My friend Kendra Duerst of Kendra Weddings invited me to participate in a photo shoot at the Mastro’s Steakhouse in Costa Mesa.
Kendra hired some amazing models and I met some great new wedding vendors that day.
This Mastro’s Steakhouse location can have weddings up to 100 guests and you have a choice of 4 different room configurations. Let’s be honest nothing beats Mastro’s food or service. Yummy.

and most of all Renee Pawale Bride’s gorgeous wedding accents —
the Celebration Accent (which can be worn different ways)

I read about the Casa del Herrero Estate in Montecito in the Los Angeles Times a couple of years ago. I decided to combine having a tour of the estate with my engagement shoot at the Santa Barbara Botanic Garden.
I took this photo from the estate’s lavish gardens. You can click here to read the Los Angeles Times article and here to see more images of the estate from the Los Angeles Times Photo Gallery.
I highly recommend taking a tour of this wonderful and garden.
Kelly and Andrew were another one of the couples that won an engagement session with me.
Here is a sneak peek of an image I shot of them at the Santa Barbara Botanic Garden over the weekend.
