All year… that’s how long we had been waiting for Kelly & Brendan’s wedding. From beginning to end, their wedding was one of our most fun, exciting, and elegant, not to mention having the absolute sweetest and cutest couple as hosts! [ read more … ]

Annie and I flew to the east coast last month for Maylene & Alejandro’s Fairmont Pittsburgh hotel wedding. That weekend marked many “firsts” for us (we had never been to Pennsylvania!), but the biggest one is that it was our first time photographing a close friend’s wedding. We normally get to know all of our couples pretty well by the time we show up on their wedding day, but it’s really a different experience to look through the lens and focus on every expression, every smile, and every tear for someone we’ve known for half our lives… and I’m so glad we did it!

Maylene & Alejandro’s wedding was everything. [ read more … ]

Traci & Alex’s Elliston Vineyards wedding was a blast. We’ve really enjoyed getting to know them as a couple, and my favorite part of their story was how Alex proposed to Traci at the top of Half Dome!! Their good friends who hiked with them took some great photos of the memorable occasion, and we’re glad they did. (And photographing a proposal at Half Dome is now on my goals list!) [ read more … ]

After visiting many venues, Joe and Bernadete ended up falling in love with the little chapel at the Long Branch Saloon and Farms in Half Moon Bay. Their wedding day was beautiful and it was the most intimate little wedding — just the two of them, the officiant, and me, and it couldn’t have been more sweet and emotional! The way they looked at each other with so much love and respect made them so easy for me to photograph! [ read more … ]

Monica & Eric had their very intimate wedding at the Toll House Hotel with their family and a few of their closest friends. When we first met, Monica recounted how Eric proposed, how he was “acting really weird” but sweet, and I knew from how in love they were that we’d have a great time photographing their Los Gatos wedding.
