I’m so glad I got to photograph Gemma and Martin’s wedding since I know her sister from our college newspaper days at the UCLA Daily Bruin. I feel like a family friend at most of the weddings I photograph and this time I really was one. The intimate wedding was at a beautiful family home nestled in the hills overlooking San Mateo.

Gemma’s almost ready:

I recently photographed Christine and Micah’s wedding at their family’s ranch in Salinas. It was so fun and relaxed that I felt like I was spending quality time with old friends while taking pictures. Christine and Micah are super sweet and have a ton of love for their friends and family.

I photographed Katie and Matt’s wedding at Wente Vineyards last month. What a beautiful spot tucked away in the Livermore Valley. It was a perfect day for an outdoor wedding and reception.

I recently photographed Margaret and Kevin’s wedding at Atwood Ranch in Glen Ellen just outside of Sonoma. It was an intimate wedding in an amazing setting on a wonderful day.

For each table, a poem and for each guest, a book to take home:
