While Justin and Chris were off shooting destination weddings all over the country, I had the opportunity of heading up to Santa Barbara for our friends Daniel and Jenna’s wedding. We head up to Santa Barbara quite often for weddings and engagements, however, this time I thought that since I was traveling alone, that maybe I would take the train rather than driving all by my lonesome. Since I was young, I have always thought of trains as kind of a romantic way of getting from one place to the next. While it made the day a little longer, it definitely made the day far more relaxing as I was able to mix working with staring out at the scenic Pacific coast line.

Anyway, I arrived at Eling’s Park which was perched on top of a large hill overlooking the entire city of Santa Barbara. Eling’s
Park is divided into several smaller coves in order to allow multiple events to each have their own private area of the park. Daniel and Jenna did an amazing job with the overall design of their ceremony and reception decor. They used very light colors, and a minimalistic approach to the entire day that was tasteful and eloquent, but that also allowed you to feel as though you were still primarily surrounded by nature rather than snuffing out the natural beauty of the cove with artificial decorations.

While the time flew by, I had a wonderful time shooting with our couple and their guests. Between the ceremony, formals, couples shoot and reception, we even had some time to get in some wild shots with the bridal party.

So, without further adieu, congratulations Daniel and Jenna and we wish you both the best in your new life together as husband and wife. Enjoy the photos, there will be many more to come!

Just thought I would start off with a shot of the train station in Santa Ana while waiting for the train to arrive.

Here is the pristine Santa Barbara view from our little cove up on Elings Park. You can see the fog rolling in over the city.

The details at the wedding were well-planned and very well executed.

The lilies on the tables were a nice touch for this beautiful Santa Barbara wedding.

We had a great couples session at Elings Park in Santa Barbara.

During the couple session, I had a lot of fun throwing in jokes here and there to see if they could keep a straight face. Looks like I won this one =)

We snuck away under the shade for some intimate shots of our bride and groom.
