It was a cold and rainy day… grey and cloudy, but filled with smiles and happiness.  We all hoped that the sun would come out, even if just for a little bit – we didn’t get our wish, but as it turns out cloudy rainy days are Cindy and Michael’s favorite type of day!  They embraced the day and enjoyed every moment of their wedding day.

I was personally freezing my behind off, but Cindy and Michael didn’t mind keeping each other warm with hugs and kisses during the few moments that we had to venture off into the golf course before the rain picked up again.  Thank you guys for sharing your love, your smiles, and your moments with me!

Cindy and Michael celebrated their wedding ceremony at the Northpoint Evangelical Church in Corona and their fabulous reception took place at the Eagle Glen Golf Course.

The week of Bethany and Brian’s engagement session was just grey and cold – you could tell the skies were just anxious to let it pour… I hoped that for her session it actually stayed the same and that the rain would hold off a while longer.  Mother Nature didn’t see things our way… apparently the rain doesn’t care if only have that one day to do a session – lol!  As it turns out, we had to do their session in a couple of ‘stages’.  We would take a few shots, and then run inside to wait a little longer for the rain to settle a bit.  At one point we made great use of the weather and grabbed some umbrellas – those turned out to be my favorite images from the session! 

I know I always say this – but I love getting to know my clients – I always feel blessed to be able to work with such amazing couples!!!!  Bethany and Brian are a sweet and laid back couple… I can’t wait to shoot your wedding in a few weeks!!!

You know how they say that opposites attract? … Talisa is shy, sweet, and simply adorable – James is boxes of energy just waiting to explode… together they absolutely complement each other!  Talisa calms James down; while James keeps Talisa laughing all day long.  I had so much fun wit them both on their engagement session and on their wedding day – they truly radiate happiness and you can’t help but smile when you’re around them.  Of course, their family and friends are just as fun and outgoing!  The boys (James’ groomsmen and brothers) were full of jokes and laughs… they couldn’t wait to have a blast at the reception – and Talisa’s girls were simply sweet and fabulous!!!
