Oak & the Owl: Downtown San Diego Wedding

I was honored to be a part of this gorgeous San Diego wedding this past February. The bride is a former Wedding Chicks employee who I got to know last year when she and I worked together on a couple of shoots for WC. She is the sweetest woman, and she and her groom have such a wonderful love story. Their kiss at the end of their ceremony was their first ever. Yes, that’s right… Their first EVER. I wrote about it in a previous blog post, but it was a beautiful moment to witness. This was also the first time I had the chance to work with Bryce Covey. His work is so stunning I had an impossible time editing down this post. There are lots, and lots, of beautiful images to feast your eyes on. And with a bride and groom as insanely gorgeous as this couple, how could anyone not share all of these?

The bride wanted a winter feel to her wedding and opted for rich jewel tones of red and purple, paired with silvery greens. I loved this color palette as it was so much fun working with such bold colors. I used seasonal materials of amaryllis, ranunculus, anemones, raspberry branches, and dusty miller. Then of course flowers that are always in season, imported garden and standard roses, and the most beautiful variegated spray carnations. I dare anyone to look at those beauties and say they can’t get in line with carnations. ;-)

I hope you enjoy these images as much as I do! They were also featured on The Wedding Chicks which is always a wonderful treat! xo
