Katie & Brian’s San Ramon Backyard Wedding Ceremony
Eight months into the pandemic with still no slowdown of the virus in sight, Katie and Brian still managed to have their wedding on their original wedding day — though as you might imagine, much of it had to be re-planned! Instead of a large indoor wedding, they ended up having a very small backyard ceremony. And for us, it was quite enjoyable both to photograph as well as just to witness. There’s really nothing quite so intimate and contemporary like Katie and Brian’s tiny, socially-distanced, live-streamed, backyard wedding! [ read more … ]
Michelle & Bajis’s Intimate Wedding at The Club at Ruby Hill
Bajis and Michelle’s wedding was a perfect day — elegantly styled, warmly personal, and thoughtfully socially-distanced. Even in hindsight, it’s almost unbelievable that this whole event was put together in a month and a half, after their first two venues and plans didn’t work out due to the pandemic. In addition to the family & friends who attended in person, a wider audience joined in on Zoom to celebrate together virtually. All in all, while on its surface it had the hallmarks of a 2020 wedding, at its core, Michelle and Bajis’s intimate wedding at The Club at Ruby Hill was a most timeless celebration of love and union.

Laura Beth & Andrew’s “Lemonade” Zoom Wedding at The Trident
We met Laura Beth & Andrew almost a year and a half ago, back when the world was still humming along and everyone was doing the now-unthinkable — like gathering in groups and giving out hugs! 😱 Yeah, crazy times, I know. When it became clear a few months back that their meticulously-planned wedding would be disrupted, Laura Beth and Andrew decided to rethink it all and distill their wedding celebration down to what really mattered: a memorialization of love between the two of them, witnessed by their family & friends both near and far. As a result, they completely reimagined their wedding day and turned it the most fun and interactive Zoom wedding ever! [ read more … ]
Al-Lee & Charles’s Micro-Wedding at Gardener Ranch
Like almost all of our 2020 brides and grooms, Al-Lee and Charles had to postpone their celebration due to the coronavirus. But they just couldn’t wait to actually get married!
