Doug & Liz’s Falkirk Mansion Wedding | San Rafael Wedding Photographer

We just love all the smiles and laughs in Doug and Liz’s wedding photos. The smiles on EVERYONE’s faces said it all — it was a sweet celebration of Doug and Liz’s love and lifetime commitment to each other, and it was a fun party! These two are the kind of couple who spread positive energy to everyone around them. Their exceptionally dapper little pup Tank was happy to receive lots of attention, especially during the ceremony, and we got some cute shots of him. [ read more … ]

Sara & Michael’s South San Francisco Backyard Wedding | Bay Area Wedding Photographer

Sara and Michael held their beautiful backyard wedding at Sara’s mom’s lovely house in South San Francisco. I can’t think of a more meaningful way for the couple to celebrate their memorable day than to be surrounded by all their close friends and family in the home where the bride grew up. You’ll have to see it to believe it — with the help of family and friends, they turned their humble abode into a romantic and stunning wedding venue! The colorful floral arrangements, the amazing assorted cakes(!!!), the handwritten wedding signs, and the romantic twinkle cafe lights all came together to make this wedding special and FULL of love! And beyond that, what made this wedding truly unique were the personal touches: the wedding rings, handcrafted by Michael’s father with a diamond passed down through the family; the surprise musical performance by the family; and even Michael’s great Darth Vader Star Wars tie! Browse their wedding photos below and join us in wishing them a happy lifetime together!

Kim & Brandon’s Wedding at Long Branch Saloon and Farms | Half Moon Bay Wedding Photographer

Have you ever met a couple for the first time yet felt that they were your longtime friends? Meet Kim and Brandon! They were madly in love and super laid-back and fun. And on top of all that, Kim is a singer and song writer (anyone who knows me would know how important singing is to me)! When Kim sang the song called “Feels Like Home” for Brandon during their ceremony, it touched my heart and I teared up. Her voice was beautiful!! Kim and Brandon made a lot of the wedding details themselves and we loved the Western-themed details throughout the whole wedding. Loved how they incorporated their baby dog Django into the cake topper 🙂 [ read more … ]

Tina & Marty’s Wedding at Boundary Oak Golf Club | Walnut Creek Wedding Photographer

I’ve been waiting for Tina and Marty’s big day since their engagement shoot this summer. They’re a super lovely couple and their wedding ceremony has been the most emotional one I’ve shot so far! T&M wanted to keep the traditions but also couldn’t wait to spend a few minutes with each other before the ceremony, so they opted for a “first touch” — meeting each other back-to-back under a tree without looking. It was such a perfect choice for them! Romantic and personal, yet keeping all the emotion and surprises for the moment Tina walked down the aisle with her parents. It was their love and trust for each other that made everyone cry at the ceremony and it was a beautiful moment to witness and share with you all.

Congratulations, Tina and Marty!
