Andrea & Chris - The Hedges

Andrea and Chris got married in a beautiful backyard in the Hedges of Los Angeles. A view that went on for miles was a perfect backdrop! This is incredible couple has an incredible story, almost straight out of a fairy tale. From the moment they met they knew their destiny was being fulfilled. A romantic, magical aurora fills the room around them, no matter where they go. Andrea got ready at the Four Seasons Beverly Wilshire which was possibly one of the most beautiful hotels we had ever been in. They had a wonderful Hawaiian ceremony, followed by the coolest first dance in the history of weddings...a choreographed dance to Elvis. It was incredible, and fit perfectly into their incredible day. Hopefully you get the impression they are an incredible couple!!!!

Here are a few of my fav's from the day.

"Summer Love" Bridal Show by Expobridal

Our bridal show this weekend was so much fun! The Summer Love bridal show, hosted by Expobridal was an affair to remember! Crazy vendors filled the ballroom at the Hilltop Hilton at Universal Studios and we had a blast getting to talk to hundreds of brides. Here at Nick Corona Photography we pride ourselves on every detail of our booth. From our catchy slide show to our life-size display prints, we captured the eyes and comments of brides and vendors alike. This is our second bridal show in a row where we have been deemed to have the best booth. Talk about exciting!

Below is a snippet video from a crazed booth fan. Pictures to follow shortly. What do you think, would it attract your attention?

Bridal Shows

We have discovered a love for bridal shows this year. Although we have not posted pictures from our bridal show adventures, we have had a blast. At a bridal show with Expobridal (whom we highly recommend) there was a gentleman there that does podcasts for weddings. He interviewed all the vendors, and we were lucky enough to be chosen for his highlight podcast of the bridal show. You can listen to the podcast here I believe we are about 5 minutes into the podcast. Take a listen, let us know what you think!

Our next bridal show is this weekend, and we will post pictures!

Adrienne & Frank - Hotel Laguna

After a few years in wedding photography throughout all of Southern California, we have found a couple venues that we would recommend to our brides. From San Diego to Los Angeles we have scouted venues, finding the perfect scenic backdrops at Upland Hills Country Club, Green River Golf Course, Hidden Valley Golf Course, The Castaway, California Baptist University, Mission Inn, The Mitten Building, University of Redlands, Monteleone Meadows, and UCLA, just to name a few.

Wedding photography, in particular, can highlight all the fantastic architecture and scenery at the venue .Hotel Laguna is definitely one of them! Adrienne and Frank got married mid-July at Hotel Laguna on perhaps one of the hottest days of the year. Adrienne was a great sport, and despite melting most of the day, she gleamed from ear to ear as her eyes locked with Franky's when she walked down the aisle. Sparks flew as if it was July 4th, and we were glad to be there to capture their love for each other.

Corynn & Mark - The "I Do's"

Corynn and Mark chose the best day to get married: June 5. Why is that the best day? That is our anniversary! How special it was to celebrate Corynn and Mark's love on our 4th wedding anniversary! Corynn and Mark had a private ceremony at Saint Timothy's and then headed to Heisler Park for a ring ceremony on the beach. The cloudy day proved to be beautifully painted backdrops. Here are a few of our favorites from the day.





















We send a belated apology for the tardiness of this post. We are still trying to settle in the move smack dab in the middle of wedding season!

Busy, Busy, Busy, Busy...There's so much to do!

In a world of instant gratification and constant updates (twitter and facebook) 40 days of no blogging is like committing virtual suicide. Have no fear our virtual followers! Nick Corona Photography is alive and kicking - perhaps a little too hard! We have moved locations to beautiful South Corona, CA; where... wait for it... we have an incredible downstairs studio/consultation room!!

In the midst of our move, Kara got croup, which is an infection in the throat and vocal chords. Then, somewhere in there we managed to shoot a few weddings, capture several engagement sessions and spend a little time with some awesome folks for portraits.

On our trip to Tennessee we were able to take some senior pictures for Taylor and some new pictures for Billy Huddleston's CD covers/inserts, flyers and posters. It was an awesome trip, but the Tennessee humidity made us extremely thankful for California weather!

Here are a few pictures from our sessions in Tennessee that made it onto our "Favorites" list.
