I had the absolute pleasure of photographing the Buckles Family -Patrick, Jessica and Patrick Jr. - this past weekend at Heather Farms in Walnut Creek.
I photographed Patrick and Jessica's wedding a few years back, and we have stayed in touch over the years. I love it when my clients stay in touch after their wedding. Especially when I am able to photograph them after they start families. I hope to photograph them for years to come.....
But for now, just a couple of my favorites...

This past weekend I met with Ramona and Mark at the Lafayette Reservoir to shoot their engagement photos. This is a very special place to them - Mark proposed to Ramona under "their" tree.
It was truly a beautiful day at the Reservoir. We had so much fun walking around and I really got to know Ramona and Mark as a couple. They have been together since High School and are each others best friend.

This past weekend I had the absolute pleasure of photographing the Netherton Family - Kelly, Tim and Brady. Kelly has been a bridesmaid in two recent weddings that I photographed, so when she contacted me about photographing 4 month old Brady, I couldn't hardly wait !!!
Brady is absolutely adorable. He is such a sweet boy and is so well behaved. I had such a great time photographing this family. We're hoping to schedule a session every few months over the next year, so stay tuned....

I had the absolute pleasure of shooting Vicki and Brian's wedding last weekend. They were married at St. Augustine's Catholic Church in Pleasanton and their reception was held at the beautiful Dublin Ranch Golf Course in Dublin.
One thing you need to know about this couple is that they don't take themselves seriously - AT ALL ! Candid was the word of the day, as they couldn't stop making faces and goofing off all day long. But if you get to know them, you realize that this is who they are, and you love them for it.
It is no exaggeration that I truly felt as if I was a guest at their wedding, rather than a paid professional. I can't count the amount of times that I was pulled on the dance floor to dance with Vicki & Brian. At one point, Brian told me to put down the camera and just have fun with them. Being the complete professional I am, I politely declined...however, when they look at their video, they will see me on the very edge of the dance floor "shakin' what the Lord gave me".
Vicki and Brian, thank you so much for allowing me the privilege of capturing your wedding day. You reminded me again why I absolutely LOVE what I do and that I would not trade my "job" for anything in the world.
I hope you enjoy your two weeks in Hawaii and I can't wait for your "Trash the Dress" session when you get back.
Much love and appreciation....
