When doing a wedding on the beach, some couples are not a big fan of the sand and seem almost scared of getting their feet wet. Not this wedded pair! Capturing their reflection in the water and a sweet embrace was a fun thing to do for them.
Any time we work at Cuvier Park, we expect the atmosphere to be perfect. This was no exception. Our couple couldn’t take their eyes off eachother! It was incredibly endearing to capture them looking intently into each other’s eyes.
Coronado has always had it’s charm, and the beach in front of the Hotel Del has always been a romantic spot. Our couple took advantage of this and ended up saying their ‘I do’s’ on the beach at sunset. Just to top off their feelings of elation, we took some amazing photos of the pair [...]
I love that this couple took a traditionally formal affair and adapted it to their own personal wants and needs, more of a lighthearted event. On the beach of Coronado is where these two tied the knot. The simple ceremony was clearly exactly what the love birds wanted and they were as happy as could [...]
This handsome couple married on the beach of Coronado. The happiness and affections was easily read on their faces during their sunset ceremony. A stroll along the sandy shores following the tying of the knot made for some incredible sunset shots.
Instead of getting married on the sands of the beach, this pair chose the rocks right next to the crashing waves in La Jolla. Once their marriage was made official, the two enjoyed a sunset and a walk along the beach for some romantic photos.
In true San Diego fashion, this lovely couple chose to get married on the cliffs just above the crashing waves of beautiful La Jolla. With their guests seated and anxious, the two pledged their love for each other with the cool breeze on their smiling faces. After the ceremony, we took the couple along the [...]
This couple not only had a love for art but a great passion for each other. Their wedding was held at the La Jolla Wedding Bowl, also known as Cuvier Park, which just so happens to be across the street from the Museum of Contemporary Art La Jolla. Having only their dearest friends and family [...]

This couple wanted to involve their child into their La Jolla elopement wedding ceremony which Rev. Christopher Tuttle performed. Instead of doing the ceremony in the La Jolla wedding blow, or Cuvier Park, they decided to their elopement wedding ceremony on the cliffs right next to the wedding bowl. We were lucky to have such [...]

This was another fine beach wedding elopement by the Hotel Del Coronado. I really enjoy photographing these small Coronado beach weddings, they don’t have the craziness of the big full size ones, but still have all the love. This elopement wedding even got a fly by from a military helicopter which I included in the [...]

This was a small wedding done at the Martin Johnson House at UCSD Scripps Institute of Oceanography (SIO). Instead of the main lawn area by the historic Martin Johnson House, this couple wanted to get married in the lawn area close to the library, by the Buddha statue. Rev Christopher Tuttle was the officiant for [...]

I love beach weddings in Coronado by the Hotel Del, and I especially love it when I have an adventurous bride that wants to do a trash the dress photo session. We did the trash the dress photos on a different beach in Pacific Beach, not on the same day as the wedding, although I [...]

I have lost count how many Coronado Beach weddings I have photographed, but that’s not to say that I don’t enjoy photographing them. This was a very fun couple, and the bride wanted some photos with a vintage look to them. I took that as my direction and provided wedding photos that they both absolutely [...]
I’m not sure why, but we just don’t see that many elopements at Sunset Cliffs but we always get to see beautiful views from up on the cliffs and you feel very private up there. This couple chose to walk down a ways from the parking lot to have their elopement just as the sun [...]
This was a cold February beach wedding but luckily the wind was low so the bride didn’t freeze while we were doing her Coronado Beach wedding photos at sunset close to the Hotel Del Coronado. I just love doing sunset beach weddings in San Diego and Coronado! This wedding was made special by having live [...]
This Coronado Beach Wedding at the Hotel Del Coronado was started rather late but since this was a simple elopement, we had the time to finish their photos. We actually got really lucky and had the high clouds light up with the beautiful Coronado beach sunset allowing me to capture some amazing wedding photos for [...]

If you’re trying to figure out this location, I can help. It’s on Sunset Cliffs blvd. and Hill, and this couple hired a company to set up the alter, columns, isle runner, and chairs. The day was covered in a marine layer which actually was great since the rest of San Diego was cooking at +90 [...]

Marina Village is a picturesque and cost conscience location located in Mission Beach and it’s surrounded by water. This bride was brought to Marina Village for her wedding via convertible car! The wedding photography came out great and we then traveled over to Pacific Beach for some more photography as the sun was setting.

Every year I photograph at least one wedding in the rain, even though it is San Diego and it hardly ever rains. Good thing that I have invested in the equipment that I have which is water proof and I think having a wedding couple in the rain kiss under an umbrella is very romantic [...]

Now there are many locations to have your beach wedding in San Diego, but one of my favorite spots for the wedding photography is at the Catamaran. You have the variety of the garden areas, the beach at the bay, the boat docks, and even a short walk away to the open ocean.
