      <title><![CDATA[BEAUTIFUL BEACH WEDDING ]]></title>
      <link>http://homepage.mac.com/marisaholmes/iblog/C215452169/E20081023154911/index.html</link>
      <description><![CDATA[It was another beautiful beach wedding at the Laguna Cliffs Resort &amp; Spa with amazing details and vendors including  The Flower Girl, Swank AV, Heidelberg Pastry, and coordinated by the uber fabulous Stephanie Lairson.  The couple are big boat lovers and have the funniest story of how she sank his boat when they were dating, and when he didn't freak out she knew he was "a keeper."  For their  engagement session we headed to the fun zone and then jumped on a little boat to cruise around the harbor.  Little did they know that on their wedding day there would be a big sail boat race on the beach out front of the hotel.  We were a little late in capturing the boats with their sails up, but got some fabulous ones around them on the beach! ]]></description>

      <description><![CDATA[Julie and Delson are the amazing couple I shot at Camp earlier this summer.  Their engagement photos rocked and their wedding at Mastro's rocked even more!  I had such a blast spending the day with them and capturing all their special moments and fabulous details during the day.  Their wedding was well equipped with many amazing vendors including Tic Tick Floral, Fascination, Great Dane, and coordinated by Christina Wright of Simply Modern Weddings.   ]]></description>

Check out their fantastic photos!I want to add a special thank you to Melissa Koehler who came all the way from San Diego to shoot with me! ]]></description>

      <link>http://homepage.mac.com/marisaholmes/iblog/C136978782/E20080807183255/index.html</link>
      <description><![CDATA[When I was chatting with Julie on the phone she mentioned she wanted to go somewhere urban and fun for their engagement session. Since they live in Costa Mesa I mentioned my recent shoot at The LAB and she was on the fence about it.  She told me about CAMP, their sister location across the street, but I wasn't too sure about that.  I told her to trust me, it would be perfect.  Well, I got to The LAB a little early so I decided to hop across the street to the CAMP side....and to my amazement it was FANTASTIC!  I don't know why I hadn't checked it out before.  There were so many great colors, backgrounds, and textures it was so fun to play with!  I immediately called Julie on the phone and told her she was right about CAMP and that they should come meet me there instead.  We had such a great time shooting there it is now going on my preferred location list!  I guess the motto "the client is always right" is spoken from great knowledge.  Thanks guys for the tip, I can't wait for your upcoming wedding! ]]></description>

      <link>http://homepage.mac.com/marisaholmes/iblog/C215452169/E20080807163713/index.html</link>
      <description><![CDATA[Wooo Hooo!  It's about time for another fabulous wedding feature!  This wedding was very special for me because the bride is a dear friend of my Sister and I got to spend the day with her and all of their friends.  The setting was absolutely beautiful and intimate at the La Jolla Women's Club down in San Diego, and Charlene, the bride did an amazing job designing and decorating the ceremony site and ballroom.  She is very talented and has a successful jewelry business called Leila Jewelry, which by the way I am in absolute love over!  She sent me a catalog to chose from and I haven't yet picked what I want because I can't narrow it down!  Everything is fantastic!  Check out Charlene and Shahriar's wedding and then be sure to check out their website and all of the gorgeous jewelry when you are done.  Oh, and by the way, she designed ALL her and her bridesmaids jewelry for the wedding, how cool is that! ]]></description>

      <link>http://homepage.mac.com/marisaholmes/iblog/C136978782/E20080724184445/index.html</link>
      <description><![CDATA[Here is another fabulous engagement session with a bride and groom who's wedding is just around the corner!  They were a ton of fun to shoot and hangout with in Laguna Beach.  We even grabbed some yummy sushi (one of my favorites) after!We started taking photos around the village and shops and then headed down to the beach for a few more as the sun was going down.  When we got to the sand I mentioned how fun it would be to jump on one of the lifeguard stations.  Then they told me that's how they met!  I paused and asked them why they never mentioned that before when they knew we were shooting at the beach.  It's those little details I love to get from clients to make their pictures special and really represent them, their lifestyle and their relationship.  I definitely knew I needed to incorporate it in their shoot, and then wondered what else aren't my clients mentioning to me when I ask them.  So.... if you are one of my clients PLEASE fill me in on all the little details, I promise it will make your photo shoot soooo much more personal and reflect who you are. ]]></description>
