Monika + Dan //Rancho Las Lomas Wedding // Orange County

This one was an awesome wedding at Rancho Las Lomas in Silverado. I was the guest shooter for Miguel Pola, one of Orange County’s premier wedding photographer and the photog to go to if you’re Puerto Rican….because ahh, he’s Puerto Rican and he can sing and dance the Macarena.  Yup, true story.

The venue was beautiful. The bride looked gorgeous. And all the vendors did an awesome job to bring together Monika’s special day. As you can see from this epic blog post, I had a lot of fun shooting at this place.

This post is dedicated to Renn and Lang! They approached me during this wedding to tell me how much they loved the photos that I shot  at their friend’s wedding in San Francisco. It totally made my day.  🙂

Kat+Chepo Wedding| Casa Real | Ruby Hill Winery |Pleasanton, CA

Kat and Chepo had their beautiful December wedding at the Casa Real in Ruby Hill Winery in Pleasanton, CA.  The day started off with the entourage getting ready at the hotel.  The anticipation building up to their first look was just too exciting.  During the gift exchange, Kat hooked Chepo up with his very own WWE Championship belt complete with his name engraved on it!  That’s probably the best gift for a groom to date.

The wedding ceremony and reception was beautifully lit with a nice warm-toned ambiance with a very cool monogram of their “CK” theme.  Awesome wedding with awesome people.  Good job Kat!  You did a great job planning this wedding!

You may remember Kat and Chepo from their San Francisco engagement portrait session.

It’s suppose to chase the bad weather away.  It works!

The ceremony room at Casa Real Ruby Hill Winery. Niiice.

A grand entrance to the Eye of the Tiger. Winner!

Thank you to my second shooter for this awesome shot!

The slide show was a hit! More on that in the end…

If you know Chepo, you know he’s gotta do things a little different.  For the reception slideshow, Chepo laid down some dope rhymes to the beat of the classic rap song “Just a Friend.” This remix pretty much tells the story of Kat and Chepo.  From their beginnings with XPO and DOX to their proposal on the Empire state building, this is a great love story.  Check it out:
