from the first moment mark saw whitney on their wedding day, he could barely speak. he was breathless just at the sight of her. i caught him just staring at her many times over the course of the day and wiping tears from his eyes, just simply overwhelmed that he was marrying her. and she couldn’t stop grinning.
i met mark and whitney last year and i fell in love with them over sugar cookies. they held hands and giggled and shared how they wanted their wedding to be fun, vintage and just to feel like home. i was so honored to have been picked to document their big day and their vintage engagement session (see it here) only made me more excited for the wedding! they were married in the walnut grove at tierra rejada ranch in moorpark on a brisk fall day. the whole wedding party was so wonderful to hike out in the muddy pumpkin patch and into the corn field and i am so happy we went for it! i love a bride who doesn’t mind digging her heels into the mud a bit. ;) it was a really beautiful rustic wedding with great details, homestyle bbq, a swoon-worthy dessert bar, a dreamy farm backdrop and a very GIDDY couple that took center stage and laughed and danced the night away like school children. what an honor it was to witness such a sweet love…

































What a DREAM of a wedding to shoot! Don’t you just love a tilt and shift lens!? I love the slight grainyness it gives images.
