A Palm Springs garden wedding // Emily and Robert

A Palm Springs garden wedding // Emily and Robert

As Jaime and I descended into the Coachella Valley for Emily and Robert’s Palm Springs Garden wedding, and the mercury passed the 100 degree mark, we knew this would be a special weekend and we looked forward to the intimate affair. There’s no bigger honor than being asked to photograph the wedding of one of… + Read More

A Blackberry Farm Wedding // Claire and Chris

A Blackberry Farm Wedding // Claire and Chris

As we made our way to Claire and Chris’ Blackberry Farm wedding in Tennessee, a pastoral 4,200-acre estate nestled at the foothills of the Great Smoky Mountains where Claire Coffee and Chris Thile were going to be married. We first met Claire in the summer of 2008 at the wedding of her childhood friend Julia Hart-Horowitz and she’s the main subject… + Read More

A Franciscan Gardens wedding // Claire and Kyle

A Franciscan Gardens wedding // Claire and Kyle

I am serious, at Claire and Kyle’s Franciscan Gardens wedding in San Juan Capistrano, my eyes didn’t dry the whole time, and I knew it before we even started their photography. I’m not one of those serial facebook friend collectors. I try to keep my little icon friends to minimum and include only those that… + Read More

A Gualala Art Center Wedding // Adriana and Ro

A Gualala Art Center Wedding // Adriana and Ro

It would’ve been around the time that Ro – reciting his vows on the bluff overlooking Gualala – professed to Adrianna “There is no I without you” that my vision got blurry.  I’m quite used to looking over and seeing Jaime all red-faced and damp cheeked during these emotional parts of the day, but me?… + Read More

A Terra Gallery wedding // Michele and Tim

A Terra Gallery wedding // Michele and Tim

Michele and Tim are both native San Diegains transplanted to San Francisco. They met at a Giants vs Padres game through mutual friends. That game was the start of their genuine, loyal and silly relationship, and to this day, neither of them actually remember who won as they talked the whole entire game! The past… + Read More

A San Diego botanical gardens wedding // Erica and Greg

We first met Erica and Greg at a get-together amongst friends at one of our favorite haunts, Besta-Wan in the lovely Cardiff-By-The-Sea.  It was clear from the start that these were two great people and we hoped that we would become friends…and we did! Here is a very sweet, behind-the-scenes peek into the people behind the images… + Read More

A Big Sur Bakery wedding // Jeanne and Nick

A Big Sur Bakery wedding // Jeanne and Nick

This Big Sur bakery wedding was held on π Day! No, Jeanne and Nick are not mathematicians, nor engineers for NASA;  they chose 3.14 for their wedding date simply because the number fascinates them.  This decision, along with choosing to have a Pfeiffer Beach ceremony, reflects their love of science and nature, their independent spirit, and their light-hearted… + Read More

An Anvil Vineyard wedding // Isabel and Joseph

An Anvil Vineyard wedding // Isabel and Joseph

Isabel and Joseph had an Anvil Vineyard wedding deep in the hills of Sonoma county at a place with deep historical significance for Joseph’s family.  Even before Joseph was born, his family would visit Anvil Ranch to escape the hectic pace of city life and reconnect with nature for family getaways.  After Joseph was born the tradition continued,… + Read More

A Bel Air Bay Club wedding // Michelle and Jonathan

A Bel Air Bay Club wedding // Michelle and Jonathan

“If you live to be a hundred, I want to live to be a hundred minus one day so I never have to live without you.” ― A.A. Milne, Winnie-the-Pooh  Once those words left Michelle’s mouth, the entire place was one, big, sobby mess at their Bel Air Bay Club wedding. And, although I’ve omitted photo evidence… + Read More

A Virgin Gorda destination wedding // Dawn and Brian

A Virgin Gorda destination wedding // Dawn and Brian

 “Who’s wedding is it anyhow?”  I bet a lot of couples get to a point in their planning when this question arises, and it’s unlikely to come up when everyone’s happy.  It’s hard planning a Virgin Gorda destination wedding as this requires great diplomatic navigation of potentially rough waters. You  have your vision of the… + Read More
