Newport Harbor Yacht Club Wedding Photography

Newport Harbor Yacht Club Wedding Photography

Newport Beach, CA

It was so great to be back to the Newport Harbor Yacht Club for Claire and Roberts wedding! The newly remodeled clubhouse is absolutely gorgeous. The wedding day started down the street at the Lido House hotel. The bridal suite was so cute! It totally fit the theme of the wedding day with all of the nautical decor. Wendy with Chic Productions was there keeping everyone on schedule and even steamed the dress!

After taking the getting ready and family photos at the Lido House, we met up with Robert and his family at the church for formal photos. After their beautiful traditional ceremony at Our Lady of Mount Carmel Church, they jumped in their hot rod Woody and drove the Newport Harbor Yacht Club.

Once we arrived to the Newport Harbor Yacht Club, we took a few more family formals and had time to walk around with the couple. Cocktail hour was going on upstairs on the deck while we took romantic photos with the Newport Harbor as their backdrop! The day passed by so fast! (that is how you know it was a fun wedding) The next thing we knew, the grand entrance was underway and the rest of the party was a blur! Congrats guys! We hops to see you again when your family grows! 🙂

This birthday session was all about spring. Yellow, white, and fresh greenery made the sweetest backdrop for celebrating this little girl turning two.

And one of my favorite parts? Mom and Dad joined in. Parents often think these sessions are just about the child, but being in the photos matters too. Years from now, she’ll look back and see not only her birthday joy but also the love surrounding her. 💛

This mama wanted something natural and timeless at the beach, and sunset gave her exactly that.

If you are planning maternity photos, think about sunrise or sunset. Those times of day truly make a difference in how relaxed and beautiful your images feel.

This year’s mini sessions are in the studio on our clean white backdrop. It’s timeless, classic, and the perfect blank canvas to let your family’s personality shine.

Last year we photographed this family, and they brought so much fun energy into their session. Proof that even on a simple backdrop, your joy and connection make the photos unique.

If you’ve been waiting for updated portraits, this is the easiest (and most fun!) way to do it
When it’s 115° by midday, sunrise is your best friend. For this session, we met at sunrise to photograph an 18-year-old heading out on his LDS mission.
	•	The light is softer and golden…perfect for portraits.
	•	The heat hasn’t set in yet, so you’re more comfortable.
	•	And bonus: fewer crowds at popular locations.

If you’re planning a summer session in Arizona, sunrise is the way to go!
