Franciscan Gardens Wedding Photography – Brian & Jenny – 09/01/2013

Last Sunday after enjoying a day of rest and recovery from Friday’s wedding I headed to Franciscan Gardens to capture Brian & Jenny’s wedding day!!  I was so excited their wedding day was finally here!!  You may remember their engagement session I posted on my blog a couple months ago.  Brian & Jenny met with me over 2 years ago to talk wedding photography even though they didn’t have a venue or date yet.  When they were finally ready to book, after deciding on a date and venue, they made it clear that if I wasn’t available on their chosen date they would change their plans around me.  Thankfully none of that was required!

I love how intimate Brian & Jenny’s wedding day was with just a small selection of their closest family and friends.  There are so many awesome images from their wedding day!!  Take a look at some of my favorites below!

Some details

After Brian & Jenny were ready we walked across the street to Mission San Juan Capistrano for the first look and some portraits. Brian was shocked with how perfect his bride looked.

After the first look we spent some time shooting portraits on Brian & Jenny.

We headed back to the garden for some bridal party photos before the ceremony

I love this moment just after Jenny & Brian are announced as husband and wife.

Thanks to Danny Mendoza for capturing this wide angle of the reception area.

Brian and Jenny practice for many weeks to pull off this Tango for their first dance.

I am so thankful that Adam & Victoria hired me for their wedding 3 years ago so I could meet Brian & Jenny!
