A fun family session at the Santa Monica Pier.  Love Reagan’s adorable smile!

I could not be happier for these two! Nina and Wilson are two people who are near and dear to my heart, and it was extra special for me to be a part of their day as their photographer.

There were so many fun and memorable moments from their wedding day! Nina & Wilson carried bright yellow balloons to cover their faces as they walked to meet each other for their first look. As they met in the middle of the bridge, they released the balloons to see each other! They also had guests sign Jenga pieces instead of a traditional guest book. When it came time to exchange rings, their best man jokingly handed over ring pops…before handing over their real wedding rings. And of course, the whole bridal party entered the reception to the tune of “Call Me Maybe!”

Oh, and can you believe Nina handmade all the bridesmaids’ dresses?!  Amazing!

Congrats, Wilson & Nina! I am sooo happy for you two!

I photographed Becky & Richard’s wedding a couple of years ago and now they have a little one!  We did this maternity session about a week before she gave birth.  So exciting to see their family grow!

So much to love about this session – an amazing couple, a beautiful location, and some fun red heart balloons!
