Carie and Steve's Wedding, the awesomest Angel-fan couple EVER!

If you remember from a previous blog, Steve, Carie and I, with special hook-ups cause they are rockstars, got to take their engagement photos in the Angel Stadium on the field. (check out the included pic at the bottom)
I love this couple! Usually I speak with couples before the wedding on the phone about details, but Steve and Carie came over to my studio, and we chatted, drank some Chimay, ate some cheese, and had a great time. I can't wait for them to come back from their honeymoon so we can hit up an Angel Game! (Steve is a die-hard fan...Carie, well, lets just say she prefers another team of the same colors back East...)
The wedding was SUPER fun. There was a giant tour surfer bus that drove us all around San Juan and Dana Point. We had a three hour break between the ceremony and reception, so i encouraged them to stop and Pedro's for the best Carne Asada tacos this side of the border. We got some fun pics there, and then finished up at this killer old school mansion in Fountain Valley. The best part of the day, was when we recreated a VERY sentimental shot of Carie's grandparents wedding. I let Steve borrow my hat, and took this awesome neo-retro shot. Carie cried her eyes out when she saw it, and it was truly moving to see her so happy!
Thanks you two for a sweet wedding!

Just plain striking in a Catherine Zeta-Jones Classic kinda way...


Ah Pedro's! Ole!


Mmm...






This could be my favorite shot of the day. I loved this old house. It was shaded perfectly and made a great backdrop with her vintage dress.






This is my favorite moment of the day, as we were walking through the Orange Grove.


Steve looks like a stud with the hat!


Here is the picture Carie gave me a few weeks back of her grandparents. She said she wanted a shot exactly like this.


And the new version...


The had one of the best Barry White Choreographed first dances i have ever seen! The guests loved it and it made for some truly awesome photos!
