The region's tranquility and versatility of venues create a magical ambiance that's perfect for an intimate wedding ceremony. Aliya and Matt shared their first look and wedding portraits in the beautiful coastal woods next to the Pacific Ocean and Moonstone Beach.
This chuppah set up was held on the property at Oceanpoint Ranch across the street from the Pacific Ocean and down the road from the guest rooms. Aliya and Matt used a family heirloom chuppah held by friends and family members while they exchanged vows and their first kiss in Cambria.
Oceanpoint Ranch is an ocean front property in Cambria that is available for small intimate weddings with small guest counts. The outdoor area is perfect for a small dinner set up with bar, but be warned that the ocean air can get chilly at night!
Aliya and matt also asked me to add in a little bit of 35mm film, when i was just starting to experiment with film. i'm so happy they did and i got some great film images for them.
