Marlene & John | 8 Kinds of Smiles

Marlene & John :: Wedding Highlights

It’s a little crazy to think that Marlene & John have been together since they were kids. Those kinds of relationships are hard to find in today’s world of dating apps. But hearing their vows, it all makes sense. They’ve been in love with each other for as long as they can remember and continue to be in love with each other despite, as they say, knowing each other fully.

Marie & Brent | 8 Kinds of Smiles

Marie & Brent :: Same Day Edit

We closed out our 2018 weddings with a same day edit up in Monterey for Marie & Brent’s big day. At first, things were looking grim as rain was expected for some major parts of the day. But just right before we departed to shoot portraits in the late afternoon, the skies cleared, and nature provided us with the beautiful shots you see toward the end of the video. +1 to nature for coming through for us at the very last minute, and congrats again to Marie & Brent! It was a pleasure to shoot you both as our final wedding of the year!

Cindy & Brian | 8 Kinds of Smiles

Cindy & Brian :: Wedding Highlights

A bit of rain didn’t stop Cindy & Brian from putting on an amazing October wedding. Some quick highlights that come to mind include a duck carving station during cocktail hour, indoor (somehow non-flammable) sparklers to end their first dance, and lots and lots of swigging on the dance floor that was a clear indication everybody was ready to have great time with the couple.

Valerie & Eric | 8 Kinds of Smiles

Valerie & Eric :: Wedding Highlights

If there’s one thing we really love about Valerie & Eric, it has to be how silly they are together. It’s such a natural and raw feeling that really carries across in their interactions with one another and how they portray on camera. Tustin Ranch Golf club of course was a beautiful venue, but it’s Valerie & Eric’s energy as a couple that really ties this whole highlights video together.

Melanie & Christopher | 8 Kinds of Smiles

Melanie & Christopher :: Wedding Highlights

In his speech, Chris’ best man told the story of when Chris first met Melanie when they were just teenagers. It was at a chance party and following their initial encounter, Chris paid close attention to the directions it took to get back to Melanie. You could say that Chris knew from the very start that Melanie was the one. He was lovestruck.

Lovejoy & CJ :: Same Day Edit

It’s quite remarkable that Lovejoy & CJ have known each other for over a decade, having first met when they were just 16. They’ve been through so much together, and you can see that come through in their interactions with one another.

Daisy & Rodney :: Wedding Highlights

Walnut Grove made for such a beautiful outdoor space for Daisy & Rodney’s wedding. It was the perfect setting for a late summer event down to the rustic details and string lights.

Julie & Tony | 8 Kinds of Smiles

Julie & Tony :: Wedding Highlights

Having known Tony from high school, it’s great to see such a great guy end up with an equally awesome girl. They were just full of laughs the whole wedding day (in those distinctive laughs of theirs), and it’s easy to see how well they match one another.
