ABC Orange County

This past week, I had the opportunity to photograph the Orange County Chapter of Association of Bridal Consultant’s January meet-up where a handful of wedding industry professionals came together to showcase their talents and services. While the first portion of the evening was a meet and greet with delectable appetizers and beverages, the rest of the evening included a lovely dinner catered by the beautiful venue, Aliso Viejo Conference Center, and then a few rounds of “speed networking.” While all of this was going on, I had the lovely privilege of sitting back and photographing the event and all the BEAUTIFUL details…. thanks to the ever-so-talented Cori Sponagle of Events by Cori. What was cool about this event was that it was designed to create community within the wedding industry and to provide opportunities to make connections with other vendors who share your similar vision. I got to meet many talented videographers, coordinators, DJ’s, caterers, florists, designers, and many others…. and I have to say, I had a good time!

Here’s a taste of the evening….

I have to add this quick note… look how AMAZING the room looks with professional lighting!! If you’re ever curious about how to transform an ordinary room into a much fancier area…. I’d HIGHLY consider hiring a pro lighting company.
