When I first photographed Ben and Mandy, it was on a freezing cold day in Pasadena for their engagement, and was a huge contrast to their warm and summery Disneyland Hotel Wedding.  During the session, we made a special stop at the home where they filmed the Father of the Bride.

Heather and Adam were one of the very first couples to book me as their wedding photographer, so it was a treat when their Disneyland Hotel Rose Court Garden Wedding finally arrived.
