Just last month, Alex + Delfina tied the knot at the Coyote Creek Golf Course in Morgan Hill, CA. It was such an honor to photograph their wedding because I also took their engagement photos in Filoli Gardens.
For Alex + Delfina, it all started when they met online. Alex wrote on his profile that he was looking for his girl with the yellow umbrella, a reference to the show How I Met Your Mother, and it was instant chemistry from there.
Delfina actually walked down the aisle with a yellow umbrella to commemorate the inside joke!
With a calm and balanced energy, it was impossible not to feel comfortable with Alex + Delfina! I am also Hispanic, so I felt right at home. We found lots of common ground.
The wedding was absolutely stunning, and I’m thrilled to have had the opportunity to photograph them again and work with other amazing vendors like All_Soiree_Dj_Entertainment, Events_coyotecreekgc, and dannysphotobooth!
The bride was perfectly radiant the entire time, and we made sure to keep things short so that we could all enjoy the air conditioning inside.
Since it was a very warm day with harsh lighting, we rose to the challenge during the formal photos and found locations around the club with some backlight. This way, no one had shadows on their faces.
During the first dance, the happy couple floated on cloud nine. Alex + Delfina chose orange and navy blue as their wedding colors, which is a really nice combination that I don’t see often.
Before the first dance, we had about a half hour to take advantage of the golden summer evening. This was the most gorgeous light of the day, and that’s why these photos are my favorites. Wishing you many happy years together, Alex + Delfina!
