Megan and John – Rancho Las Lomas, St. Catherine of Sienna Church, San Juan Capistrano Wedding Photography

Megan and John are this fabulous couple from South Orange County and we were so excited to shoot this wedding.  We started at the St. Regis in Newport Beach with Megan’s getting ready photos, then we went to the church – St. Catherine of Sienna in Laguna Beach for the ceremony, and then off to Rancho Las Lomas in San Juan Capistrano.  The church had the most photography restrictions I have ever experienced (we literally had to be all the way in the back).  I mean, it’s always good to realize that you are photographing a religious event and that you can’t be distracting.  The only bummer is when people jump in front of you white the bride and groom are coming back down the aisle!  Regardless, we got everything we needed to and Megan and John are such a dashing couple.  John is Italian and his family was VERY fun.  Once the dancing started….everyone went crazy.  I had never photographed at Rancho Las Lomas before, though I had been seeing photos for years and I just loved shooting there.  What a fabulous venue!  Megan and John also had the coolest wedding vendors.  The videographer, Jessica from Ashley Video was awesome and the coordinator, Lindsay from LVL Events was super cool.  I hope I get to work with her again! Also, poor Megan was so worried about the forecast. She got a few ominous clouds, but otherwise, totally sunny! I love the close up of her checking the forecast on her Blackberry.
