Tiffani + Gabe = They Did July 5, 2008!

Ryan grabbed this shot of Tiff taking it easy before the ceremony.


The girls were a lot of fun and wanted some shots with their shades on.

Gabe and the guys were up for some posing also.


Tiffani did such a good job picking on the details, like the flowers she chose. I had never seen anything like this boutonniere before.

The ceremony and reception took place at Wente Vineyards in Livermore. The location was absolutely stunning.

Of course we had to walk over to the vineyards for a couple romantic photos.

As always, our shadow shot.

Tiffani had a cute little tattoo on her right foot just peeking out of her shoe so we wanted to capture it.

The cake was also done by Wente. We really liked the monogram they chose for a topper.

Back down to the vineyard for the ring shot.

Ambiance is everything!

Slideshow is *here* with lots more great images......

Alene + Jerry = they will October 18, 2008

Ryan and I drove down to Pacifica on Thursday evening for Alene and Jerry's engagement session. The weather was a little cold and foggy but a welcome relief from the heat here in the valley. I loved so many images from this session that I couldn't narrow down to one or two for the blog, so here are my many favs. Alene took us to her brother's beach house, which was an awesome location for photos as you can see.








The wedding will be held at the Jefferson Street Mansion and we can't wait!

Joji + Corbin

Joji and Corbin were married on July 4th (Happy Birthday Mom!!) in Woodside, CA at a place called Mountain Terrace. It's very secluded up in the hills with a nice little view of the bay. Rose and I were a little concerned about the weather because of the fog on mountains close by, but it turned out to be great weather! This is a photo of Joji before making her way down the aisle...


And our groom...


Joji's final steps before becoming a "Mrs."


Right when the ceremony ended people blew bubbles which I thought was cool...


The wedding party...


Love love love this silhouette of them!


The yummy cake...


And the rings...


Everyone gathering around for the cake cutting...


The ring bearers were too funny. When I saw them picking up Rose pedals an idea struck and I wanted them to throw all the pedals they had gathered into the air. I got the shot on the first round but they would gather the pedals again and want me to take their photo throwing pedals in the air. This happened throughout the night but I enjoyed it so I had to include a photo on the blog. :)


Best Wishes Joji and Corbin!! :D

Jenn + Bryan

Jenn and Bryan were married on June 21, 2008 in Murphy's, CA. The weather was being odd throughout the day but it ended up being perfect. I got up in the morning to go along with all the guys for golfing, here we see Bryan's way of getting ready...


Then Rose and I met up with the girls at the salon and we see Jenn's way of getting ready :)


A photo of our stunning bride!


The carriage was a surprise to everyone which was a pretty rad surprise if you ask me.


The ceremony was filled with bird's chirping, lots of laughter, and happy emotions.

Off to Murphy's!

Jenn and Bryan had their wedding weekend in Murphy's, CA. Rose and I drove up there on Friday so we could be there for the rehearsal. We had a terrific time at their Engagement Session so we couldn't wait for their weekend! As you can see by the photos below, happy emotions were starting :)




Jenn's dad was watching from across the little stream of water while Lynn, the wedding coordinator was making sure everything was running smoothly.


Candid moment after the rehearsal..


After the rehearsal we went into downtown Murphy's to a restaurant where this bottle of wine was passed around for people to sign. There are 2 bottles and they are to be opened only on a special occasion of Jenn and Brian's. :)
