Rancho Valencia Resort Wedding Photography | Alison + Kelly

Vallentyne-Photography_1432.jpg

I love working with Susanne Duffy of Crown Weddings and this Rancho Valencia Resort wedding was no exception! Every detail was unique and I love how the entire wedding really reflected the bride and groom’s unique style and personality.

It was so much fun to work with Alison and Kelly on both their engagement and wedding photos…and also so wonderful to see Alison’s cute little baby bump on the wedding day! Of course she looked just as amazing as ever and I am so happy for the expansion of their little family! I can’t wait for family portraits in the future- congrats you two!

Here are a few of my favorite images….feel free to pin or leave a comment, we’d love to hear from you!

The best thing about memories is making them…
running wild, laughing loud, and loving big.
No script, just joy — and maybe a little sand. 🌞

Six months. That in-between place.

Still tiny, but suddenly sitting up.
Still baby, but full of personality.
These sessions are quiet little time capsules—
before the crawling, before the running,
before they’re off to chase the world.
