Laura and Renato said “I do” a few weeks ago at La Placita, Our Lady Queen of Angels (Nuestra Señora Reina de los Ángeles), in Los Angeles. La Placita is the first church built in LA and you can see below it was founded in 1781, so it was neat to be surrounded with so much history. After the ceremony, we headed to Almansor Court in Alhambra for their wedding reception filled with heartfelt toasts, mariachi band, DJ, dancing, cake, and much more. Austin Adams (austinadamsphotography.com) joined me for the day as the second shooter and was great to work with. It was so helpful to have a second shooter to capture different angles, especially during the ceremony. Congratulations, Laura and Renato! Enjoy the photos! Allison

Bridesmaids’ and bride’s bouquet…

Laura got ready at her parent’s house then headed to the church in style…

Laura and Renato’s ceremony was so special and they are so excited to be Mr. and Mrs. Austin captured the two photos on Laura and Renato…


The interior of the church is gorgeous and step back in time…

They had a mariachi band at their ceremony and well as the reception…

All of the children were so sweet to photograph…


After formal photos, we photographed the newlyweds across the street from the church and found some great areas…



A stunning couple and happily married…

Loved the blue and ocean decor in the reception room at Almansor Court…

The mariachi band helped get the celebration started!

Loved this dance with Laura, Renato, Laura’s dad, and Renato’s mom…


Everyone had a great time celebrating!

Congratulations, Laura and Renato!
