I joined my good friend Mieng this past weekend in Southern California for this lovely, intimate, and relaxed wedding. Surrounded by close family and friends, it truly was a beautiful affair put on by Heather and Ektor. They held the ceremony right above Laguna Beach, and had their reception at Christaki’s. Here are a few of my favorite details and portraits from the day.

Heather put her bouquet together herself. She did a fantastic job.

I had the pleasure of witnessing one of the sweetest exchange of wedding vows this past weekend. Even though Michelle prepared hers a few days before, and Andrew prepared his 5 months before, both were so touching. Thank you both for allowing me to be a part of your special day.

I love the moment when they see each other for the first time before the ceremony.

When I shot Jessy and Larry’s engagement session in July, I knew their wedding was going to be a blast. Surrounded by their family and friends, these 2 put on a very intimate and extremely fun wedding. Here are some of my favorites from throughout the day.

After the ceremony was done, instead of the traditional walk down the aisle, they jammed down the aisle.

Not only did they walk down the aisle jamming, they made their grand entrance jamming to some Flo Rida.
