San Diego Museum of Art is such a dreamy place to shoot. So when Jillian told me she wanted to get married at SDMA, it was love at first phone call.
Jillian and Kevin had their first date there, so it was only right for them to get married in the same place that sparked their love. Jillian is such a sincere, heartfelt person with high vibe energy and I loved the way she spoke about Kevin. After the first time talking with her, we clicked instantly, it felt like we had known each other forever.
We went to Balboa Park a few hours before the wedding to photograph Jillian and Kevin in some pretty spaces around the park. They exchanged vows at Spreckels Organ Pavilion before sunset when the lighting was perfect and we love the beautiful expressions on their faces. While we were photographing, some little girls came up to watch with wide eyes completely mesmerized by Jillian in her dress, before running off to tell their parents they saw a princess. Everywhere we went around the park there were people who wished them well and congratulated them. I adore this magical infectious energy that weddings have, to make the people around them just a little happier to be alive after seeing two people as in love as Jillian and Kevin making that great leap of faith in life.
The wedding itself was beautiful, Cara designed the most dreamy California winter wedding (@luxeeventssd) and Annette (@flowersannettegomez) had turned SDMA into a wonderland that felt like you were in some ethereal space where art and nature met in perfect balance. Walking around the dimly lit museum, the faces of the bride and groom’s loved ones illuminated by the candle light of Annette’s arrangement was otherworldly.
The reception was beautiful, and truly felt like something out of a movie. The guests all looked so happy to be there, sharing space to honor love.
I am so honored to have seen them promise their eternal love to one another in such a special place like SDMA.
To Jillian and Kevin, may your love be as timeless as art itself.
