Wedding at the Villa del Sol d'Oro in Sierra Madre: Tara and Pablo

The wedding of Pablo and Tara was very cozy and fun. They wanted their wedding to have the feeling of a villa in Italy. Well, they did! They chose the most beautiful Villa del Sol d’Oro in Sierra Madre. What a place! I absolutely fell in love with it. The Alverno Villa (Villa del Sol) is a duplicate of the Villa Collazzi located on the outskirts of Florence Italy. Villa Collazzi has been occupied for several centuries by the Bombicci Fomi family, and legend has it that the Villa is the only one ever designed by the immortal Michelangelo. The Villa del Sol d’Oro is one quarter scale of the original. I really wanted to stay there and make it as my own home. Tara and Pablo chose to see each other before the ceremony, so I was able to take special time to photograph them alone. Then family and friends. After we where done with the portraits, it was time to get married!. When it was time to say their vows to each other (I cried!!) it was a very touching moment and everyone got to experience the love that they feel for each other. Thanks to all of the family members how flew from Argentina, Canada and all over the world to be at the Villa del Sol d’Oro to celebrate the marriage of Tara and Pablo.
Special thanks to Nicole and Mike who referred me to Tara and Pablo. I am extremely grateful for that. David, thank you helping me with this lovely wedding.

Engagement session in Downtown Los Angeles

Last week was a fantastic one for me. I got to work in two different weddings over the long Memorial Day weekend. But now, I am taking a tiny break from editing weddings in order to post the engagement session of Pablo and Tara in Downtown L.A. Visiting this area of Los Angeles makes me realize how wonderful and rich our cities are. The engagement session was at the Eastern Columbia Building; it’s a green jewel in downtown. If you have been downtown, you couldn’t have missed it. It’s wonderful!
We got up to the top and the view from there was so peaceful and relaxing; honestly, I did not want to leave. We used two apartments; one unfurnished and one perfectly decorated with antiques and original Boteros.

Tara and Pablo are getting married this weekend at the Villa del Sol de Oro in Sierra Madre. Special thanks to Nicole, who told Tara about me..Gracias!!!!
