On March 28 Sechrest Photos was hired to photograph the wedding of Daryl and Melissa.  This wedding like all the weddings we photograph had its own unique flavor.

Daryl and Melissa had a child together who is around two and Melissa also has a 7 year son. Both the boys had a great time at the wedding with non stop energy.  When we arrived in Coronado Beach everyone was running very late, (no fault to the bride and groom) traffic into San Diego was beyond slow.

We found Melissa preparing for her day in the hotel room surrounding by sisters, cousins, children and her parents.  Daryl on the hand was in a “panic”.  Alan quickly calmed him down with his best man’s help.

The pictures in the slide show reflect a close family with lots of love.  Daryl we discovered was quite comfortable in center stage and MC’d the event with style and had the guests laughing often.

The bride had several things go wrong prior to the wedding day but handled them with style; one being she had to change her flower plan days before the wedding day.

The Coronado Beach setting is breathtaking for a wedding day and the roses were in full bloom with many colors.  There was another wedding starting and Alan had only a small amount of time to capture all the group

and family shots at the beach.

I think they came out amazing, I hope you do too.
