Real Weddings: Alissa + Ryan

Over the next few days, to help close out what has been an unbelievable 2009, I have asked some of my favorite photographers to share images from their favorite weddings of the year. The unbelievably kind and talented Jose Villa shared Alissa and Ryan’s San Ysidro Ranch wedding.

Jose’s images are so gorgeous that I’m going to let them speak for themselves…

The tumbleweeds were handpicked by Alissa’s mother and father in West Texas and shipped to California for the wedding.  Such a unique and personal addition to the decor!
