San Diego Wedding Photographers: Kristen and Vladimir met as pen pals. Vladimir is from St. Petersburg, Russia; Kristen from Phoenix, Arizona. Vladimir is in the US Navy. He has served as an Aviation Machinist Mate and is currently a Recruiter in Phoenix. They decided to have their wedding on base at Coronado Island in San Diego. What a beautiful summer destination for their wedding! Private golden sandy beaches, the Pacific, and a fantastic sunset. At the end of the day, since we’re all about customer service and provide full day coverage, Kristen wanted to “trash the dress” in the ocean, so we did.
