Bel-Air Bay Club Wedding
Stephanie & DJ
Some weddings just have that magic, and Stephanie and Dj’s Bel-Air Bay Club wedding was one of them. From the very start, their energy was contagious, their love was undeniable, and their day was filled with so much joy.
The morning was all about excitement and happy chaos. Stephanie and her girls were getting ready, sipping champagne in silky blush pajamas, laughing one minute and tearing up the next. You could feel the love in the room—it was the kind of morning that every bride dreams of.
I took a moment to capture all the little details—her sparkly heels, the elegant invitations, and, of course, her stunning engagement ring. Every piece told a part of her story.
Meanwhile, DJ was getting ready with his groomsmen, looking sharp in a classic black tux. He was calm but you could tell—he could not wait to see Stephanie.
The Morning Buzz:
Laughter, Champagne & Happy Tears
Then came one of my favorite moments—the first look. Stephanie stepped out in her sleek, off-the-shoulder gown, looking like she had just stepped out of a movie. The second Dj turned around and saw her, his face completely lit up. It was one of those moments where you could literally feel the love. They hugged, whispered something only they could hear, and just soaked it all in. It was real, raw, and beautiful.
The First Look: A Moment They’ll Never Forget
Stephanie and Dj’s wedding party was a total vibe—elegant, fun, and full of energy. The bridesmaids looked stunning in black dresses, and the groomsmen rocked timeless tuxedos. The whole crew was hyped, cheering for them and making sure their day was filled with nothing but love. We snapped some fun shots, capturing their excitement before heading to the ceremony.

And then, the moment everyone had been waiting for.
Their ceremony took place on the lush green lawn of Bel-Air Bay Club, with a flower-covered arch and the ocean stretching behind them. The light was perfect, the air was warm, and every single person there was soaked into the moment.
As the couple exchanged vows, tears were shed, smiles were shared, and love filled the air. When they sealed it with a kiss, the crowd erupted in cheers. It was pure, joyful, and unforgettable.
The Ceremony
Inside the Bel-Air Bay Club, their reception space was straight-up breathtaking—soft candlelight, towering floral centerpieces, and a warm, romantic glow. The music started, the dance floor filled up, and the rest of the night was a blur of laughter, dancing, and endless celebration.
So Cal Sunset Magic & Dancing the Night Away
Golden hour hit just as we snuck away for some stunning portraits. Stephanie’s veil floated in the breeze, Dj pulled her in close, and for a few minutes, it was just the two of them, lost in the moment. Then, it was time to celebrate.
Stephanie and Dj’s wedding was full of life, love, and energy. And as their photographer, I can honestly say it was one of those days you never forget.
Here’s to forever, laughter, and the kind of love that lights up a room!
