Howdy friends!

Team Atrero has been cooking up some new images in the lab. We had the awesome pleasure of documenting Suzette and Mike’s wedding at the lovely Estancia La Jolla Hotel & Spa recently. Enjoy!

Botanica over in Little Italy put together all the awesome floral designs that day. We totally dig their work and highly recommend them!

The grounds over at the Estancia are beautiful year round and make our job way too easy.

The good folks over at Flour Power did a wonderful job on the yummy cake.

Savvy Bride made sure the decor was off the hook.

A beautiful performance of traditional Muslim-Filipino dance. Some modern Filipino dances can be found here.

Stogies made to order!
