Melissa & Casey’s elegant and beautiful Clos La Chance winery wedding was featured on 7 x 7 today! Click here to see the full post.

I Do Venues is a great resource for couples trying to find their ideal wedding venue. They feature all of the Bay Area’s very best venues and they just did another post today featuring Marilyn & Jason’s bright and beautiful Clos La Chance wedding. See the full post here, or my blog post about the wedding here.

I’m so excited for my first feature on one of my favorite wedding blogs, Ruffled today  thanks to the amazing vision of Shannon & Richard and all of the vendors who made their wedding such a beautiful one. You can see the full post and vendor credit list here.

I just came home to an email notifying me that Courtney & Dan’s wedding had just been featured on Style Unveiled, so of course I was beyond thrilled and quickly went to check the post only to discover that Courtney & Dan had said the sweetest things about their experience with me as their photographer. I can’t thank them enough for their kind words and I have to respond by raving about them in return, as they are the most gracious, fun-loving and down-to-earth couple a wedding photographer could ever ask for. I hope to know them both throughout their long and happy marriage, and I’m already excited about the good looking kids they’ll be making together! To see the full feature click here.

What a treat to see one of my favorite engagement sessions featured on Engaged & Inspired today! To see the full post click here, or to see my post about this beautiful engagement session check here.

I had no idea this was going to happen, so when I first saw this beautiful Style Me Pretty Magazine and discovered that Jessica and Tim’s wedding was included as one of Style Me Pretty’s top weddings of 2011 my first response was that I did’t feel worthy of being among this calibre of photographers. Then I realized that it wasn’t about my photographs, it was about the inspiring aesthetic of this bride and groom, and it was especially about the experience and talent of all of the vendors including Bliss Event Productions, Mimi & Taylor Salon, Brown Sugar Designs and Flowerwild (among so many others) without whom there would be no pretty pictures. Then I felt overwhelming gratitude for getting to work with such amazing people and for getting to document love and days like this that are so full of joy and beauty…my heart could not be any fuller.

I could not be more excited about Robyn and Tobin’s amazing Holman Ranch wedding feature in the newest issue of The Knot magazine. We had a dream team of vendors who all helped to bring this day to life, including event design and planning by Coastside Couture, flowers by Laughin’ Gal Floral, cakes by Edith Meyer, catering by Grapes of Wrath and videography by Bigtime Video Services. The Knot magazines are always full of beautiful ideas and inspiration, so if you’re newly engaged, check them out for sure.

I’ve always loved 7 x 7 magazine, so I was beyond excited to hear that they wanted to feature Jessica & Tim’s Cornerstone wedding in their annual weddings issue. You can see Jessica and Tim’s full wedding here.

Just realized that I never posted this one…still one of my favorite engagement sessions ever!

So honored to be a very small part of the newest issue of Southern Weddings Magazine! If you’re planning a wedding, this publication is full of beautiful inspiration. To see all of the images from the shoot featured check here.
