Hello there all you three day weekenders! We kept ourselves busy with several shoots over the weekend, one being the sweet wedding at Paradise Point in San Diego that I shared in the last post. I wanted to start out the week on this fabulous Tuesday with a shoot that we did on Friday. I have for you the lovely Kristen and her trash the dress session. She is a wilderness girl at heart, so we decided to hunt for some snow and we got there just in time! It was a little cold but she was a trooper and rocked it, although not hard to rock it when you’re as hot as her…she was melting the snow for sure (yes yes, I know, I just couldn’t help myself)! Seriously though, it was such a treat to do this shoot with Kristen (one of my dearest friends) and to have a little different setting than we typically see in San Diego (sunny all the time). Alright, I hear some lunch calling my name so I’ll leave you with the pictures….always better than my words anyway! Enjoy my friends!
oh, and also a quick request. One of my couples is having a slight venue emergency. Their venue is canceling on them for their May wedding (and all the other weddings that were booked there) so they have an urgent need to find a replacement venue ASAP. I know you’re all pros out there and if you have any venue recommendations that are a bit off the beaten path in the San Diego area, please post it in the comments. Thanks you so much for your help and we love you all!!!
Awww! So pretty, fun, and different! Great pictures of Kristen! She totally is hot stuff! Way to take advantage of the snow! I love it!

Love the mix of snow and shrubbery! Really made the bride, her yellow sweater and fun shoes stand out!
I know of a private estate in Escondido that has started hosting events that could possibly help out your couple. Let me know if they’re still in need of a venue!

Comment by Tim Tab 02.18.10 @ 9:20 amI love love LOVE this photo session! The boots with the dress are adorable and the color added with the yellow sweater and orange jacket are perfect! I adore your work, keep the good stuff coming
Thanks for the shoot, Rachel & Rico! Only super amazing photographers can make an extremely non-photogenic person look good. Further testament to the fact that you both are the BEST!!!
It snowed in San Diego. Wow I feel so out of it! Love the last one. She look so vulnerable and sweet.
