A Newport Beach Picnic Wedding
Southern California has an Edenic reputation. Perfect weather, beautiful beaches—there’s a lot to envy about SoCal. I should know, I was born and raised in Southern California.
SoCal nurtured a spirit of wanderlust in me. As an angsty teenager, I loved driving along the coast from Orange County to Newport Beach. I’d blare my stereo and roll down the windows, letting the salty ocean air fill my nose and lungs. I’d pull over to explore Newport and Laguna Beach, walking barefoot in the sand with camera in hand.
Southern California Beach Elopement
Now that I’m an outdoor wedding and elopement photographer, I revisit these places to celebrate and capture my clients’ most special moments.
Jenn and Dillon wanted a fall-styled, picnic wedding at a quaint and small beach in Newport Beach. That fact I’d never been to this beach, in particular, was an added delight for me. To make the wedding ceremony extra personal and special, the couple hired several amazing vendors. The end result was a stunning jewel-toned picnic complete with a lounge table, pillows, a charcuterie board, chocolate-dipped strawberries, and—of course—our smiling couple. The whole wedding experience was intimate and lovely.
Come evening, Jenn and Dillon snuggled together and silently watched the sunset. But the fun didn’t end there. This daring couple braved the waves, letting the water crash over them mid-kiss. Nothing could be cuter! Check out all the beautiful photos of their romantic beach wedding.
