A modern wedding ceremony in sunny Southern California with loved ones… “It is everything I have been dreamed about,” said bride Candy upon entering… The colors are the keys to set the mood.

In the picturesque coastal region of Cinque Terre, Italy, where colorful buildings gracefully cling to rugged cliffs overlooking the sparkling Mediterranean Sea, two souls embarked on an enchanting journey of love. This intimate elopement was a celebration of passion and beauty, with the bride adorned in an alluring Afarose wedding dress, and the groom looking dapper in a timeless beige suit. Against the stunning backdrop of warm-toned buildings and tranquil waters, their love story unfolded in a breathtaking display of romance.

10 years ago I used to joke with all my friends that they’d know who to call when the time came for them to get married. We were so young and I was still just learning photography, so the joke didn’t really mean much. But 10 years later April actually took me up on my offer and I’m so glad that she did.
