Engagements: Alicia & Ramon

Alicia and Ramon decided on the Santa Barbara Botanical Gardens and Butterfly beach for their engagement photos. We had a fun afternoon checking out the locations and (accidentally) getting hit by a few rogue waves at the beach. Congratulations on your May 2014 wedding!

Engagements: Claudia & Eddie

I got to photograph Eddie and Claudia for their engagements on a warm early September day. We put up with the bugs attacking us and managed to get some really nice shots at the Butterfly Reserve and then Haskell's beach in Goleta. Congratulations you two!

Wedding: Ernestina & Gabriel

Ernestina and Gabriel's wedding day was 10 years in the making as they'd been together since they were teenagers. Their wedding was held at Our Lady of Guadalupe Church and the reception followed at El Paseo restaurant, both in Santa Barbara. We stopped inbetween to get some shots at the courthouse (one of my favorites shooting locations) and also in a courtyard near El Paseo. Everything went so smoothly on their day and their relaxed and easy going attitudes made it so enjoyable to be with them. Congratulations!!
