Rebekah and Christopher are Marines. They had a little civil ceremony to officially tie the knot awhile back, but wanted a special day to acknowledge their marriage in the presence of family and friends. And I was the lucky one to have the opportunity to photograph it! I LOVE Wayfarer’s Chapel in Rancho Palos Verdes. I shot another wedding here. What a beautiful venue…seriously! Who could ask for anything more beautiful than a glass chapel?! The amazing Stephanie Bowden of Stephanie Joy Photography joined me in photographing this sweet wedding.

Rebekah’s sisters and sister-in-law were her bridesmaids.




I am so glad Stephanie grabbed this beautiful shot!

We headed over to Old World in Huntington Beach for a lively reception, I tell you. Lots of games and fun at this one!

Josh’s cutie girlfriend, Kristen, came along for smile support and some shots with Josh. And she gave him that striped shirt…


It was very cute, Josh’s mom was with us and she kept wanting him to do “that thing” that he does that is so cute. Josh acted like he didn’t really know what “that” was…until I walked down the street with him and said, “Come on Josh, what does your mom think is so cute? Ya gotta do it for her!” Well here it is. Sometimes we moms just need that “thing” caught on camera! You all grow up too fast and we want to hold on to those sweet memories of our babies :)
Desiree, Josh, thank you! I had a blast with you! Congrats Josh on your graduation! Hugs to you all!




You know what’s weird? When I TOOK this picture on the right, I got tears in my eyes from how beautiful it was. Not like, wow, I am so good! Look at the picture I took! There was just so much love, it made me tear up :)
