I had only communicated with Kristin via email and phone, so it was great to finally meet her and David in person. I always hear about bridezillas, and other nightmare clients, but I just get to work with the nicest people, always! Kristin and David were great and David’s son is so cute. I’m really looking forward to their wedding next year.
I love home weddings, and luckily Jen and Chad’s wedding was at her parent’s home which is absolutely beautiful. They also were feeling stressed out over the weather forecast, but they were blessed with beautiful skies! The house was so filled with flowers and little touches, it really made it special. Congratulations, I hope you had a fabulous honeymoon!
Jen looked amazing!

I’ve been a busy girl! I was back at Paradise Gardens again for Tonya and Cody’s wedding. They had planned to do everything outside, but we had that crazy threat of rain looming over San Diego. Fortunately we were rain-free. Everything went perfect for their wedding. And Tonya and Cody were so easy to work with and very natural in front of the camera. Poor Cody had to be up super early for school the morning after their wedding, but I’m sure it was all worth it. Congratulations!
Cody waiting anxiously for the ceremony to begin:
Right after the ceremony they walked off and into the most beautiful light. They looked very angelic:
The flower girl put her flower petal holder to to good use!
Tonya was so easy to photograph!
How cute was their cake?
You have a been a BUSY girl! Beautiful pictures Chels!
The weather was perfect, everyone looked great, and the setting was beautiful. It couldn’t have been a better wedding for Amy and Ryan. Amy and Ryan are such a fun, sweet couple. You can really tell how much they care about each other and they always seem like they’re having fun together. Everything ran smoothly thanks to Michelle of Platinum Events, and of course the beautiful Paradise Gardens. Congratulations! I hope Hawaii is fabulous!
Amy’s nephew was not a willing participant in photos. But this turned out so cute!
I love how Ryan looks when he first say Amy:
Such a sweet moment during the ceremony:
I got lots of the “Ryan Face”:
Amy’s Dad after the ceremony:
We did learn after this picture was taken that ALL flower pedals must be picked up. Whoops!
I think this might be my favorite:
Amy’s sister was the MOH, and also mom to 3 young kids. I loved how she could multi-task with the bouquet and pacifier:
A serious smooch, but Ryan deserved it, he went first!
i love you guys

The pictures are beautiful! Looks like you two had a wonderful wedding! What a beautiful place! Congratulations! Love Becky
You don’t know me, but I met your mom, sister, niece and nephews on a flight out to HI. Spending time with them was a special part of my trip. I was meeting my husband in HI on his way home from Iraq. After sharing stories about our families, your mom mentioned your wedding. She was right, it was gorgeous! Everybody looks so beautiful and happy. Congratulations!

I was so excited to work at the Mission Inn in Riverside. What an amazing location. And Monica and Sal couldn’t have been a more wonderful couple. They’ve been together for 12 years! Yes 12! They’ve been dating since Monica was 15. They are so comfortable together and were so easy to work with. And the best part is, we got lots of photo time. The Mission Inn is huge and incredible. It’s definitely worth it to stay there overnight. I was especially happy to go for a swim and jacuzzi after the wedding, my poor aching bones needed it! Congratulations, enjoy your sneak peek of photos, lots more to come!
I love how classically beautiful Monica looks:
Attack of the veil!
It was great to see Fanya and Julio who’s wedding I did last year:
And my great friend Alisha with her husband Nephi. We’ve been close friends for 13 years!
They had these cool Mexican Folklore dancers during dinner:
Beautiful job Chelsea! The images are so classic and romantic. They were lucky to have you! xoxo
Wow! Chelsea you made a beautiful couple and venue look even more spectacular! They are amazing! I can’t wait to see the rest of them.
