Day at the Beach

I'm back and forth between Los Angeles and San Diego right now and sometimes I feel I don't get enough of either city! It's great when I get a chance to relax with my friends ~ which I had time to do last weekend! Mark and I biked down to Ocean Beach to join our friends...we were a bit late in our arrival and missed all the water action but we did get there in time to sit, relax and watch the fog roll in! After a lazy bike ride up the river we made it back home and lounged around for the rest of the day ~ pretty much doing nothing until we headed out for Thai with our friends Jen and Galen. Dinner was fantastic!

Here is a shot of Amanda at the beach...let me tell you...she is an awesome hooper and can do 2 hoops at once with the grace of a ballerina!

Amanda and Joe relaxing ~ such a cute married couple!

Beach Wedding Hotel Del Coronado - Tom and Noel

What an amazing day at the Hotel Del! It started off perfectly cloudy (great for photos!) and then the haze burned off giving us a beautiful San Diego day!

A special thank you to Kelly and her crew at Mint Weddings and Farrah Lauren at the Hotel Del Coronado for all their wonderful work!

The lobby is gorgeous with it's dark polished wood and gleaming lights!

Noel added a beautiful and whimsical little seahorse to the back of her dress which I just loved!

I couldn't resist getting the dress with the turret in the background!

It's a flip flop San Diego beach wedding! My favorite!

Tom and his girls ~

High fives all around ~

Hotel Del Coronado Wedding Preview

I had the good fortune to shoot Tom and Noel's beautiful beach wedding at the Hotel Del this week! I love to shoot intimate gatherings with friends and family and couldn't have ask for a more sensational bride and groom! Tom and Noel are smart, relaxed and make a killer couple!

The Hotel Del Coronado now offers beach ceremonies and I can't tell you how much fun it is to shoot weddings there! The red turret is iconic!

Here is a little taste of Tom and Noel! Congratulations again you guys!
