Backyard Wedding – San Diego County

Backyard Wedding – San Diego County

For Jaime and Brock it was important to keep their backyard wedding in San Diego County an intimate event. They only invited close friends and family and kept the wedding a secret from the rest of the world. They even requested a social media blackout on anything relating to them getting married until after the ceremony. When Jaime asked me to photograph their wedding that was even one of the requirements; I could not mention to anyone that her and Brock were planning on getting married. Which is totally cool because I like to be a part of these types of happy secrets. She said that they felt that nothing is private anymore in our social media crazed world. Keeping their wedding a secret made it feel more intimate.

The house that they selected was a great place for the backyard wedding. I am a big fan of views and sunsets and their ceremony looked awesome with the hills behind them. As the sun set behind the hills, the sky turned in to a gradient of orange to light blue that was a great backdrop for photos. I enjoy finding these angles and surprising the bride and groom as well as guests with the photos that we come up with. When I posted a preview on Facebook, I enjoyed reading the comments from the home owners about how surprised they were with how great their backyard and the view from it looked.

I think that they succeeded in making it an intimate and memorable celebration. There were so many great little moments throughout the afternoon from Brock receiving his engraved guitar pick, to Jaime’s mom crying while she got dressed, to the emotional hug during the first look and the first family selfie with the kids at the end of the ceremony.  It was great seeing them become a family and it’s moments like this that I enjoy most about my job.
