Stephanie and Nathan got hitched at the beautiful Rancho Capistrano out in San Juan Capistrano. I came along as a second photographer for Gavin.

I love Stephanie’s ring and dress.  It’s simple… yet so elegrant and classy.  Look at how the diamond sparkles!

Here is my favorite picture from the preparation.

Here comes our beautiful bride.  Stephanie has an amazing smile… but what’s even better is the smile on Nate’s face when he saw his bride for the first time during the day.

It had rained the night before so the clouds have passed and left a clear blue sky with gently breezes. WOW!!!  Beautiful day… lovely couple… astounding wedding… what more can we ask for?

And here it is… their really looooonnnng  first kiss!  =)  What can you say – when two people are in love… they are not afraid to show the world!

Stephanie and Nate really are a beautiful couple!  I can’t stop saying “beautiful” because really… everything about their wedding was beautiful!  Pictures were really important to Stephanie and so she allotted plenty of time for us to take pictures of them around the venue. You can see more of their couple pictures here.

Stephanie and I call this the “broccoli” tree.  It looks like a giant broccoli. Great for photos.

I thought it was really cool that they had a grand exit and send off.  Throwing of flower petals followed by driving off in a classic Rolls Royce is a perfect way to end the night.

These are my two favorite pictures from the night.  I love how it has the old classic look.

Congrats Stephanie and Nathan!!! Thank you for planning the perfect wedding! It was such a pleasure to work with you both.  Have fun in Hawaii…
