From the minute I met this couple, I was hoping they would retain me to shoot their wedding. April and Eric have the sweetest, easiest going personalities and I fell in love with, not just them, but April's parents too! Although I didn't get to met Eric's parents until the wedding, the entire family is so warm, funny and loving. I'm almost sad this event is over because I'm not ready to not be chatting with them anymore! lol I hate having to "break up" with my couples after I deliver their final prints and albums. Does that sound funny? I guess that's how much I love my clients. Thank goodness for maternity and new born sessions... no pressure guys!




























April and Eric got married last week at the beautiful Calamigos Ranch in Malibu. It was a beautiful, outdoor ceremony with wisps of fog rolling through. They gave me the time before-hand for some first-look and bridal party portraits. This always gives me time to create some great images in great light.



April's mom and sis-in-law helped her get ready...



And I love the first look with her dad... amazing moments...









It was so sweet the way April kept looking toward her parents...







Some of my favorite parent-dance pix...
