Wayfarers Chapel Rancho Palos Verdes | Wedding Photography

The only truly "natural" chapel in southern California is the Wayfarers Chapel in Rancho Palos Verdes. It is built on the principles of Organic Architecture and actually inspires peace as you walk around the premises. The chapel is built with nothing but wood, rock and glass and rises in the midst of redwood trees overlooking the Pacific Ocean. Beautiful! Although I have worked as lead photographer for weddings at the Wayfarers Chapel in Rancho Palos Verdes, this time I was pleased to be a guest at a friend's wedding. Getting pictures on the outside of Wayfarers Chapel is tricky because it is entirely engulfed by redwood trees, but since this wedding was at night I couldn't take outside shots anyway ;) The ceiling of the Wayfarers Chapel is a combination of glass panels and wood so the hope for a night time wedding is a starry night . . .


You can see how beautiful the Wayfarers Chapel In Rancho Palos Verdes is! No comparison. After I took those first pictures, I was informed by the coordinator that guests are not allowed to take ANY pictures during the ceremony! WHA?! The professional photographer was stuck completely in the back of the chapel (another rule) so I decided to take the risk of ejection and snapped a few. No flash required in this photojournalistic style . . .



Invite a professional wedding photographer to your wedding as a guest! It is a great way to get free pictures ;)
