Eugene and Alena | A Courthouse Wedding with a Reception in the Hills

Posted in: Weddings

Eugene and Alena were married at the Laguna Niguel Courthouse yesterday, and while they may have only been surrounded by a handful of family and friends, they knew that they wanted a photo shoot to commemorate such a meaningful and beautiful day. We were initially wary due to the impending rain in our forecast, but as the day progressed, Erin and I found ourselves with some of the most fantastic light we’ve seen in a long time!

There was so much love, laughter, and tenderness between these two that our time with them in a local park just flew by…they were so natural in front of the the camera and radiated joy from every look, embrace, and kiss. It was such a pleasure to have been chosen amongst a select view to partake in the celebration and be involved with such a special and exciting day!

*Photographers: These photos have been very lightly dodged and burned and sharpened for the web. But other than that, these images are basically straight out of camera. Yeah, amazing light we had yesterday. It couldn’t have been more perfect!*
