Undercover Receptions | Tented Wedding Venues

By, November 05, 2017

Rain or shine, tents for wedding receptions have many benefits. Tents are a way of bringing your reception outdoors, while providing the comforts of an indoor space. Along with being surprisingly spacious, tents can be dressed up with stylish lighting and décor. If it does rain, sides can be easily attached, to keep everyone dry and partying well into the night.

Here in San Diego, there are a wide variety of tented options, with different aesthetics for every preference. Check out these photos from local venues that offer tented spaces:

Fun Wedding Action Shots

By, August 04, 2017

Action shots are a great addition to the romantic, stylized, and candid photos captured throughout the wedding day. We accomplish action shots by creating a sense of movement within the image. By playing off our environment, and the personalities of our wedding couple, there are tons of opportunities for fun and creative photos! Here are a few of our recent favorites :)

Ethereal Open Air Resort Wedding | Julie and Michael

By, July 28, 2017

Julie and Michael had their wedding at the Ethereal Open Air Resort. This property is a new rustic venue by the owners of Green Gables and Twin Oaks House & Gardens. It was a rainy day, but because the venue had so many gorgeously decorated interior spaces, there were spectacular indoor photoshoot locations.

Portrait of Julie and Michael
This classic bar made for a perfect setting for a portrait. We backlit Julie and Michael to help create separation between them and the background. This ensured that Julie's dark hair and Michael's suit stood out without blending in with the shelves.

Once the rain subsided, we went out for some night portraits! We were able to take advantage of all the beautiful lights adorning the trees throughout the venue.
