Wedding: Patrick & Kate | Ponte Winery, Temecula, CA | Analisa Joy Photography | Upland, CA Photographer

I want the world to know how much I LOVE Kate!! When she contacted me after she got engaged I knew I was going to enjoy getting to know her throughout this process. Her email was full of enthusiasm, energy, and exclamation marks… I love me some exclamations!!

When I met Patrick and Kate for their engagement session, we could not stop saying the word magical. I loved each shot more than the last. We talked effortlessly and became instant friends. We realized we ran in similar circles and I feel like I was photographing a pair of childhood friends.

I was counting down the days to this wedding because I loved being around Patrick and Kate. I enjoy how much they compliment one another. Patrick is Mr. cool, calm, and collective. He is your go-with-the-flow attitude and is trying his best not to laugh at Kate and I with our high energy. Kate is bubbly, an extrovert, and she has a type A personality. She’s extremely organized and has everything scheduled and ready to go. As a photographer, I love details and I couldn’t be more thankful for this detail oriented bride.

Their wedding exceeded all expectations and it truly was MAGICAL! Ponte Winery is a gorgeous venue and we could not have asked for a prettier day. All the vendors made this a magazine worthy wedding and I had the best time capturing it. The best part of the day was when we saw a double rainbow arching over their entire venue. It was the perfect ending to a perfect day! I loved being a part of such an amazing celebration and I’m so thankful that I made sweet friends in the process. I have so many favorites posted below. Enjoy!
