Sam and Jocelyn - Santa Barbara, California (Godric Grove / Elings Park)

Sam and Jocelyn are two of the most warm, tender-hearted, and genuine people I’ve ever met. They are perfectly suited for each other, always matching each other’s energy, so that when one is contemplative, the other one becomes solemn; when one takes a shot and starts breakdancing, the other takes two and matches their moves on the dance floor. They both have a vivacious love for life that is truly infectious — as anyone who attended their wedding can attest.

Sam and Jocelyn’s wedding was at Godric Grove in Elings Park, a little tucked away spot full of lush greenery in Santa Barbara. It was the perfect place for them, from their simple ceremony to their allllll night dance party. Here’s a selection of some of my favorite photos from their day, starting with their pre-ceremony first look:

The natural light was non-stop gorgeous, from sunrise to sunset:
