Vivi + Samuel: Engaged 03/02/2013 | In Engagements, by Ray

Sam + Vivi came from Indonesia to revisit their college town of Carlsbad and had their engagement photos taken there and around San DIego. I love their energy together despite the unusually cold weather. Let’s just say that the three of us really had a great time that day. :)

Crystal + George: Indio, CA 02/21/2013 | In Weddings, by Ray

What a wedding to end my year! After have gotten engaged during Coachella, Crystal and George (who came from New Jersey) finally decided on this gem in Indio, CA as their official venue. Estancia de Bougainvillea was an absolute oasis in the middle of the hot desert on the inland empire. The best part is? It’s a private estate where a real party can go on into the wee hours in the morning. I’m beyond blessed to be trusted by Crystal + George, whom I never met until the day of the wedding, and just blend in into their inner circle to shoot what I like to shoot. Again, what a wedding to end a year!!!


Venue: Estancia de Bougainvillea, Indio, CA
Coordinator: Kaci Mallat from Hustle & Bustle Events
Caterer: New Leaf Catering
Cake: Exquisite Desserts
Florist: Desert Floral Importers
Make Up & Hair: Leann of Kelly Zhang

palm springs frank sinatra estate wedding by apertura 20 Laura + Kyle: Palm Springs, CA




I love it when a couple really commit to their true selves on the wedding day. From the amazing location at Sinatra’s house (mid-century heaven!), to their wedding day style (beehive do and green dress!), I think everything fits Laura + Kyle to the T.
