I grew up in #carlsbad so I consider myself a local, even after making the “big leap” to #oceanside about 20 years ago, Carlsbad is still home to me. It makes it all the more special getting to do what I love in my hometown…if I could get married all over again, I think this palette has stolen my heart! These pastels during sunset were literally glowing 😍 #carlsbad #carlsbadwedding #carlsbadweddings #carlsbadweddingvenue #carlsbadweddingphotographers #carlsbadweddingphotography #weddingphotoscarlsbad #carlsbadlocal #carlsbadlocalbusiness #pastelwedding #pastelweddingflorals #beachywedding #bohowedding #bohoweddingphotographer #pink @mkl_images shooting for @truephotographyandvideo
