We love an engagement session that reflects the real personality of a couple. Chrissy and Aaron are a cool, laid-back pair out of California, and their Venice Beach engagement shoot encompasses what’s most important about their love. Photographer Evangeline Lane beautifully captured their relaxed spirit and magical California sunset as Chrissy and Aaron strolled and snuggled in the sand. The blankets they shared were stitched by Chrissy’s mother, Aaron’s cruiser was a gift from Chrissy, and the couple toasted glasses of their favorite celebration beer as they watched the sun go down.
Thanks to Chrissy and Aaron for giving us a glimpse into your sweet relationship, and to Evangeline Lane for showcasing such a cool couple. For more engagement session by the water inspiration, don’t miss Meghan and Patrick’s Lake Dillon Colorado engagement shoot.
You may recognize sweet couple Aubrey and Tyler from their post-wedding shoot that we shared earlier this fall. The pair exchanged vows during their backyard wedding in Nevada surrounded by close loved ones and their gorgeous pup. We love that Aubrey and Tyler found inspiration for their special day in their career as private chefs, using a vegetable garden motif for their reception. Rose Street Studio and Mabble Media captured such stunning images and video, respectively, of Aubrey and Tyler’s whimsical wedding.
The Couple: Aubrey and Tyler
The Wedding: Private Residence, Glenbrook, Nevada
The Inspiration: “We now own a private chef company in Lake Tahoe called, Butter + Salt. Naturally, we love food. One of the first things we thought about was incorporating herbs into my bouquet. Then it was our centerpieces and table numbers. I thought it would be neat to have each table be a vegetable rather than a table number. Beet table, Carrot table, Rainbow Chard table etc… My mom was brilliant and thought how cute it would be to have guests find their name on a seed packet that correlated with their table. Done and Done. She created a “garden” of seed packets that looked amazing.
We wanted to have a relaxed outodoor wedding in a private home. We were fortunate to have it in a beautiful home very close to the shore of Lake Tahoe. We skipped the traditional bouquet toss, garter toss, cake cutting etc and went for more of a party with a short ceremony. We were relaxed about fashion. I let my bridesmaids pick a dress and asked that it be short and white. For the gentleman, we provided chambray ties and blue suspenders and asked they bring brown shoes, navy pants and a white shirt.
I had seen my dress on Pinterest a year before I was even engaged. I only made one bridal dress appointment at Swoon Bridal in Reno and showed them the photo. They said, “We have that dress!” I tried five dresses on for fun, but the moment I put Sweetpea on, I knew it was still ‘the one.‘”
We love being able to share wedding videos that tell the wedding story through another beautiful lens. Here’s how Mabble Media captured Aubrey and Tyler’s day.
The Moments: “We skipped the “first look” because we wanted that moment of seeing each other during the ceremony to be special. Seeing Tyler cry for the first time was hands down the most amazing feeling and my favorite moment of the entire night. He was smiling as tears streamed down his face and his blue eyes were extremely bright. I felt so much love for him and knew this moment would last forever in my memory.”
The Couple Recommends: “I adored all of our vendors. We were careful in how we chose them because we wanted to feel comfortable with whoever was apart of our intimate day. Rose Street Studio was so easy going, yet got the job done. I loved that I didn’t have to do any but take their direction and relax. Mabble Media was probably the most exciting aspect. I could not wait to one day see the film of all the things I missed. The film blew both of our minds and was the best purchase we made.”

By combining the bold colors of the venue with the impeccable styling of Love by Lynzie, Lindsay and Colt’s dream backyard party Toronto wedding came true. Every element is fun and true to the couple’s vision, from the adorable, vibrant bunting used during the ceremony and reception to the sweet and salty popcorn bar. Photographer Scarlet O’Neill captured the relaxed ambiance in every shot, making Lindsay and Colt’s wedding album a joy to look back on for years to come.
The Inspiration: “My amazingly creative wedding planner Lynzie Kent helped us put our dream of a Cottage Chic wedding. We wanted it to be casual but classy.”
The Moments: “Oh goodness, so many wonderful moments. How do I choose one? I would have to say when our friend Arja announced us Husband and Wife!”
