Last July, I had the pleasure of photographing one of the most heartwarming weddings of the year at the stunning Hacienda de las Flores in Moraga. It was the peak of summer, and let me tell you, it was hot. But this venue was an absolute oasis: plenty of shade, a refreshing breeze, and a calm, serene vibe that made the day feel so comfortable despite the heat.
Hacienda de las Flores is a photographer’s dream. There’s so much variety for portraits here! The combination of lush gardens and elegant Spanish-style architecture gives you endless opportunities to create something beautiful. One moment, you’re surrounded by vibrant flowers, and the next, you’re under an elegant archway or in a cozy courtyard.
Now, about the couple. Working with Alexis and her husband was an absolute joy. They were glowing with love, and that energy shone through in every part of their day—from their sweet, stolen glances to the heartfelt ceremony. And here’s a little spoiler: Alexis is expecting twin girls! 😍 I’m so excited to capture her maternity session soon—it’s going to be just as special, I’m sure.
Weddings like this remind me why I love what I do. It’s not just about the venue or the details (though Hacienda de las Flores definitely brought its A-game). It’s about the emotions, the connections, and the little moments that make each day unique.
If you’re planning a wedding at Hacienda de las Flores (or anywhere else!) and want timeless, heartfelt images, I’d love to help tell your story. Let’s create something magical together.
