Wedding at Mission Ranch, Carmel-by-the-Sea, CA





The first weekend in July Lindsay and I drove down to beautiful Carmel to photography Loren and Michael's wedding. The entire event was held at the incredible Mission Ranch. Loren and her bridesmaids got ready in the honeymoon cottage- an adorable little house adjacent to the 1850s farmhouse on the property. Loren and Michael decided to see each other before the ceremony, allowing for ample time to take advantage of the incredible grounds for photos. The ceremony itself was in front of an enormous pasture just in front of the sea- and in there is a quaint little group of sheep. Absolutely stunning. The highlight was watching the adorable children Loren and Michael chose to be bell-ringers for their ceremony. Following the ceremony the cocktail hour took place in the small barn; and then everyone moved into the large barn for the formal dinner and toasts. Afterwards it was back to the patio barn for dancing. James Coulson from SightNSound provided music that kept the party going full steam for the entire evening. We were thrilled to learn that we would again be working with them a few weeks later for Mark and Susan's wedding in Monterey. Congratulations Loren and Michael!
