Kristin and Trevor are an amazing couple whose wedding I photographed alongside the awesome Aimee Westcott! The couple lives in Las Vegas but often vacations here in San Diego, so it just felt *right* for them to get married here. And I knew their wedding was going to be rad after seeing the jaw-dropping images Aimee caught of them during their engagement session at the Salton Sea!
The day started off at the US Grant hotel, where both the bride and groom got dolled up. (in separate rooms!) Since they didn’t want to see each other until the ceremony, we had some fun doing a bit of a two-step when it was time for their portraits down in the lobby! From there, we headed off to Old Town for the gorgeous ceremony at the Immaculate Conception Church and for more portraits around the area. The reception was held in the intricate Don Room at El Cortez. Take a look at their special day below!
I love setting up a flash in an unexpected location, which is something I’ve learned to do from Aimee! Yes, we got plenty of natural-light images from Kristin’s suite while she got ready, but I love how she glows in this image!
Oh, the shoes! The dress! The shoes!!
One thing that struck me during this wedding was just how happy everyone was! Here, Kristin’s mom is placing the veil on her daughter, and you can see the huge smile in her eyes!
Can we say g-o-r-g-e-o-u-s??
Oh, love!
So happy to be getting married!
What’s a shoot in Old Town without some horses in at least one image??
This is why I love shooting in the Don Room! Yes, it’s REALLY dark (like, super super dark!!) but add a flash or two and BAM!
Many many congratulations to the newlyweds!
