It’s been a busy couple of months as we are in the midst of busy wedding season! This weekend, I drove over 200 miles to shoot an engagement session at Carmel - so, as you can see, my blog has been seriously lagging!

This entry is my attempt to catch up with my previous three weddings.

Jessica and Steve….

We got to know Jessica and Steve because we photographed Jessica’s grandparent’s 60th anniversary a couple of years ago. So, it was with great honor that we were asked to shoot their wedding at their grandparent’s home - where Jessica’s parents also were married years back.

Jessica’s parents posed under the same tree during their wedding - so it was befitting that we replicated the photo.

Sara and Doug

Lan and David

What do you get when your wedding involves the following:

- a 12 hour photo coverage

- 8 bridesmaids

- 8 groomsmen

- a Rolls Royce for the bride and groom

- a rented cable car to tour around SF for bridal party photos

- a stunngingly decorated Julia Morgan Ballroom

Answer:

- A very tired photographer at the end of the day.

- And lots of amazing photos to show for it.

On with the photos….

It’s been a busy month for me since wedding season is now in full swing. So, now - catch up time with the blog!

We start off with the engagement session for Connie and Chris. What I enjoyed most about shooting their engagement was that we got along really well. I always emphasize to my couples that when choosing a photographer, you should not only examine their photos, but also figure out whether there is chemistry between you and the photographer.

Anyways….some images from their session:

I have a lot of respect for teachers - so when Pam and Brian asked me to be their wedding photographer, I was more than honored. Both are teachers, and in fact, Brian is a high-school photography teacher! (We didn’t have a photography class in my high school!)

We started the day in San Francisco and then ended up in Union City by the evening. What a day!

Here are some photo excerpts!

Things have been busy around here, so I haven’t had time to blog much. (hint: I’m moving to a new office/studio soon!)

Anyways, Margaret and Jason’s wedding from a couple of weeks ago led us on a whirlwind tour of San Francisco!

We started at the grand Fairmont Hotel on top of Nob Hill where the bridal party got ready. After that was a morning ceremony at the historical St. Peter and Paul in North Beach, followed by a fun (and wet!) frollicking at Baker Beach. We then headed over to the tourist-filled Union Square, and finally ended at Yank Sing / Rincon Center for the reception. Whew….what a day!

Here are some highlights from the wedding!
