Mary and Patrick are engaged!

I cannot wait!!! Mary and Patrick are getting married at the Bahia in October!
I met Mary while both of us were working at Sea World. I met Patrick the first time I did a wedding consultation with the two of them. They are a great match!

I finally got to photograph their engagement pictures, which I’m always really excited about!
We decided to start off downtown for some head shots and fun candids. Then we went over to Mission Bay for some sunset pictures. Mary and Patrick live near the bay so its a big part of their lives.

Since their dog Lily plays a major role in their life too, she got to come along and join in the action! Lily manages to add a LOT of personality to the images.
See for yourself:)

What’s also really cool about this couple…. Patrick Finucane, is running for city council! Listen to what he has to say….

“As a citizen of one of the most attractive cities in America, I am both amazed by the beauty of San Diego and disappointed in the failings of our city government. I am running for city council because I am not only passionate about keeping our neighborhoods clean and safe, but also ensuring that the natural resources and beauty of San Diego are protected and preserved for future generations. By working together, we can prevent special interest groups from controlling local government, demand accountability from City Hall, and set up the long term planning that will improve and protect San Diego’s future. I hope you will join me in this fight.” ~Patrick Finucane

Wedding at Sheraton Harbor Island

Hi Friends!

Sorry I haven’t had any new blog posts lately… it’s been a crazy month. We’ve been very busy with photography events and we are also in the process of creating a couple of new websites… one for my business and a new website for the San Diego Weddings of Distinction group that I’m in. Keep your fingers crossed!

Anyway, one of my recent weddings was shooting for Xavier Bailey. Thanks Xavier, you’re so much fun to work with!
This wedding was at the Sheraton Harbor Island. Now you may notice that the pictures are mostly of the groom, Chris. I met up with the guys ahead of time to photograph their “getting ready” and some fun portraits.
Chris and Mary decided on doing a first look, which I am definitely a fan of!!! It’s a magical moment where It’s just the two of them with out the pressure of being in front of a large audience. First, the little flower girl delivered a card to him and then Mary arrived. Chris was speechless.
The ceremony at the Sheraton Harbor Island was a private little spot tucked away and right near the marina. I love the ocean so anytime there is a wedding by the water, I’m there!!!
As always, the flower girl and ring bearer are soooo cute.. and there not even trying!
