Santa Barbara’s Historic El Presidio + Granada Theater | Vanessa + Joerg

Live music and laughter, lots of both. That’s what characterized Vanessa and Joerg’s wedding day. Joerg owns a record studio, JSM Records Music Production. He was playing music at his own reception party, as were many of their friends and family.

Vanessa and Joerg’s wedding ceremony was held at Santa Barbara’s Historic El Presidio Chapel. A grand party followed at another Santa Barbara landmark, the Granada Theater. Live, spontaneous music of this caliber was something rare to behold.

Congratulations, Vanessa and Joerg! Thank you!

Montecito Country Club Wedding | Charlotte and Daniel

Charlotte and Daniel got married last summer at the Montecito Country Club. The day after their wedding they moved to Philadelphia to pursue their studies in med school, she in a doctoral program for child development, he to become pediatrician. So you can imagine there were a bunch of kids at the wedding, too, which I always think is great.

While Charlotte and the girls were getting ready at the Club, Daniel and the guys jumped in their vintage Chevy Impala and took the scenic ride through town, down Shoreline Drive and Cabrillo Blvd. Charlotte and Daniel had THE most impressive first dance I have ever seen. They nailed every move of their amazing Tango performance.

Thank you Charlotte and Daniel, it was a privilege and great fun to be part of your big day!

Surfing Engagement Session | Jenneke and Phillip

Jenneke and Phillip met in school at UC Santa Barbara and Phillip taught Jenneke how to surf.  They’re both really good surfers and they thought it would be fun to incorporate the ocean in their engagement photos.  We met for an early morning session down the coast near Little Rincon.  I had such a good time with their shoot.  This was my first time photographing an engagement session in the water.  I’m excited to do more.  Thank you, Jenneke and Phillip! You rock!

Wedding in the Sunken Gardens | Jessie and Paul

Jessie and Paul live in Dublin, Ireland, where Jessie is a filmmaker, visual artist, designer and all-around creative person.  She’s also in a band, or two.  You can check out some of her work on her website Little Bricks of Inspiration. There you’ll also find links to Jessie’s other blogs and to her bands Talulah Does the Hula and September Girls.

Jessie and Paul’s friends and families arrived from near and far for their Santa Barbara Courthouse Wedding in the Sunken Gardens. Following the ceremony, a Mariachi Band tuned up and lead the way for guests to a lively reception at the Historic El Paseo Restaurant. Jessie’s wedding dress was super cool and cute. It even had pockets!

Thank you Jessie and Paul! It was a privilege to be there with you.
