This Photo of the Week is a throwback to the 1940s. While arranging their engagement shoot at Gillespie Air Field, Emily and Rafael received permission from the nice people at Air Group One to take photos with this vintage aircraft. They decided to play up the theme with retro clothing, hair and make-up. The resulting photo is something to flip your wig over :)

Here in San Diego, we are fortunate to have a selection of world-class museums within driving distance. Many of these museums also double as eclectic and distinctive wedding venues. For example, the Contemporary Museum of Art in La Jolla is a standout wedding location, with its abundance of artistic backgrounds, modern aesthetic, and edgy design. Whenever we photograph here, we like to incorporate the museum’s vibrance into the wedding day photos as much as possible.
In preparation for Vanessa and Len’s wedding, we discovered this unique, modern wall of the Museum tucked away in a corner of the reception. As you’ll see in the photo below, we framed the lines around our couple, and added a single backlight of flash for contrast. This added drama and intensity to a quiet and intimate moment, and resulted in our Photo of the Week :)

Kristin and Ryan were married at the historic Boettcher Mansion in Golden, Colorado. The wedding featured a gorgeous onsite chapel, an outdoor banquet table, live music, and a mouthwatering dessert station. It was a beautiful event at an extraordinary Colorado wedding venue.
As photographers, we were swept away by the site’s distinctive sandstone formations, abundant forests, and dramatic blue skies. To make the most of our surroundings, we captured a first kiss photo at the nature reserve nearby. As you’ll see below, it was “naturally” amazing.
