John and Lauren :: Shady Canyon Wedding

Lauren and John met in Florida, went to two different schools in Boston, just graduated and are now married and moving to California! Lauren is from California and John from Wisconsin. I always love hearing how couples meet, especially when they grew up in two different states. What were the chances that they would meet?!? It was obviously in the plans for John and Lauren to be together and it’s very obvious when you see them. They are so in love and so perfectly made to be with each other. I’m so glad I got to be a part of their gorgeous day!

I have to start with one of my favorites of John and Lauren taking at Shady Canyon Golf Club where the reception took place!

Lauren got ready at her parent’s house in Shady Canyon. The pool worked as a perfect background for the shoe shoot!

I remember Lauren posting a picture of her dress on facebook and loving it. It’s even more gorgeous in person!

Watching the World Cup… USA scores! They ended up losing but this was a happy moment. =)

John and Lauren decided to do a first look which made everything go so smoothly! We finished bridal party and family shots BEFORE the ceremony! We all headed straight to the reception, did some shots of the two of them with time to spare. They even got to enjoy some of the cocktail hour! Amazing!

I love this image. Actually, I think it’s one of my favorites from the day. This is Lauren’s dad and grandmother sneaking a peek of their first look. Lauren’s dad looks so proud and her grandmother’s expression is priceless.

Thanks to Kim at Irvine Presbyterian for letting me be in the front while Lauren walked down the aisle. It was completely worth it for this shot alone!
