Secluded Garden Estate Wedding Pala CA // Southern California Wedding Photographers // Nolan & Sara

I will always sing praises for Secluded Garden Estate, because although it is a larger venue and requires quite a bit of walking, it is an absolutely STUNNING backdrop for celebrating with family and friends!

Nolan & Sara are seriously THE most easy-going people you will ever meet, and I’m pretty sure I never heard a negative comment come from either of their mouths all day! They are joyful, caring human beings who are madly in love with each other and who love others unconditionally.

My favorite part about their wedding was how much they wanted it to reflect THEM. The moon and stars have always been significant in their relationship, and Sara did a phenomenal job at bringing that to life! From her boho inspired, stars decorated wedding dress, to the fact that they chose to inform their guests on their favorite charities they would like donated to instead of asking for gifts for themselves. It was an absolutely perfect day, and I am a better person for knowing them. Here’s what they had to say:

“Hiring Kate was definitely a highlight of our wedding. My husband and I got our photos back today (after one month!!! she is fast) and one of his first comments was “wow, this was the best money we ever spent.” The photos we received exceeded my expectations, and I honestly can’t stop looking at them and smiling.

Kate was incredibly fun to work with; I can’t emphasize this enough. She genuinely made us laugh and smile throughout the day, and our pictures reflect this. She was put on this earth to be a photographer and will put you at ease as she snaps away. My husband actually hates taking pictures most of the time and even he had a ton of fun. He looks so relaxed and happy in our pictures. Kate definitely set the tone for the day to be all about love and having fun, and she was great at posing us in a way that came across as super candid.

She did a fantastic job of capturing sweet moments with family members, craziness on the dance floor, as well as the love between my new husband and me. I especially loved all the detail shots Kate took. My family and I did a ton of DIY for the wedding and she really showcased the work in the best way.

If beautiful photos and working with a genuinely kindhearted and talented photographer are your thing, then I think you just found your girl!”

My heart is full, and I am so humbled! Enjoy this day.
