San Clemente Beach Wedding [Katie + Matt] / San Clemente Wedding Photographer

06.19.19

I’ve been photographing these beautiful people for a few years now and it was such a huge honor to document their wedding!

This beautiful and intimate day was shared with their closest friends and family. It was all about celebrating their amazing love and bonding their family into one.

There was so many incredible moments in their day. From the awesome beach get-away car, the heart-warming connection between the Bride and her adorable daughter, the Maid of Honor taking in her best friend getting married, the way the Bride and Groom lit up when they were next to each other and their special group of loved ones cheering them on. It couldn’t have been more perfect!

Thank you Katie and Matt! I am SO happy for you all! Looking forward to capturing you all for years to come!

XO, Jessica

Spring Mini-Session [The Schilling Family] / San Juan Capistrano Family Photographer

03.26.19

Wow, it has been SO long since my last blog post! I had to start it up again with this beautiful family that I’ve been photographing since their engagement session five years ago! Now with baby Macy James (MJ) in the picture, my photo shoots with them have just gotten better!

This session was held last weekend during my Spring Mini Sessions. I just love this time of the year when the mustard fields are in full bloom and with all of the recent rain, it’s been extra beautiful! Add in a super gorgeous family and you have MAGIC!

Thank you Schilling Family for choosing me time after time to capture your family’s milestones and love. Until next time!

XO, Jessica
