Valerie + Shawn

Valerie and Shawn had an amazing wedding in Yorba Linda! Pink and black are such fun colors for a wedding day and create a deeply romantic vibe. How cute is their kid coming down the aisle? 

This wedding was full of adventures. Half my job as a wedding photographer is day of coordination. Obviously I love working with coordinators, but they aren’t always next to the bride when problems arise. I am. So, when the bridal party figured out we were missing a bouquet and the florist couldn’t, or wouldn’t, do anything about it I stepped in. I can’t just sit aside and watch brides freak out, start to tear up and almost ruin the makeup they just finished. Honestly, I couldn’t believe the florist in this case! It was so easy to take a few flowers from each bouquet to make a new one. It only took me 5 minutes. I’m not a florist so one of the bridesmaids had to help me figure it out. Sometimes the best part of my job is just making sure the bride has a relaxing and fun day. Despite the hick-up, their’s was!
