Kevin + Melissa - Wedding - Fullerton Ca

There are certain aspects of different weddings that tend to really stick out to us, and we always remember those things when we look back at all the great weddings we have photographed. But Kevin and Melissa’s wedding, EVERY aspect of the day really stuck out.

The day started out pretty casual at Melissa’s house. She had laid out her dress, her shoes, and all her accessories. As we started we also met the videography team from Yours Truly Media, and we hit it off with them right away. And that was only the beginning of a really fun day with them.

We all headed over to All Souls Church in the city of Alhambra. It was a really big beautiful church. The staff there was very welcoming and we had so much fun capturing the beauty of the old cathedral. When the ceremony was over we headed over for a little treat. Melissa wanted to stop by her old work at Fosselmans Ice Cream in Glendora. It was such a cute place to start their photography session. The ice cream parlor has been open for over a hundred years now, it was really awesome to photograph in a place like that with so much history!

We finally headed down to Downtown Fullerton where they were going to have their reception at Villa Del Sol. This was our first time photographing at Villa Del Sol, and we were completely taken back by how beautiful this venue was. We took our time to play around and find awesome places in the venue to take some photos before we hit the streets of Downtown Fullerton for a little session on the streets.

Gino from Euphoric Events Entertainment was our DJ for the night, and man did he get the night started! He kept everyone on their feet all night, we had so much fun dancing with everyone and capturing all of Kevin and Melissa’s family and friends having the time of their lives!

Also had an excellent experience working with the videography team at Yours Truly Media.

Tyler + Courtney - Wedding - Rancho Cucamonga Ca

Tyler and Courtney had a beautiful backyard wedding that couldn’t have come together any better. The wedding was held in a beautiful house in the Redhill Country Club area overlooking the beautiful city of Rancho Cucamonga.

I could go on about how perfect everything went from beginning to end, and it did! These two are perfect, and they made sure their wedding was nothing less than, but the reception was one of the most memorable events for us! They had a local band play the night away, and one of the highlights was when Tyler and his friends took over the band to play some of their own hits!

We are so excited for Tyler and Courtney to start their lives together and are so happy we got to share this awesome day with them!

Darren + Alisha - Wedding in Temecula Ca

There was something about the way Darren and Alisha would look at each other, and you knew they could see their future together. Just being around them, we could see their future together, and their future looked so good!

We started this beautiful day at The Peltzer Winery located in the middle of Temecula Valley Wine Country. Hidden away from all the chaos of the big cities, this was a perfect venue for Darren and Alisha to celebrate their big day.

Everything went as planned, both parties enjoyed each other’s company while getting ready. This venue has no shortage of great areas to photograph, so we picked out a little hidden area overlooking the winery to have them do their first look. They were both so excited to see each-other for the first time and get out some of those wedding day nerves.

The rest of the day could not have gone better. Darren and Alisha said their I Do’s as the sun set behind the winery groves, and the guests were ready to eat and dance the night away. We had an amazing time spending the day with these two, we are excited to watch them grow together and see where life takes them!

Felipe + Dolores - Wedding - Huntington Beach, CA

We are very fortunate to meet and photograph some of the greatest couples in the world, Felipe and Dolores are no exception. From the day we met, we felt instantly connected to them. They also put together a beautiful wedding at the Newland Barn in Huntington Beach. It was our first time photographing and this amazing outdoor venue. 

Their ceremony took place under a homemade alter, decorated with a floral arrangement. It complimented the greenery over looking the blue sky behind them. The Newland Barn grounds had several places for us to explore and find great locations for their family and bridal party photos. We also walked their beautiful garden and loved their use of space to create intimate moments with our couple. 

We loved watching Felipe be with and enjoy his new wife! When we were done with photos we set ourselves up for their grand entrance. Felipe and Dolores walked down the path to a warm welcoming from their friends and family. The sun was already setting, and the strung lights were lit, which made for a very romantic setting as they danced their first dance.

There were so many amazing details. From the beautiful table decor, the vintage furniture displayed, the fun lawn games and their caterer baking hot pizzas on the spot for everyone to enjoy! We had an incredible time with these two and truly enjoyed every part of their big day!

Crystal + Andres - Wedding - Long Beach, Ca

The Queen Mary was once a benchmark for elegance and luxury traveling across the Atlantic Ocean, filed with the richest and most famous people during its time. This beauty and elegance is what drew Crystal and Andres to have their wedding on California’s historic ship. This 40’s themed wedding could not have taken place in a better setting. Crystal and Andres took us back to a much simpler time, and you really felt like you were in a different world with all the attention that went into the details. Crystal and her girls were gowned head to tow in the most beautiful vintage style, while Andres and his groomsmen were perfectly groomed and dapper.

The weather was perfect, and we had the deck to ourselves with an incredible view of Downtown Long Beach as our backdrop for Crystal and Andres’ first look. We love being able to capture these moments with our couples. The first look is an incredibly intimate moment, and watching these two share that time together, and talk with each other before the ceremony, and before anyone else sees them has always been one of our favorite moments.

We felt so honored to have been part of their big day. I (Ulices) have known Crystal since the 3rd grade. There is a very powerful feeling of joy and happiness we get from being able to share these special moments with people we have grown up with our entire lives. Crystal and Andres have a beautiful relationship, they were surrounded by so much love and support and we had the best time dancing, laughing and capturing their day.
