Major credit to Dapper Images for the awesome photos. Andrea’s Bouquet of purple in all shades- lisianthus, dahlias, scabiosa, blooming oregano, miniature “Picasso” calla lilies, and dusty miller.

One weekend at a time, folks. We’ve been having so much fun around here that I am already backlogged on photo posting! Starting at the beginning of spring let’s take a gander at Jamie & George’s spring nature fest. I swear I felt like breaking into “the hills are alive…” like Julie Andrews as I was taking these pics of such fresh yellow and white ranunculus on the bluffs of La Jolla, surrounded by shady Torrey Pine Trees…. Sweet flower … Read more

Cari & Marc @ La Jolla Shores

Posted on September 30, 2008 by charise

Oohh, love 🙂 To match the terracotta setting amid the sun and sand, Cari and her mom, Carole, were looking for a natural, relaxed feel to their florals.. with a taste for gerbera daisies, dahlias, and anything branchy, we had our creative direction in order. Silver ribbon accents tied the sunny gerberas to the railing leading to the ceremony. Bittersweet branches, rosehips, miniature calla lilies, roses & gerberas, dahlias, snowberry, green hypericum coffee berry, coxcomb in orange, red, and magenta.. … Read more
