Jacqueline and Michael-Montage Resort

To say that Jacqueline and her family are absolutely lovely is the understatement of the year! I first met Jacqueline,her sis and her mom at the studio for her trial run! She envisioned soft, natural makeup and classic, romantic hair. Jacqueline is gorgeous and needed virtually nothing to bring out her beauty! They were all feminine and beautiful both inside and out! The wedding was full of love and the most beautiful feminine and classic details! Fresh whites, with soft taupes and pinks added just the perfect touch against the amazing grounds of The Montage! I loved every moment of their wedding! Congrats Jacqueline and Michael! I hope you are blessed over and over again in your marriage and life together!!

Tanya and Dylan-Santa Barbara

Tanya contacted me about a month from her big day and I was thrilled to be able to be a part of it! One of her bridesmaids Katie, was a future bride and past bridesmaid of mine. Tanya lives on the East coast so we went without a trial run. She was the sweetest most lovely bride! Her wedding was all things fabulous!!! We dolled her and her wedding party up at the Fess Parker, Santa Barbara. Sun was shining and the day was heaven! Tanya envisioned dewy, fresh skin and a little more drama on eyes. All around she wanted to stay natural. She was vision!!!! Her gorgeous gorgeous gorgeous wedding was featured on Ruffled Blog earlier this year! For more of the prettiness click here!

Katie and Gavin-Private Estate ,Palm Springs

Over the past couple years, I've had the pleasure of dolling up Katie for multiple weddings. We first met when she was bridesmaid for one of my past brides Andrea. Early last year, I was able to pretty her for another past bride Tanya and then her big day came!!!!! We started the year with their super sexy and chic engagement pics! I was so excited when she said she was dreaming of a ballet bun and dewy skin! She is a vision as is and this was an incredible look on her! Gavin and Katie live in New York and are the cutest couple ever! They tied the knot at this amazing private estate in Palm Springs. It was AMAZING!!

Mr. and Mrs. Jones!

Little did we both know when meeting at Sarah's trial run that we knew most all of the same people from college! Sarah was referred to me by her fabulous photographer Stephanie Trachy and we had no clue how much our paths must have crossed! Sarah played waterpolo at Long Beach state and she and one of her bridesmaids lived blocks from my hubby who played was on the men's team! When it came to the wedding day, we felt like old friends and I had a blast remember silly things about college with her bridesmaid Emily. We had so much fun! Sarah envisioned a plum, soft, smokey eye for the big day along with fresh dewy skin! Was she not at total stunner?!! Congratulations to the lovely Sarah and Sam!!!

Shaina and Andrew-Balboa Bay Club, Newport Beach

To say Shaina looked dreamy on her wedding day is a total understatement! She is just one of the most lovely, kind and classic brides of 2011! Shaina works and lives in New York so we worked out some of her timing around when she was going to be in California. We squeezed in her adorable "Up" themed engagement shoot in the earlier part of the year! She wanted to look soft and feminine on the big day and I think we nailed it! I knew from the start this wedding was going to be special....Shaina along with our original emails was a video of how Andrew proposed...I cried! They are so in love and so perfectly matched! Shaina loves hummingbirds and believes they are good luck! We saw hummingbird after hummingbird the day of her wedding and whenever I see them I think of her!! Huge congrats to incredibly lovely Shaina and Andrew!!!
