Winter Wedding in the Mountains || Phil + Rita married in Julian, CA

January 16, 2019 by Christine Tustin in California, Photography, San Diego, wedding, 2019 Wedding

I loved watching this day unfold. As soon as I got to the venue, Phil and his groomsmen were the first to greet me with big smiles and a warm welcome. Next was Rita who was busy getting her hair done, but gave me the most excited and joyous greeting. Their happiness was contagious and I was planted right in the middle of it all. (Seriously, I love my job).

Megan + Matt Married at Green Gables || San Diego, CA

October 22, 2018 by Christine Tustin in 2018 Weddings, California, Fall Wedding, Photography, San Diego, wedding

100 year old school house, the family dog adorned in flowers, and a dance floor full of happy hips - pretty much sums up this epic day start to finish. Though there were some pretty incredible details in between that I can’t leave out. Like the amount of times that someone was lifted up by either the groomsmen, bridesmaids, or bride and groom or Megan having a first look with all three of her brothers and her dad. Though, my favorite detail of the entire day was the ring warming.

Cozy Seaside Engagement Session || Megan and Matt - Del Mar, CA

September 20, 2018 by Christine Tustin in 2018 Weddings, California, Engagement, Fall Wedding, San Diego, wedding, Del Mar

My favorite sessions are the ones that I feel like I’m just hanging out with two good friends. Matt and Megan have that presence about them. Two incredible people down for a good time and making you feel part-of-the-group. We spent this little endeavor laughing, talking (mostly about) tv shows - SYTYCD and World of Dance fans over here, and I got to know them on a whole new level. This sweet little evening session brought me to know that I love them (not that I doubted I would) and their relationship.

Crazy in Love at Sunset Cliffs | Mariana + Chris San Diego Elopement

September 03, 2018 by Christine Tustin in 2018 Weddings, California, Engagement, Ocean Beach, Photography, San Diego, Sunset Cliffs, wedding, Elopement, Intimate Wedding

Everyone loves a good Beyonce shout out, am I right?! I've been all about using Beyonce song titles as my punch lines lately. These two would be the screaming definition of crazy in love if I've ever seen one. Their connection was undeniably electrifying. I've never seen two humans so magnetized to one another in my life and it had me smiling ear to ear when I walked away after our time together.

Rachel and Mike married at Jurassic Park | The Ranch at Bandy Canyon

November 12, 2017 by Christine Tustin in wedding, 2017 Weddings, Fall Wedding, San Diego

The birds were making their presence known and it was the perfect temperature. The girls were poppin' champagne and the guys were getting settled into their cabin with food and bevs. Honestly, I think the best way to describe this day is that it was bursting at the seams with love. Beautiful, genuine, emotional love.

Hannah and Hart || Sacramento, CA Wedding Fiesta

October 21, 2016 by Christine Tustin in wedding

Friends, let me tell you-- this Sacramento wedding fiesta did not disappoint. Tucked away on a winding road in Newcastle, CA is the gorgeous barn the wedding took place. The minute you walk in, the smell of cedar greets your nose and on this day music and laughter met your ears. The girls were getting ready in the loft upstairs and before I even reached them I could feel the excitement.

Blake and Jessica are Married! || Sterlingbrook Farm - Pittstown, NJ Wedding

September 24, 2016 by Christine Tustin in wedding

September weddings in New Jersey might be my new favorite. Driving through what once were very familiar tree covered roads and looking at the leaves just start to turn - I was reminded of all the beauty that I was fortunate to grow up with.

Craig and Liz | Sunset Cliffs Wedding

July 17, 2016 by Christine Tustin in wedding

If you aren't already familiar with the city of San Diego, let me paint you a quick picture; bright sunshine, blue skies, towering palms, winding cacti, plentiful succulents, that big ol' pacific ocean, and did I say sunshine? All of this - surrounding a bustling, vibrant, diverse city.
