Paris Engagement Session by Jose Villa Photography + Elysium Productions

I honestly don't even think I have the right words to open up this next jaw-droppingly beautiful feature. The gushy words that generally come so easily when I spy a pretty wedding have left the building. Totally and completely disappeared as this is a bring-you-to-tears, squeeze your hubby tighter love story like none you've ever seen. An engagement session in Paris. Photographed by Jose Villa. A wedding to follow. Filmed by... [MORE]

For anyone that is a regular SMP reader you know that I am a total sucker for two things...perfect white weddings and anything Jose Villa.

You get a very happy blogger who just happens to be dorking out on many different levels...from squeals of glee, to wedding butterflies, to maybe even a high kick or two. Or three.

Lake Tahoe Wedding by Jose Villa, Part II

It is not too often that we reserve an entire day for one wedding but with a Jose Villa number like this, we're almost tempted to reserve a whole week. Instead, we are kicking back and letting the gorgeous images do all the work while visions of the perfect wedding re-dos dance in our heads. And these nuptials of photography talent KT Merry are all out romance. Ohhhh, the... [MORE]

So much so, that we are devoting an entire day to one undeniably stunning wedding.  And... [MORE]

Santa Ynez Wedding by Jose Villa + Jill La Fleur + Joel Serrato, Part II

I've always said that one of the best decisions I ever made was hiring a cinematographer to film my wedding. I still pull it out time after time to relive the day, to see our moment in a way that is so incredibly tangible. So real that it seems like I'm right there in that pretty white dress all over again. So every time we get a video to accompany a real wedding feature, we smile. And if that film happens to be from Joel Serrato... [MORE]

Santa Ynez Wedding by Jose Villa + Jill La Fleur + Joel Serrato, Part I

You guys know what tends to happen to me when I get my hands on a Jose Villa wedding. I turn into a five year old who just took her first steps inside a candy store. Giddy, flustered, squealing here and there for no particular reason. Well, that's exactly what I did when I opened my email to see this gem of a wedding sitting there all perfect and pretty. Then I saw the vendor list... [MORE]

Jose Villa’s New Book + A GIVEAWAY!

Now that I have fully admitted to stalking Jose Villa on a daily basis, I thought I should tell you WHY I love him so. It's that there are very few people on this planet that can capture a perfect wedding, a perfect detail, a perfect moment...with such clarity. His photographs are so far from your standard wedding photojournalism fare. They are art. Gorgeous works of art that I can pick out of a stack of thousands any day of the week. [MORE]
