7 Seven 7 Laguna Beach Wedding Photography

Sarah + Mark – 7 Seven 7 Laguna Beach Wedding Photography

It’s so good to be back to Seven 7 Seven! Both of the old Tivoli venues have been remodeled and are now under new management so things were quiet for awhile. The same owners also purchased Hotel Laguna as well. (come back in a week or so for that one) All of the sudden we had 4 weddings in a row at these properties, so we are so happy to be back in the mix!

Monarch Beach Resort + San Clemente Estate

The day started at the Monarch Beach Resort. We met up with the ladies and took getting ready/detail pics. Since brides aren’t allowed to use the grounds if they aren’t getting married there, Sarah had an even better location! We headed over to the most amazing estate overlooking San Clemente! It was a long time family friend’s home and they let her use the property for the first look and formal photos. It took everyone’s breath away! Afterwards, everyone hopped in the limo and cruised to Seven 7 Seven Laguna Beach.

Seven 7 Seven Ceremony + Reception

The newly remodeled wedding venue has a new look and it’s very colorful! Works for some weddings but Sarah’s vision was more of a clean and classy vibe! The girls at 777 had it covered. The entire front entrance was covered in pure white pipe and drape! It was exactly what Sarah had in mind. The traditional Jewish ceremony was beautiful and the weather was exactly what we ordered 🙂 They danced the night away while guests took photos at the vintage paper moon photo booth. This is not your average photo booth! Be sure to check out their creative twist at Paper Moon Shoppe.

Simple Sophistication

We are on Instagram
Six looks so good on her 🎈

We kept this session simple and sweet with a soft pink backdrop and balloons to match her fun personality. Then we brought the whole family in on the white backdrop, even their adorable pup.

I love sessions like this because they show how much personality shines through when the focus stays on your child and the people they love most.

Every one year old is different. Some dive right in, some take their time, and some are not quite sure what to think at first. That is what makes these sessions so fun. You never know what you are going to get.

I love seeing their personalities shine through, especially when parents join in for a few photos at the beginning. It is such a sweet way to celebrate the first year and capture all the joy that comes with it.

I loved seeing this sweet couple again and their little dog. This year we did the session at  the San Juan Capistrano Mission.

It is such a good reminder to make photos part of your yearly routine. Life changes quickly, and having a collection of portraits over the years tells your story in the best way.

The colors are soft, the light is golden, and it is the perfect spot for families to relax and be themselves. This crew made it easy with so many laughs, hugs, and those little moments that remind me why I love photographing families.

Tip: The best time for fall photos is right before sunset when the light turns warm and glowy.
