I’d like to share some images from the wedding ceremony of Sara and Phil. Sara and Phil planned their day much further in advance than most couples I’ve met. Between the two of them, it seems like either one or both of them are always on a Navy ship in a far-flung part of the world, so advance planning was truly a must. I remember the first time I talked to Sara early in 2008, when November of 2009 seemed reeeaaalllly far away! It’s hard for me to believe that their day came and went, and that it’s already time to blog the images!

The day itself was perfect. The sky was blue, the sun was warm, and everybody was in a great mood. The day flowed just the way it was supposed to and it all came together for their sunset ceremony on the lawn at the Bayside in Point Loma. One of my favorite photographers, Kristina Chartier, was kind enough to lend her talent to the event and shoot with me that day, so I send her my thanks!

Without further ado, here are some of their images:

I have to confess: I was sent home with four of these cupcakes, and I ate them ALL before all of their images were uplaoded to my Mac!

Sara is a Nurse and this is part of her medical crew!

They act like Bad Girls, but they’re just clever stickers that say “Sara & Phil”

Venue: Ultimate Skybox, Downtown San Diego.
Coordination: Amanda McPhail

I always create a slideshow for every wedding, but I never seem to post them here. Slideshows are a great way to tell the story of the day with my favorites, sort of like an online album.

This slideshow belongs to Jodie and James, who were married fifteen stories above Petco Park at Skybox. The venue was a natural choice for Jodie and James, since baseball runs in both families. James had the good fortune to travel to Australia to play baseball for Jamie’s father, who is a coach. James got to stay with the coach’s family for a while, and one thing led to another, which happily led to a wedding!

There was a large Aussie contingency present and the dance floor definitely got a lot busier when music from down under came on the speakers. The ceremony was beautiful, the view was amazing, the food (best mashed potatoes ever) was great, and everybody was incredibly fun. I know that if I ever find myself in Brisbane, it will probably feel oddly familiar!

Enjoy the show!
