Jessica & Tim are MARRIED!

This was a wonderful Jewish wedding. I always feel right at home at these weddings because they were the kind of wedding I grew up with. It started off at the hotel - then there was the revealing. Then the kutuba signing which was so sweet and intimate. The ceremony was outdoors and the Huppa was something to talk about! My favorite part of the Jewish weddings is right after the bride and groom are announced - they invite everyone to come to the center of the dance floor and there is wondering dancing, hands are up in the air and THEN the bride and groom are thrown up in chairs! It is called the HORA!

Heather & Scott's Wedding in Carmel

This is from the day before - we had a great time.






Heather is such a stunning bride. We took this shot as it started to get a little darker.









The dress shot.


The girls ( I like to take lots of bridal photos - females love choices. )


There he is! It's not ALL about her - but most :)!

On Friday morning Michelle, Liina and I drove up to Carmel. We stayed at the house with the bridal party at Holly Farms. It was so nice. It looked like we were in Mexico. It felt like it too. There is much more to come from this wedding. Tomorrow is Jessica & Tim's wedding in Palo Alto - stay tuned.

Mark & Gina are MARRIED!

When Gina reminded me when her venue was a few weeks ago I was VERY exited. It was at the Ralston machine. I LOVE this place. I love everything about it. We took photos in a few different rooms and in front of the bamboo. I think it is so romantic for a wedding. I love the sweetness between Gina and Mark. Isn't she a knockout! There is more to come from this wedding. I am off to Carmel for Heather & Scotts wedding. I have been looking forward to this one! Happy July 4th everybody!

Comments welcome!

Question: Do you like the very wide angle - or the soft depth of field?

Raychel & Joel - Feedback wanted!

Hey blog readers - I want some feedback! Do you like this one? Or the one below?











The first shot was a goofy one!! With this couple there were no bad angles!!




















He is a foot taller than her. She makes him seem so tall!


I can tell this is going to be one fun wedding.





I love this one.
















I LOVE this couple. They are FUN! The evening flew by. We started off at AT&T park - they are Giant fans! They were a bit nervous at first - but then they loosened up. Then we were off to union square - where he purposed. After that they wanted something more scenic. I wanted to get them away from the crowds - so we went to one of my secret places! I found out that they have been together since they were 17! They have big families and are very close to them. I had a great time with you guys - see you soon.

Please leave comments - which are you fav photos - do you like the saturated ones? Which one works for you the most?

Thanks so much!
