Cristina & Ricardo [San Luis Obispo Wedding Photography]

Cristina and Ricardo had their wedding ceremony at St. John Neumann Catholic Church in Santa Maria with the reception at the Groom's family property in Nipomo. This was my first Spanish Catholic wedding. The really interesting part of the reception was the garter/bouquet toss. After the garter was removed, all the men at the wedding joined hands and ran around in a circle. Then they grabbed the groom and tossed him in the air before putting him down so he could toss the garter. The women also ran in a circle. Then the bride stood on a chair with her mother and mother-in-law held hands around her while she threw the bouquet. It was all very exciting!

Highway 46 and Beyond [Cambria Art Photography]

My mom and I took a drive out along Highway 46 to Cambria for the day. We stopped along the way to take some photos along the Highway, at the Cambria Pines Lodge and the beach. Here are some of my favorites from the day.

Hillary & Billy [San Luis Obispo Wedding Photography]

Hillary and Billy had a beautiful Italian rustic themed wedding at the Villa de Buena Vista in Paso Robles. The Villa de Buena Vista is a beautiful property on a vineyard with views of Paso Robles rolling green hills. Their ceremony overlooked the vineyard and the reception was in a tent on the lawn.
