Danni + Jordan | Hawaiian Destination Wedding | Part 1/2

In August of 2016, we had the pleasure of capturing our real, first destination wedding in Hawaii. This is part 1 of 2 - the next blog post will feature their California Desert Reception!

First off, we would like to give a huge shoutout to Jordan + Danni and ALL of their family and friends who served us so graciously and kindly and allowed us to experience this amazing day.

Jake and I had strong desires to go back to Hawaii (where we celebrated our one year anniversary) but didn't think it would work out this last year. That's when Danni messaged me and told me their original wedding venue (by our homes in CA) wasn't going to work out anymore and they had plans of finding one in Hawaii. WHAT?! I was trying not to get my hopes up in case it didn't happen. But it did. They found the most incredible venue - The Secret Island in Kualoa Ranch, Kaneohe, HI.

Enough of me talking, check out some pictures of their amazing destination shore-side ceremony, and don't forget to check out the next blog featuring their beautiful backyard reception!

Also, Ricky Farris did their wedding video, which you can see here!

Orcutt Ranch Engagement Session | Ciera + Stephen

Steven and Ciera were such an enjoyable couple to be around.  So easy-going, yet certain of their desires.  They had just been engaged a couple of days when we shot their engagement and Ciera had already gotten her dress, chosen their colors, and sealed the venue, etc!  

This shoot took place in West Hills as we ventured throughout the Valley just after a few rain-showers which finally gave us some green out here - so we took advantage of the rolling hills!

Enjoy, and stay tuned for pictures of their wedding coming up in August!
