Quinceanera Photo Shoot

It is very usual to do a photo shoot on the XV day. In this case we did the Photo Shoot before the ceremony but you could also do it after.

For this photo shoot we went to Balboa park, it does not really rain in San Diego but this day it did. It was pouring while we were at the Quinceanera’s house and it calmed down a bit after so we decided to head to Balboa Park to get some pictures at the covered parts of the park.

Here you can see the water on the ground.

She was accompanied by her damas. They wore beautiful matching pale pink dresses and they had bouquets with blue roses to match the Quinceanera’s dress. Here you can see the Quinceanera and her 7 Damas.

The church is so big and I absolutely love how it was decorated, all with natural white roses and the aisle was decorated with fabric on white and blue, of course to match the Quinceanera’s dress.

And of course I had to include a picture of the Dama’s bouquets

The rest of the table setups was with a white table cloth and blue napkins and the centerpieces were natural roses.

And because I love taking sunset pictures and the sun was going down right when the Quinceanera was waiting to walk in the Hall I took a couple of quick pictures with her denim jacket, an urban city background and that characteristic San Diego sunset.
