This amazing couple! I met them three years ago when Melissa reached out to me to photograph Julio’s Graduation! Oh she was just a gem to communicate with from the start, and then meeting her and Julio’s Family….I just felt like I hit the jackpot in amazing humans! Little did I know I would be capturing their Wedding 3 years later! AHH! They had the most perfect intimate Wedding at the San Diego Courthouse! You GUYS! It was POURing the WHOLE morning….I showed up to the hotel soaked, but guess WHAT?! It literally stopped shortly after I arrived before anyone had to go outside! AHH! Talk about meant to be. When I arrived at the Hotel, both the guys and the girls couldn’t have been more full of joy and anticipation for the day and were not at all phased by the fact that it was and could be raining! Melissa’s MUA and Hair Stylist Shelby Henry {@makeup_shelbyy}, was just adding to the happy energy throughout the morning. I couldn’t find an image of Melissa where she wasn’t beaming! The first look was so incredibly peaceful and tender. Tears involved and gentle hugs. We then boogied over to the Courthouse to make things official! The Ceremony room couldn’t have been more full with love and support for these two. After the formals we parted ways but what a day to remember! I hope you enjoy some of my favorites from their day! SOO happy for your Julio and Melissa!
