Callie+Andrew: The Fig House, LA

Callie+Andrew were super chill on their wedding day - they focused on their love, their family and their friends which is exactly how it should be! They hired a slew of talented artists as their vendors to sweat the small stuff for them and create a visually epic event.

They left it to their amazing wedding planner, Lauren of Lavender Grey Events, to play up the mid-century colorful geometric vibes of the Fig House (and boy did she ever....I mean that backdrop, come on...) Radical flowers by Pixies Petals took it all to the next level. They had a whiskey tasting room, a tattoo bar, a cake topper that referenced one of the best episodes of Parks and Rec ("Treat Yo Self!") and the food and cocktails were just top notch. I love working with these kick ass vendors!

Melisa+Bernie: Wayfarers Chapel, Palos Verdes

To be totally honest, I don't typically enjoy photographing church ceremonies only because they tend to be dark...for Melisa+Bernie's day, this was not the case! Wayfarers Chapel in Palos Verdes by architect Frank Lloyd Wright is on pretty much every SoCal wedding photographer's dream venue list. The light pouring in and the geometric elements are just absolutely unbeatable!!
