kelsey's Wedding. They are such a cute couple together and they had such a sweet wedding. Also, since the wedding was in my hometown (Lake Forest)I saw a lot of people I knew from years past. It was a lot of fun and cant wait for the next one!

Congratulations Paul & Michele!

CONGRATULATIONS to my dearest friend Michele and her fiancé Paul on their engagement! Look at them!! Have you seen a happier couple?!

Scott & Jessica' Catalina Island Wedding

September 18th, we took the 7:00am boat out of Dana Point to Catalina Island. It was a foggy morning and a bumpy ride, but after 45 mins me, my assistant - the talented Sara Wilkens, and my good friend/amazing florist Nina Wiskus (Fresh la Fleur) all stepped off onto the beautiful Island and ready for Scott & Jess' BIG DAY! The fog cleared and the harbor was amazing.

Scott and Jessica had their quaint, nautical themed wedding in the courtyard of The Landing right on the harbor, surrounded by their friends and family. It was a beautiful day, and I couldn't be happier for the two of them.

Gina & Chris' Wedding

Gina & Chris' Wedding was BEAUTIFUL! They had their ceremony in a quaint chapel in Corona Del Mar, and followed it with a reception at the Aliso Viejo County Club. We also did a day after Photoshoot at the Montage in Laguna Beach. I am so happy for them too, and was so thrilled to see everything turn out so well. Congratulations Mr. & Mrs. Kugler!!

Kathryn & Tim Wedding

Kathryn and Tim's beautiful backyard wedding was so perfect. The flowers were amazing, the food was delicious, that dancing was jiving, and their vows were precious. In planning my own wedding I often keep and eye out at the weddings I shoot for things I'd like to have at my wedding. I would love to carry over the fun and laughter from this wedding. A little hard to actually do... but I think I will strive for it. Everyone knew eachother and were having a great time. So glad I was able to be a part of it.
