When I heard that Lindsay and Mark planned a beach wedding for early April, I was a little worried about the weather. But when I woke up Saturday morning to a gorgeous sunshine-y day, I was so thrilled for them and even more pumped to shoot their big day.  Jeannie Savage of Details, Details planned an absolutely exquisite wedding at The Montage Resort in Laguna Beach.  Jeannie, along with the incredibly talented and oh-so-nice team at R. Jack Balzathar, designed this amazing wedding for the delightful Lindsay and Mark.  Overall, I was very blessed to work with such a darling couple and an amazing team of vendors.
