Alvaro and Kayla got married on a windy March day in Ridgecrest – they had a beautiful ceremony at the All Faith Chapel right before Palm Sunday so the chapel was beautifully decorated! It was open, bright, and had awesome stained glass windows. They also had a mariachi band playing at their ceremony; that was a sweet touch! After the ceremony, we went over to the Village Retreat for family, wedding party, and couples photos. The flowers were in full bloom and the area was just secluded enough to keep out the wind.
Finally, we entered into a large, welcoming reception at the Kerr McGee hall with the same mariachi band from earlier! Everyone had a blast and partied into the night. 😉 Kayla and Alvaro, thanks again for having us! We had such a good time and loved getting to experience some new traditions!
Baby Ada joined us in our studio a few months back and she was just perfect! She slept for us and went for all the poses we had in mind. 😉 We love our repeat families and we even got to photograph Ada’s older sister Maya when she was a newborn! Thank you Mondragons for returning to us year after year!
This sweet little gal turned one last March and we took some photos to commemorate this stage! She has the prettiest blue eyes and liked exploring. Thanks for sharing her with us for the afternoon!
