A & F’s Wedding | Bay Area Same Sex Wedding Photographer

A & F’s wedding ceremony was held in the Santa Clara county chapel. It was a very touching one – there was not a dry eye in the room and their friend did an amazing job by singing All of Me to conclude the ceremony! The reception was then held at the rooftop patio at the Loft Bar & Bistro where many more of their friends joined in.

A & F, I adore the deep love between you, and I wish you two (and the little plus one that is on the way) all the best!! Congrats 🙂

Fred & Jessica’s Wedding at the Outdoor Art Club | Mill Valley Photographer

Fred & Jessica flew in from the East Coast for their wedding in Marin County three weeks ago. Their wedding was a special one, with the ceremony being held under a canopy built by their family. The Outdoor Art Club‘s event coordinator did a great job with the beautiful floral arrangements, and I really loved Jessica’s stunning dress, especially from the back! Congrats to Fred & Jessica and the entire family!

Violet Smashing the Cake | Bay Area Baby Birthday Photography

Little Violet is one year old! She is OH SO adorable!! I LOVE everything of this cake smashing set up. Everything is, literally, violet — the banner, the cake, the blanket, the necklace, the hair bands, and even the custom made diaper! Little Violet certainly enjoyed that cake as she flipped it over and smashed the whole thing 🙂

Happy birthday Violet!

Norwood Family Photos at Mitchell Park | Palo Alto Family Portrait Photographer

The Norwood family recently moved to California from Texas, and I’m thrilled to shoot their yearly family photos for 2014! Peter and Jeannette are a sweet couple and Aaron was full of energy and climbed on everything he could in that park 🙂 And I have to say, Aaron was quite the model — I didn’t have to pose him or anything, my camera just loved him!

Peter, Jeannette and Aaron, welcome to the Bay Area!

Grace & Peyton’s Engagement Photos | Palo Alto Foothills Park Photography

Grace & Peyton are from Georgia and went to the same elementary school… how cute! They studied in college together and later moved to California. They’re having their wedding in Athens (like David & me!), and even though they just got engaged, they’re SO on top of all the wedding planning. Their wedding photographer will definitely be in for a real treat — it can’t get better than shooting the wedding of a beautiful sweet couple who have all the details carefully planned!
