Tara & Timmy: Backyard Wedding

This past weekend, I had the great pleasure of photographing Tara and Timmy as they tied the knot at the house Tara grew up in Newhall, CA.  Her style was “shabby chic with a vintage vibe.”  When we first met and she described her wedding to me, it seems she named all the pretty colors of the rainbow and said that would be mixed with burlap and lace.  After seeing them and their vision, I knew the wedding photos would be awesome!   They are both gorgeous and I really love backyard weddings.  Friends and family may see all the wedding images HERE.

The flowers were amazing!!  A classy mix of white and yellow.  I love the detailing of burlap, lace, and pearls on the stems.

The ceremony and reception both took place in the back yard.  Tara created an alter made of a door and windows to represent a home.

The backyard was so amazing.  Can you believe it fit 200 guest very comfortably?!

As guests were enjoying some refreshments before dinner, we had time for some formal pictures at the neighbor’s large Oak Tree.
