Stylish and Sophisticated Engagement Photo Shoot in Downtown San Diego

By, March 20, 2012

We had a lot of fun with this stylish couple on their downtown San Diego engagement shoot. Typically, when our brides and grooms ask about what to wear during an engagement photo shoot, we suggest a casual ensemble in addition to a fancy, “date night” outfit. But since Chris wears a three-piece suit nearly every day, and Julie is most comfortable in heels, they ditched the casual attire and dressed to impress! 

Chris and Julie met while working at the Andaz Hotel (formerly the Ivy) in downtown San Diego. We thought we’d photograph the happy couple at the place where it all started! We headed down to the hotel on F and 7th, where we photographed them in the glamorous lobby, and on the rooftop pool deck at night! We then hit up the Omni Hotel, where we captured a few fun photos on the bridge that connects the hotel to Petco Park. We also made sure to get a nighttime kissing photo underneath the Gaslamp sign, which was a special request from the groom-to-be! 

We had had a blast with Julie and Chris, and we can’t wait to photograph their wedding at the Bahia Resort this fall!  Make sure to scroll down to take a look at some of the photos we captured during this engagement shoot, and don’t forget to leave us a nice little comment below!

Amazing Race Winners Throw First Pitch at Padres Game

By, September 28, 2011

In the past two years, I have traveled around the world on the Emmy-winning reality show The Amazing Race, gotten engaged, hired the best wedding photographers in San Diego (True Photography), joined the True team, and married my best friend.  It’s been quite an adventure, and it’s not going to stop any time soon! 

Ever since The Amazing Race, we’ve gotten so many great opportunities in the community we grew up in, including the honor of throwing out the first pitch at the Padres game this past Monday night!  We even hung out in the press box with Hall of Fame legend Tony Gwynn and Padres commentator Mark Grant.  Being a huge baseball fan, Aaron Feldman, founder of True Photography, was there to photograph the exciting event.  Having Aaron catch the play-by-play with his camera was like a post-wedding shoot at Petco Park, right across the street from where our wedding was photographed at the Hard Rock Hotel earlier this year.

For all the brides out there, I’m here to tell you – life keeps getting better after marriage. There is no one else I would rather share my adventures with!  We’re so glad that True Photography was there to capture the occasion, and of course, to be a part of such an exciting night.

Ultimate Wedding Experience at the Ultimate Skybox

By, September 21, 2011

This week, we are excited to put the spotlight on an amazing San Diego wedding venue – the Ultimate Skybox! Located on the top floor of DiamondView Tower in downtown San Diego, the Ultimate Skybox offers a beautiful aerial view of Petco Park. The venue also has sensational views of  the San Diego skyline, the Bay, and Coronado. The modern vibe, intimate atmosphere, and prime location always results in unique and breathtaking images!

Take a look below at a handful of photographs we put together from the Ultimate Skybox, and visit our website to check out more photos from this top venue!

The venue provides plenty of photo ops, including occasions when brides and grooms rent a double-decker bus to transport guests to the celebration.  We also love photographing the gorgeous, rooftop ceremonies, surrounded by wide open sky.

Especially for baseball fans, its hard to beat a view like the Ultimate Skybox.  We often take our brides and grooms down to the ball park to get some great photos during baseball games.  Our wedding couples always have a blast being smack dab in the middle of the buzz at Petco Park.
