Our buddies Alex and Mark married each other on June 25th at Nestldown in Santa Cruz, California. The location was amazing, a photographers dream! Unfortunately I wasn't the main photographer so I wasn't the one that got to run around the property for a special bride and groom photo shoot. But what I did get was beautiful and fun and funky, thanks to their festive Day of the Dead theme. And I had a wonderful time shooting and enjoying the wedding of two of our favorite people...

The incredible ceremony site amongst the beautiful redwood trees.
our friend Nicole was a bridesmaid. Love that she got to wear her Converse!
adorable father/daughter moment. One of my favorites of the day.By the way, Alex got her dress just a month before her wedding!
The bride walking down the aisle. Angel wing tattoo plus a sparkly veil make me all swoon-y.

My husband said this picture made him feel like he was looking at a fairy wedding.
Just married! This is my favorite shot of the day.
The reception hall.
The cupcake tree. The top tier of the "wedding cake" was a giant Rice Krispie treat!
My husband and his old Largo work buddies Sammi & Ellen.
Exploring the awesome property.
The wedding party makes their grand entrance by train!
Muy romantica. How beautiful is that bouquet?
This was an awesome moment. Their "first shot as husband and wife!"
A bridesmaid and Jr. bridesmaid.
The groom! Check out his rad tie!
The "Best Woman" got to wear one of those rad ties as well.
The dinner location & the amazing centerpieces.
Our centerpiece and wedding favors. We got to keep all the luchadors and Alex & Mark picked out this special favor for us since we just got married. It was really sweet.
The bride & groom at their sweetheart table.
Our table mates.
