Amanda and Nik…Ventura California, Eucalyptus Lane

A few weeks ago, I flew out to California to second shoot for my good friend Chelsea Elizabeth. I love going out there to shoot with her because it is a huge change from the east coast.
We met the girls at Amanda’s parents beach house that sits right on the water. Gorgeous!!!
Then we headed over to Eucalyptus Lane, a private place in Ventura. The details were so thought out. I was in love!!! The ceremony was held under this giant tree, thank goodness, because the rain came as soon as the ceremony started. Then all the guests moved into the barn to enjoy cocktails and dinner. The fire place was burning, music playing and drinks a plenty. What a perfect day!!

AACA Wedding Show wrap up

I can’t even being to tell you how amazing the AACA Wedding Show was. All the hard work, days and hours of set up…. I couldn’t have asked for a better day!
We were invited to take part in the VIP room of the bridal show where select few vendors had set up. It was open to all registrants after a special VIP treatment and presentation about wedding trends of the year by Jen Delaye, Janell Berte, David Everett, Maggie Farrell and emceed by Mike Miller.
I loved that the space was so welcoming and people kept coming back and hanging out.
I could go on and on, but I will let the images tell the story!
Big Thanks to Weddings by JDK for going above and beyond!
