A few months ago, Aimee Westcott of Captured by Aimee asked me to assist her at a fabulous wedding at Ocean View Villas near Sunset Cliffs in Ocean Beach. We met up with Kristi and her girls at The Pearl before heading over to the Villas for the ceremony. The swanky hotel provided a deliciously retro backdrop for Kristi to get ready for her big day, and you could feel the love among the group as they helped with the preparations!

I mentioned all the love floating around the room, right? Check out all the love notes that the ladies were writing to Kristi, and she was writing to them.

Since I was second shooting, Aimee let me play around with a Diana lens I have. The Diana lens produces dreamy, vintage-y images because it’s all plastic! I had fun using it to take this portrait of the girls. :)

Emilia of Sweet Emilia Jane did an absolutely gorgeous job with the details for this wedding!

Here are a few more I shot with my Diana! :)

These fun ones were shot with Aimee’s Lensbaby. Mmmm tilt shift!

Oh, hey, while you’re at it, go check out the feature from this wedding on Style Me Pretty! And here’s Aimee’s take on the day!
