Coronado Community Center Wedding | Carmellee and Alvin

By True Photography, June 03, 2016 Weddings

We recently photographed the Coronado Community Center wedding of Carmellee and Alvin. According to Carmellee, Alvin is a quiet but silly guy, and the perfect compliment to her free spirit. When they first met at work, it was instant butterflies, and love at first sight. This perfectly paired couple chose San Diego as a destination wedding spot, and we were excited to capture amazing images for their big day.

The purple blooming flowers at The Coronado Community Center went along beautifully with this purple-themed wedding.

Because most of the bridal party and guests were also from Sacramento, the event was a little extra special for everyone.

Flower crowns were made available for the guests, which added a playful hippie vibe (below).

During the wedding, Carmellee and Alvin held a coin ceremony, which is an old Filipino tradition. The coins represent prosperity and financial security in each other. For added significance, Carmellee used the coins from her mother’s wedding in the Philippines.

Venues

By True Photography, July 19, 2013 Photo of the Week

This Friday, we wanted our Photo of the Week to show a little summertime romance. So, we thought this dreamy shot from Jennifer and Josh’s wedding fit the bill!

Jennifer and Josh enjoyed their wedding day at La Valencia Hotel in downtown La Jolla. Following their ceremony at Mary Star of the Sea, they ventured down to the tide pools off of Coast Boulevard for their must-have beach photos. The gorgeous late afternoon, combined with a romantic dip kiss and a glorious Vera Wang gown, gave way to this breathtaking photo!

Sand in the Shoes | A Wedding in Carmel, California | April 26, 2013

By True Photography, April 26, 2013 Photo of the Week

For our Photo of the Week, we chose this photo from Catherine and Jack’s wedding at the Hyatt Carmel Highlands Inn, a picturesque resort overlooking the Big Sur coast. The beaches along California’s coastline are always in high demand for exchanging vows and starting a new life together. We can only think of one downside to a beach wedding — getting a little sand in your shoes!

The photo below was taken right after an energetic photo shoot featuring the groomsmen. We love that our photographer captured this moment – the groomsmen emptying their sand-filled tuxedo shoes!
