I’m so excited to post this wedding of one of my favorite 2011 couples, Adam and Ashley! I first met them at their Boston engagement session. They live outside of Boston and every person from the wedding was from out East. One thing that made this wedding special is that I left feeling like a friend, not a vendor. Brenda and I even went to a Padres game with the group the next day! I wish these two lived on this coast!! I also adore mid-week weddings, this one was on a Tuesday!
Brenda Swann did all of the design for this wedding. Ashley really put her trust in Brenda and the details were so beautiful!

Nikki is my college roommate and has probably made more appearances on my blog than anyone else! I’ve been shooting her family since Addy was born! They recently moved to Seattle and we were having trouble finding a time to do their family photos for the year. We had given up when I found out I had a 6 hour layover on my way to Maui last month! Voila! They picked us up from the airport and took us to the adorable area near their home, in Fremont. We wandered around the neighborhood and I drooled over all the beautiful Fall colors!

Erin is probably the sweetest person you would ever come in contact with. From how she talks to you to how she acts. Eric is her perfect match, shy and quiet but very much in love with Erin. I just love how they look at each other. Their wedding day was hot! The guys limo had a broken AC yet zero complaints from Eric. He just wanted to marry the love of his life. W decided to do their first look at the Pt Loma Lighthouse. We were rushed for portraits there but I am very happy with the time we had. Their ceremony was at Luscomb Point, Sunset Cliffs with a reception following at The Thursday Club. Much like Erin & Eric, their entire wedding was a class act! I loved hearing all her families Irish accents too!



I love the moment just after the first look.

I am officially addicted to the iPhone app, Instagr.m! It takes your normal phone photos and allows you to easily put filters over them to make them look more artsy. I’ve been taking way more photos of every day life now that I have this ability. 2011 has been an amazing year and I cannot wait to see what 2012 has in store for me! Merry Christmas to all of my awesome blog readers, I appreicate each and every one of you!

I love hanging out with these two! They love to laugh, just like me! We had a blast chasing the sunlight at their Torrey Pines engagement session, ending down on the beach with a gorgeous orange sunset. I am stoked for their wedding in July!
