Always nice to be recognized. Have a peek at both of the incredible weddings I photographed last year that made it into this years copy of Ceremony Magazine OC!
Jamie and Jennifer were a blast to work with from start to finish. Jamie hails from Boston. It’s always awesome when the East Coast is representing at a wedding!

Andrew and Jenn were so Chilled out the whole day. My eyes almost popped out when I saw the wedding site! It was incredible! Still can’t believe it was a backyard wedding.

Had a fantastic time being part of Sarah and Jeff’s wedding celebration. Both families were awesome, and all arrived ready to cut loose.
Gotta say I was impressed by the fire dept. helicopter water-drop immediately after the ceremony! Oh yeah, almost forgot the location was beautiful. The hills out in Calabasas remind me of long road trips up interstate 5. I would always look out the window and wish I had a bride and groom in the golden hills next to a lone majestic oak tree. I finally got my Chance!

Last but not least, Thanks to Nathan Wauk (my amazing 2nd shooter) for a incredible job as usual!

Enjoy the picture, and don’t forget to check out the movie below!

Had a great time working with Kathryn and Coleman last weekend for their engagement photo session! We set our location for a great park in Orange County. The light, setting, and chemistry all came together for a incredible session! We even discovered a few new spots to shoot at! I also pulled a few tricky photoshop clicks to one of the images below. See if you can figure out where?

Enjoy,
Chris

So if I haven’t bored you yet, talking about running, then I’m about to start. I had the pleasure of running in the OC marathon on Sunday May 3rd. My cousin Max came down from LA and hit the pavement with me. Our race of choice is the 1/2 marathon. We both ran personal best times (1 hour 40min. 57 sec.) in near perfect cloudy cool conditions. It’s a really beautiful course winding through Corona Del Mar along the Ocean Bluffs, and through the Newport Back Bay wetlands, ending at the Costa Mesa Fairgrounds. Great Race! I can’t wait for the next one.

These two are troopers! I had the opportunity to connect with them on the phone the friday before their big day. Their wedding was moved from Cabo San Lucas to Indian wells at the last possible minute due to the swine flu outbreak. I hope all the stresses from the sudden shift of plans are melting away for this great couple out in Moorea, Tahiti. Yes I’m jealous! We at Imagery Immaculate Photography
could always use a little island time. Well the images look incredible from the wedding at the MiraMonte. Here is just one of my favs. The full slideshow is posted below the image.
Enjoy,
Chris
