Evelyn + Jun | Married!

July 30, 2008 – 8:47 pm

We got to spend Saturday with Evelyn and Jun at their wedding at the Elizabeth Gamble Garden. It was a beautiful garden, a warm Summer day with lots in bloom:

We started out the day with Evelyn in a gorgeous traditional outfit for some portraits and a tea ceremony:

I think almost every guy learns how to tie their first tie as part of a wedding:

Some portraits in the wedding dress before the ceremony:

Seriously how cute are these kids?!?

Thanks you so much for sharing your day with us! Congrats!!

Melissa + Jon | Married!

July 9, 2008 – 4:22 pm

We spent our 4th of July shooting Melissa and Jon’s fantastic wedding at the Flood Mansion. We are actually friends with Melissa and Jon, and with many of the people in/at the wedding, so it was fun shooting with people you know around, although you have to fight the urge to start dancing even more than usual! :-)

They put together a beautiful wedding and had a total “Classic Hollywood” feel to the day. I really wanted the images to have that same sort of feel. I say Mission Accomplished! :-)

I was such a Happy Photographer when I saw the long gloves, birdcage veil, and bright red lipstick!

That bright red lipstick can be messy!

Luckily Jon came prepared! :-)

The Ladies:

The Gentlemen: OK you might be wondering why there is a lobster in with the headshots. No, I have not lost it, it is a stand in for one of the groomsmen who couldn’t be there the day of. Hi Josh! I think he had a better time than anyone when it came time to dance. He certainly was popular. :-)

I absolutely adore the portraits from this wedding. Some of my all time favs:

Yum!

Thanks Melissa and Jon for sharing your day with us, and Congrats!!!

May + Nader | Married!

July 2, 2008 – 8:34 pm

This past Sunday we spent the day with May and Nader. They had a lovely, intimate wedding at the Shakespeare Gardens in Golden Gate Park. I had quite a bit of portrait time with the couple so we did some exploring in the area, and found some pretty memorable spots.

Nader and his sis:

We had a great time with you both, and we hope you’re enjoying Paris & Turkey! Have some Pierre Hermé for Malarie and I! :-)

Christine + Stephen | Engagements!

June 26, 2008 – 9:00 am

We had a fantastic Engagement Session here in San Francisco on Sunday morning. Starting at 6AM matter of fact! Getting to know Christine and Stephen a bit better, and making the shots was worth the sleep deprivation!

I couldn’t decide whether I liked BW or color better for these next couple so I’m delivering both. Leave me a comment and let me know which you like better:

Thanks Christine and Stephen! We’re looking forward to your wedding in August!

Lan + Kiyomi | Married!

June 24, 2008 – 5:14 pm

This past Saturday we had the absolute pleasure of getting to spend our day at Kiyomi and Lan’s Wedding in Berkeley. You may remember them from their Engagement session. They are as much fun as ever, and that part of their personalities radiated all day.

Check her out!

How cute is this guy:

Sneaking a peek:

They gave me some time to make some great portraits, so we took advantage and I found a spot with a killer view of San Francisco:

Sorry ladies, the guy in middle is taken. I’m not sure about the other two though. :-)

The flowers were by Moe’s Flowers in Berkeley:

The bridesmaids did an awesome hat dance! Love it!

They brought some mean moves to the dance floor! They had a fantastic routine worked out for their 1st dance.

There was a photo booth complete with costumes, and I caught the happy couple. I just stuck my lens in the curtain, not sure if they knew I was there or not.

Kiyomi and Lan, we’ve had so much fun working with you guys that we’re sad there’s no more shooting to do! Congratulations, and have a fabulous honeymoon in Japan!
