Meet the Marshalls! This is by far the largest family portrait shoot I’ve done. I have to say…at first I was a little nervous…how in the world do I pose a family of more than 25 people???? /: Despite that…this family made it easy…they were fun, laidback, goofy. You can just tell by looking at their portraits…which were taken at La Jolla Cove.

I love Christmas!!! SOOO much!!! It’s great to have a holiday to reflect on GOD’s love for us! HE loved us so much that HE sent HIS only Son to redeem us! So hope you all had a Merry Christmas and a great time celebrating the new year!
I’ve been slacking in the blog department …you know how the holiday season gets… but here are a few picture updates on what’s been going on with the Coalsons.
My baby boy being cute as ever!
What’s Christmas without “A Christmas Story”
Now what can I say about Jason and Jadah’s wedding at Coronado Beach? Jason is a very very dear friend of mine and has one of the most unique personalities I’ve ever met. He’s goofy, fun, loud…at times obnoxious…but that’s still one of the things I love about him. He’s a lover of hip hop and dances any- and everywhere, is so on fire for the LORD, and is so in love with this new wife Jadah. These two are so perfect for each other! And they are the most bomb dancing couple that I’ve seen. They actually met through dancing with Rock Steady Ministries, which Jason helps lead up at the Rock Church along with choreographer Brandon Henschel…who is seriously one of the best dancers I have ever seen!!!
So I wasn’t the official photographer at their wedding, but I thought I’d take a some portraits of them as a gift. Anyways, you have to check out their hip hop first dance video at the bottom. As you can tell by the video, this wedding was a PARTAY!!!

I posted teaser photos of Jonathon and Nikki’s wedding a few weeks back but just now have gotten a chance to post more pictures. These two are my Edward + Bella couple. Jonathon has a little bit of an Edward look to him, while Nikki’s a redhead like Bella. Anyways…they’re a gorgeous supermodel couple (:
They were married at the Rancho Bernardo Inn. I always love photographing RB Inn weddings! Gardens, water fountains, an abundance of trees, ivy laced walls…and a great staff (:
Waiting for his bride for their first glance…
Shake it like a polaroid picture!

This was a super fun crowd at a rooftop wedding I photographed at the La Jolla Cove Suites. It’s been a year since this wedding, but everytime I hear Soulja Boy’s song “Crank Dat” I still get flashbacks to this wedding. Why??? Because everyone…well not everyone…but a lot of people were synchronized dancing to it, and it was hilarious!!!
La Jolla Cove is one of my favorite places in San Diego. You have green grass, sandy beach, seals, squirrels running everywhere, sneaky seagulls, tidepools…and so much more. And at La Jolla Cove Suites, you have a lovely panoramic view of it all!

Isn’t this place breathtaking? It’s the San Diego Wild Animal Park!!! Meerkats, gorillas, cheetahs, tigers, hedgehogs…what more could you ask for? It’s a visually stunning location and its a place you and your guests will have fun at too!
Something you’ll only see at a Wild Animal Park wedding! So cute!!!

Recently I shot a wedding at the immaculate Carlsbad Sheraton for Jim and Olivia..a super rockin’ couple. Seriously they do rock! Jim’s band Deadline Friday rocked it out at the reception along with a few other bands. I loved it!!!
Beautiful lawn ceremony at the Carlsbad Sheraton! I can’t get enough of palm trees!

The Carlsbad Sheraton is an upscale wedding venue right next door to Legoland and minutes from Carlsbad beach. As a wedding photographer, I feel like I can go on and on shooting here! It’s extremely photogenic (:

Perhaps my favorite wedding photography location that I’ve seen but never photographed at is Oahu, Hawaii at the GORGEOUS Lanikuhonua, translated “where Heaven meets the Earth”. Don’t you just love the name? Lanikuhonua…it just rolls off the tongue…if you can pronounce it without stuttering (:
Lanikuhonua is nestled on the Leeward Coastline of Oahu and is right next door to my favorite luau in Hawaii…the Paradise Cove Luau. This amazing beach front wedding location is also covered with an array of coconut trees. As past clients of mine know…I LOVE palm trees!!! If I was to get married on the island, Lanikuhonua would be it!!!
So in lieu of all this… I’m extending an I LOVE LANI special to couple who are planning a Lanikuhonua wedding!!!
Please contact me for more information!

I look forward to hearing from you and creating beautiful + creative images of your wedding day (:

Thought I’d post another flashback wedding at one of my favorite San Diego locations…Levyland!!! Levyland is a private estate located at Carlsbad beach. If you’re planning a San Diego beach wedding, but want a spot that’s more private and intimate than a beach resort or hotel, then Levyland is a great wedding location. It’s private, relaxing, is steps away from the lagoon and remote beach, and has some rockin’ architecture!

It’s been awhile since I photographed a wedding in Hawaii, and I’m itchin’ to go back!!! I LOVE to travel…especially to the islands, so if anyone is planning a Hawaii beach wedding…or any Hawaii wedding for that matter…count me in!!!
These are a couple of flashback shots from a wedding back in 2007 at Luana Hills Country Club in Oahu. As you can see, that place is beautiful!!!
