What an unbelievably amazing exhibit that we stumbled across. Here on vacation and decided we would go to the Long Beach museum of Art but had no idea that they had a Robert Williams exhibit until we got there. What an AMAZING exhibit it was! Also, It was Friday so they had half price tickets at $7.50 and I spent a good hour and a half in there. Just taking in the art. Can't wait to see what kind of exhibits they will have up next time we are in town.

The Long Beach Museum of Art is such a hidden gem for weddings. The ceremony overlooking the ocean is breathtaking, and the gardens and terraces create a natural flow for guests to enjoy the celebration. Inside, the gallery spaces bring an unexpected creative touch—I loved seeing a couple step away for portraits framed by vibrant artwork, which felt like a blend of fine art and personal storytelling. From a photography standpoint, the variety of backdrops is unmatched: ocean views, clean modern interiors, and intimate evening lighting strung across the courtyard. It allowed me to capture an entire wedding day with so much diversity in the visuals, all without ever leaving the property. If you’re looking for a venue that feels both elevated and personal, the LBMA really delivers. It’s easily one of my favorite places to photograph a wedding.
