Elena and Oliver at La Estancia Resort

Last wedding of the year, but the weather was so good you would never know it was December. La Estancia looked fantastic as always, and Elena and Oliver are an international couple with fantastic style and poise. She is Russian, and he is from South Africa!

Michael and Michelle's Operatic Engagement

Michelle called us asking for something suitable for an opera program, as she and Michael are underwriters of the San Diego Opera. She also wanted some incredibly romantic engagement photos, a la Romeo and Juliet for their upcoming wedding. John had a lot of fun with this, as you can see! Great energy and some amazing shots. I love it!

Joy and Brennan at The Lodge at Torrey Pines

You remember Joy and Brennan's cool photo shoot in Balboa Park for their engagement? Well, here are some images from their equally fabulous wedding at The Lodge at Torrey Pines, which is always one of John's favorite places to shoot. Joy had yellow flower motif, which is somewhat unusual and I think magnificently done by Ana Aftahi of Floral Works. The details were handled beautifully as always by Laura Rizzo of Events by Design. The flowers are being featured in the upcoming issue of The Knot Southern California!
