I simply adore charming backyard weddings and this one was one of my favorites. Nicole had a vision of what she wanted her wedding to look like, she spent months planning out the sweet details to create the cutest backyard garden wedding Claremont you had ever seen.

Nicole and Gary made all of the decor for their creative garden wedding in Gary’s Mom’s backyard where he grew up. The shabby chic, and colorful props were darling and everyone commented on how beautiful this Claremont garden was.

Nicole and Gary took all of their romantic photos before the wedding ceremony because they wanted to enjoy each moment they had with their family and friends.

Here is a sneak peek into this darling backyard garden wedding in Claremont.

Enjoy them and please let me know if you need a wedding photographer and I would love to work with you.

Rachael + Kevin

Rachael + Kevin met while attending college at Loyola Marymount University in Los Angeles. They would often spend their time on the beaches of Marina Del Mar with their friends talking about classes and what they wanted for their future. Their love story grew stronger and one day on the view that over looks the city they both said those sweet words " I Love You" from this point on these Loyola Marymount University students were attached at the hip. One beautiful, sunny day, Kevin asked Rachael to marry him and their fairytale wedding story began. They were married in the beautiful Sacred Heart Chapel at Loyola Marymount University and it was the most beautiful wedding ceremony.  Next, the fun was going to happen at the families horse ranch in Azusa. The Rainbow Canyon Ranch was transformed into a wedding fairytale dream. Each and every single detail was hand picked by the bride, groom and their families. It was such a beautiful sight to see. When you entered Rainbow Canyon Ranch you were greeted by a horse dressed up as a unicorn, beautiful and colorful decor, market lights, and all the amenities you need while attending a wedding reception outdoors. This family thought of everything.. It was a magical evening under the stars and all attendees enjoyed themselves. We are so happy for this beautiful and sweet couple and we wish them the best...

Yolanda & Adrian

Yolanda and Adrian were the sweetest couple. The moment that Yolanda and I met we instantly connected. I knew her dream wedding to Adrain was going to be perfect. The beautiful ceremony was held at St. Denis Catholic Church in Diamond Bar. This church is stunning. I always enjoy photographing weddings at St. Denis. The architecture is so beautiful and the photos always turn out amazing.

Next we headed off to the Double Tree By Hilton Claremont for the fun filled reception complete with horse and carriage rides of the guests during the cocktail hour. The guests enjoyed this very special treat.

The evening at the Doubletree By Hilton Claremont was filled dancing, food and friends. The guests loved the decadent candy table and the  gorgeous cinderella cake.

Yolanda and Adrian danced the night away and truly had the time of their life. I wish them so much happiness and joy. 

Padua Hills Wedding

Devon + Gerard

We kicked off 2016 with this gorgeous Padua Hills Theatre wedding. Devon and Gerard met at work and fell madly in love. They exchanged vows at a gorgeous evening wedding ceremony in the hills of Claremont at the historic Padua Hills Theatre. Their wedding planner Linsey helped them create their magical wedding they had dreamed of and each and every detail was beautiful. It was a joy to witness Devon and Gerard celebrate their marriage with their closest family and friends.
My team and I love working with Padua Hills Theatre, featuring Chantrelles Catering. We have worked with them for over 20 years and they never disappoint to provide an extraordinary experience to their clients.
We wish Devon and Gerard so much love and look forward to watching their family grow. Here is a look into their Padua Hills wedding day. Enjoy. xo

Doubletree by Claremont Wedding

Briana + Eric

This Doubletree by Hilton Claremont wedding was so much fun. Briana and Eric are so sweet. I fell in love with Briana the moment I met her. That smile of hers just melts your heart and speaking of hearts, Briana has the biggest heart and I know that is why Eric fell head over heels in love with her. This couple chose one of my favorite Claremont venues to hold their wedding and reception. The Doubletree by Hilton Claremont has everything you need to have an amazing wedding experience. The courtyard and fountain are beautiful for your ceremony and the banquet rooms are spacious and well desinged. Bonus you get to have the amazing Doubletree staff to handle all of your needs. I love working with and being part of the Doubletree by Hilton Claremont team. Briana and Eric’s fall wedding was gorgeous. The weather was perfect and everyone had a blast. Take a peak into the day.
