Cupertino Wedding Photography // Christy & David

When a Bride tells me that she’s going to be wearing mint shoes on her Wedding Day, well, let’s just say that gets me pretty excited! It means, she cares about details. I love details. As in LOVE details. They say so much about a couple. They truly tell their own little stories on a day that brings it all together…

Christy & David live in Texas and even though we didn’t get the chance to meet prior their Big Day, I felt an instant connection. Maybe because we have the same believes, maybe just because we’ve emailed a lot.

Enough chatter, let me share with you their beautiful love story. Enjoy ♥

Thank you Christy & David for letting me witness your love. I’m so happy with and for you for being Mr & Mrs now! I wish you only the very best for your future and may God bless you and keep you safe.

xoxo, Rahel ♥

Laguna Beach Wedding Photography // Natalie & Damian

Telling the story of a couples Wedding Day is truly my passion and I was excited to finally get the 2013 season started with this gorgeous Laguna Beach Wedding at the Surf & Sand Resort.

Natalie has such a great taste. The bridesmaid bouquets were made out of succulents and don’t even let me start gushing over the dress! Made by the Australian Wedding Dress designer Anna Campbell, it was a true piece of art. Perfect for a beach wedding with that extra sparkle.

These two make such a wonderful couple. During Damian’s speech I teared up like a big old baby and was more than thankful to be able to hide behind my camera…

Thank you Natalie & Damian so much for having me there with you to document your Big Day! Such an honor. I wish you both all the very best in your future as husband and wife!

xoxo, Rahel ♥

Out of the Office

The waiting for this year’s Wedding Season is finally over. In just a few minutes I will be leaving Gilroy to head down south to document Natalie & Damian’s Big Day in Laguna Beach! I have a feeling that it’s going to be such a wonderful day. Later next week – on the 8th to be exact – Adrian and I will celebrate our three year anniversary together! Crazy how fast time goes by. I think we will go to Lake Tahoe for a quick trip and if the weather plays along, go for a horse back ride! Excited!

I will be trying to answer emails as much and quickly as I can within the next two weeks, but please forgive me if you don’t hear back within the usual 48 hours…

Happy Weekend everyone!

Introducing: Bride to Bride

Flash back almost exactly three years – Adrian and I had less then two weeks til our Big Day! Gosh, we were excited! And somewhat exhausted. I had an ugly burn on my hand from making table decorations with my pink little hot glue gun and while we were super excited to finally be married (we had been waiting for this day for years while being in a long distance relationship…) we just wanted to get it over with and enjoy our honeymoon in Hawaii.

I’ve definitely learned a lot about planning a Wedding then, but I’ve gained so much more experience from working as a Wedding Photographer that I’ve decided to share my knowledge with you. You know, from Bride to Bride ♥

San Luis Obispo Photography

Adrian surprised me with a little road trip down to San Luis Obispo last weekend. We love to explore and spend time together driving down random roads. By the time we got to Pismo, all ‘normal’ camping sites were full and so we spent the night on the beach. Way cool.
