This December wedding at the Carmel Moutain Ranch Estate was aaabsolutely stunning. Since it’s Southern California and never actually winter, we were able to take some beautiful outdoor portraits and go inside to enjoy the ceremony and reception… warmly (:

We started off with prep at the CRM Estate – which has the most stunning light. It is the perrrrfect place for getting ready photos for a wedding- theres an abundance of light and space.

Then we headed off to the St. Gabriel Catholic Church for the ceremony- an absolute stunner of a church. SO bright and beautiful. Perfect for photos.

I was the second photographer, shooting for Alexis Ralson Photo– so in this post you’ll see that I was mostly in charge of covering the groom getting ready. On wedding days, the groom getting ready photos are what second shooters cover for me! (Unless we’re in the same building very close, and the timeline allows- then I’ll try and cover both).
