Malibu Event Photographer | Pepperdine University Give2Pepp Giving Day Photography

3/10/2020

 
Picture

Here we've got a beautiful set of event coverage photos, showcasing one of the many awesome events Pepperdine University held to encourage students, staff and the broader community to build community around a common goal: fundraising. For Pepperdine's annual Give2Pepp day, a week full of festivities rolls out, bringing the community together and encouraging individuals to make their gifts—large and small—count for a bigger purpose.

One of these events was free In-N-Out for all takers. Students and staff lined up to have fun giving to the university and scarf down double-doubles in return.

You can support Pepperdine University's Give2Pepp campaign year round by donating via Venmo to @give2pepp

Malibu Commercial Event Photographer | Pepperdine School of Law Tacos and Giving Day

This set of photojournalist-style event photos showcases the details, setting, and experience of an event at Pepperdine's Caruso School of Law back in March. Pepperdine University relies on gifts from individual donors to support scholarships and the many meaningful programs they offer their students. To that end, once a year, the university encourages its community (students, staff, and friends) to give back through the Give2Pepp campaign. These images will be used for digital and print storytelling, social media, and to promote giving in future years.

Malibu Retreat Photographer | Los Angeles Commercial Photography

Getting away from the bustle of modern life and unplugging from technology is an important self care activity for any college student. To that end, Pepperdine University's chaplain plans an annual spiritual life retreat for students to unplug and recharge before the spring semester gets underway.

These photos serve to tell the story of the Unplugged Retreat, so students in future years understand what to expect and how the experience will impact them beyond the confines of the weekend.

Malibu Event Photography | Malibu Beach Inn Champagne Meditasting with Influencers

2/27/2019

What the heck is a meditasting? Part meditation, part champagne tasting, I can't explain it any better than Forbes magazine did on their list of "Most Unusual Wine Experiences in Los Angeles" :

"Only in California would someone think to mix champagne with channeling your mantra. Malibu Beach Inn recently started offering "meditastings" in the private Carbon Beach Club dining room, where sippers are guided by "award-winning thought leader and intuitive coach Cassandra Bodzak" on a meditation-based intake of Henriot Champagnes. The experience combines tasting directions with mindfulness techniques and meditation as Bodzak ushers guests into "a higher place of mindfulness, tranquility, and serenity." Reaching Champagne-nirvana takes roughly one hour and can be done for up to four people per room. Available to hotel guests only for $600 plus room rate." 

Clear as a champagne flute? Even if you don't totally get it, you've gotta admit these photos (shot by yours truly) are pretty fire.

Malibu Wedding Photography | Allison and Dan's Triunfo Creek Vineyard Wedding

7/8/2017

Allison and Dan's wedding was an East Coast meets West Coast affair. Having lived in New York for the last several years, their love story and their crowd of friends hails from back east. Allison's roots and their future, however, is out west (they're moving to the LA area soon), so they decided to say their vows in a beautiful Catholic church and then follow it up with a beautiful outdoor reception in true So Cal wedding style—in a vineyard.

Malibu Beach Wedding Photography | Lauren & Bjorn's Wedding at Gladstones

4/25/2016

 
Any couple from Minnesota who plans a wedding on the beach in Southern California is risking a lot. What will the weather be like? Will our friends and family really all buy plane tickets to fly across the country for this? How will we plan the logistics? Where can we find an officiant? A florist? A photographer? But Lauren and Bjorn didn't let the fear of the unknown stop them. They decided to go for it. This incredible couple wanted to say their vows and celebrate their commitment to one another in a location where they had vacationed and made lots of memories—Malibu, California.

And you know what happened?

​It was perfect. 

The weather was beautiful. The friends and family DID fly across the country to celebrate. They figured out all the details (and Gladstones helped!) And I'm beyond grateful for the wise and all-knowing Google for leading Lauren to find me online. 
Lauren and Bjorn's wedding was special due in large part to their ability to let go of the details and just immerse themselves in the moments of the day. As the photographer, I was able to witness countless moments of friendship, affection & genuine love between Lauren, Bjorn, their boys & their families. 

And after spending an evening partying with a bunch of MinnesOOOOtans, I'm convinced that whole state is full of genuine smiles and warm hearts. 

Thanks Lauren & Bjorn for including me in your sun-kissed celebration! 

Venue & Food: Gladstones Restaurant, Malibu 
Officiant: Greg Daum 
Special Music: Taylor Begert
Photography: Cecily Breeding (that's me!) 
Flowers: Sea Lily Malibu

Erica & Nick | Padua Hills Theatre, Claremont, CA Wedding Photography

4/10/2016

 
Where do I even start? Like the two of them, Erica & Nick's gorgeous Claremont, CA, wedding on Friday, April Fools' Day, was anything but ordinary. Erica & Nick met in acting class and have been together more than 10 years. Their deep connection with one another is palpable whenever they are in the same room.

They wanted their wedding to be an expression of who they are as a couple: unconventional, authentic, and FUN. As a actor, model & hard core yoga instructor (former lululemon athletica ambassador too!), Erica loves to break the rules. Wedding gown? Nah.... Short white dress with pockets. Veil?... Why? Flowers? Nah... DIY wire "bouquet" creations & pins instead of boutonnieres. Party favors? .... clown noses!! You get the picture.

Most couples follow tradition and spend the wedding day hiding from one another until their first look. Not Erica and Nick! They arrived to the venue together and spent the hours before the ceremony talking and sharing laughs before the guests arrived.

Thank you, Erica & Nick, for inviting me to document these images, and be part of your incredible wedding day!
