Janet and Brent's Wedding

Janet Glide and Brent Hull tied the knot at the Hull Ranch on 07.18.09. Before we headed out to the ranch, we met Janet at her parents house out on Glide Ranch for some getting ready shots.

The shoes.


Janet looked stunning.


The girls.


The breeze sure did feel refreshing that day.


The guys were out at the ranch when we arrived and were ready to take pictures. These guys did a rad jumping shot!


I've been to many weddings, but none like this. While Brent and the rest of the bridal party walked down the aisle...guests were cheering them on. So much love in the air. It was awesome.


Mr. and Mrs. Brent Hull sharing an intimate moment.

Valerie Stevens Portrait Session at the Davis Arboretum

It took Valerie and I one and one half years to make this session and it was awesome. We had a great time with Valerie and Dolan. They were married January 2008 and were given a gift certificate for a portrait session. These are, in a sense, what Valerie called "her engagement pics".

Dolan was such a sport even though he thought we were gonna torture him on the onset. However, as the session went out he started busting out with the jokes and coming up with ideas for locations and poses.

Here are some of our favs:








Mason's Portrait Session

Friday night DJ and I went over to Jill Orr's house to photograph her grandson, Mason. Mom, Alyssa, was there to baby wrangle and it went great. Jill has an awesome backyard which gave us several locations to use. It was very hard to limit myself to these few images.

Arianna's studio fairy portrait and more....

I have known Arianna since she was a "little" girl, since she was about 12 I would guess. We used to live out in the cuts as neighbors. Those were good times with bonfires and BBQs. We even had a concert once with a band from Benicia! Needless to say, I have been taking photos of her for it seems like forever.

Anyways, I did Arianna's senior portraits in February 2006, photos and slideshow are here,
and haven't really seen her since then. We had a chance to get together the other night at the studio to play around with Arianna modeling in some different sets for me.

As you can see, she has grown into a lovely young woman and made a gorgeous fairy.


We also did some Hollywood Glamour type sets.


This is so Bridget Bardot to me, don't know why.


Thanks for coming by Ari, can't wait for another session.

Join us on July 9 for our open house

Heather and Blake's Wedding in Dixon

Heather and Blake were married on June 27, the hottest day we've had this summer so far. Despite the heat everyone had a great time and the celebration was rockin'.

Alisson Lowrie let us use her house for a few images of the girls before the ceremony. Her porch works awesome.

Meanwhile, at Bre and Robert McGrew's ranch (location of the ceremony and reception) Ryan was working with the guys.

It was interesting to see when editing the images that at just about the same time I was taking this image,

Ryan was taking this one:

We thought the reflection of the wedding party in the canal was pretty nice.


On to some shots of just Blake and Heather.



Blake was all smiles.

On the way to the reception.

The cake was awesome!

The rings.

First dance.
