{Suzanne and Russell} Orfila Vineyard Wedding Photography

Suzanne and Russell’s wedding at Orfila Vineyards in Escondido was one of those days when everything just went perfectly. The timing was all right, location was beautiful, weather was warm but not hot, and we had plenty of time to do all the photos we wanted to before getting to the reception. Sound like a photographer’s fairy tale? Well, it pretty much was;) I loved working with these two and also loved their friends…. the toasts were definitely in the top few for great/funny/tasteful toasts…. and that is saying something! Here are a few favorite images…. stay tuned for their beautiful album design next.

Families often tell me that the session flew by—that it felt more like time together than a photoshoot. That’s exactly how it should be. If you’d like that experience, let’s work together.
