This is going to be a MONSTER post, so consider yourself warned! :) Chris and I traveled out to beautiful San Diego California for our friends, Nate and Beth's wedding! Chris was the best man and I helped out in the photography department. :) It was a beautiful, unique and FUN wedding! Here's just a FEW of the photos I took.

 

 

 

Beth was a gorgeous and happy bride!

 

 

Bride and Groom walked back down the isle to "Good Day Sunshine" by the Beatles. It was perfect!

Love this of Beth and her brother.

And father of the bride giving Nate a handshake.

 

The fabulous bridal party.

 

Um…yeah it was a pretty and perfect spot!

 

This is one of my favorites.

Darrel, (who is married to one of the bridesmaids) my partner in crime for the day! Thanks Darrel!!!

Their ceremony was at a AWESOME Mexican restaurant!

 

The first dance.

 

The speech by the best man (my hubby).

 

I tested the limits of my camera once the sun went down, since I didn't bring my flash, when a dance contest broke out!

 

 

A huge Congratulations to Nate and Beth!!! Thank you for making us a part of your wedding and for having it in San Diego ;-)

    looks like chris is marrying the bride!!

 

I'm home and in between trips right now frantically trying to catch up. As I go through the hundreds of photos I took while in San Diego I couldn't help but share one of the view from the beach house we stayed at (I know how lucky am I?). We were there for a wedding (Congratulations Nate and Beth) which I just happen to have a few photos of ;-) I'll be sharing some of those soon!

 

By the way, would anyone like to explain to me what the heck happened with our weather while I was gone?

P.S. Voting ends tomorrow!

    I am a friend of the Father~ of the Beautiful Bride.
    The pictures you took are so Beautiful~ I think you captured
    not only the Beauty of this couple's love for one another. But also
    touched on Everything that went on..from the vows to the sandals to the dancing….You do Great Work..and should be so proud!!

 

I didn't really cart around my camera while on vaca in New York because:

1. It was crazy HOT!

2. My camera is heavy and when you're doing lots of walking, not ideal

3. I was on vaca so I was giving myself a break.

4. Did I mention it was HOT!!! (it really was).

So here's just a few photos from NY. Mostly from my day in central park.
