Judi and Andy’s beach wedding and reception were at the Annenberg Community Beach House on Pacific Coast Highway (PCH) in Santa Monica, California. Although I’ve photographed many wedding couples on the beach, this was one of my few beach weddings. And man it was [insert cool adjective here].

The Annenberg Community Beach House on Pacific Coast Highway (PCH) in Santa Monica

Hi There!

I was very impressed with her bouquet — from a non-professional florist no less!

Serious people …

I’m not above letting a wedding guest take a snap. Of course my photo was better …

Sweetness!

The perfect wedding couple at the Annenberg Community Beach House

I wonder what this skyline will look like in thirty years?

Cool Socks!

Making an equipment room look magical is kind of hard.

Follow me honey!

Very cool boutonnière.

iPhone photos are all the rage!

Blue skies, smiling at me …

Time to get those shoes off for a walk on the sand!

And so they did (walk on the sand).

And that made them so happy they wanted to jump for joy on the boardwalk.
They remembered this move from their engagement session.

I’m thinking that the Annenberg Community Beach House might want to use this photo on their web site.

Andy’s son makes a crazy face.

And this is what he sees.

Simple centerpieces. I thought they were particularly awesome!

Andy and Judi watch their friends walk down to the beach ceremony location.

Here are some guests that match the Annenberg Community Beach House signage.

And here are some that decide to run through the sand instead of using the boardwalk.

All done! Time for some partying!

The reception was on the top floor of the Annenberg Community Beach House.

I’m funny for about 10 hours.

My iPhone picture is better than your iPhone picture!

Damn! I forget to grab a cupcake on the way out the door!

Judi’s brothers were bringing it with their video cameras!

There was no room on the table for the cake they needed to cut so the DJ stepped
in and held it for them. That was pretty good initiative on his part!

Ah, the first dance.

As I was leaving, this was my 2nd to last shot of the night.

And for the finale, there you have it!
