Last Friday was a wonderful day.  It was a little overcast, not too hot, not too cold.  There was a rumor of rain, but it never came true!  Yes, July 11th was perfect…just like Kelly and Nico’s relationship!

 

This busy couple opted against their engagement session and had me shoot their rehearsal dinner instead.  Below is a photo at the end of the rehearsal portion.  You can see more in the slideshow from Thursday.

 

Kelly did her getting ready duties at her grandmother’s home in Pt Loma.  Her best friend Ally did her hair and makeup! (Ally is a professional in LA if you would like her info, email me!)

The gorgeous Dress!

 

Isn’t this a great wall?

I’m all for a little toast before the ceremony!  Well not for me…for the bride!

GORGEOUS?!?!?!

A little peek in to their sweet ceremony.  Both Nico and Kelly shared private writings from years ago read by their best friends.

And hello??  Isn’t NTC North Chapel adorable??

 

Having fun with Kelly’s girls!

Favorite!!  (well my first favorite!)

 

This is my other favorite!

How awesome are these square cupcakes?  It was one of the first things I saw when we walked in to the backyard of this Private Residence overlooking the San Diego Skyline and Coronado! Wow!

Get it? 7-11?  We are so clever!

Ain’t no party like a backyard mansion party!

Kelly and Nico, I feel so blessed to have met you both, you are amazing people. I hope you are enjoying the best of life in Aruba and the Carribean! 

Thank you to my clients Jeff and Kika for the referral also!  Congrats on your pregnancy and happy (almost) 1 year anniversary!!!

Thanks a ton to my awesome 2nd shooter, Melissa Koehler.  Life is so much easier when both photographers are named Melissa. haha

XOXO,

ENJOY YOUR SLIDESHOW!!!
