Oh my gosh, where to begin?! I’ve been looking forward to this day ever since Michelle first inquired. These two are absolute perfection and have thee most rom-com love story of all time! This is their story in Michelle’s words:
"A little over a year ago I was t-boned by a big construction truck on the way to work. My car was totaled, but I was okay. My paramedic, Alan, was incredibly cute and friendly & made the whole situation a million times better. I later found out that he wanted to get my number but was worried it would be unethical. A month later, my roommate convinced my to sign up for Bumble, where lo and behold, I found my cute paramedic. He proposed almost exactly a year later."
Sounds like the plot of a Hallmark movie right?
Read MoreWhen Cassy and Richard first reached out about their Mendocino wedding I was STOKED. I had only been to this part of northern California once before and I couldn't wait to get back to the gorgeous Highway 1 views.
We started the day at the MacCallum House where they were both getting ready. Cassy looked drop dead gorgeous in her Made With Love dress and all her girls lost it when they saw her done up and ready. We then drove to a beautiful bluff overlooking the turquoise blue water where Richard and Cassy had their first look. The ceremony took place on the cliffside underneath this stunning natural tree arch. We then headed back to MacCallum house for some dinner and dancing to cap off this perfect day! Oh, also please note their puppy, Ollie, looking incredibly dapper in his bowtie.
Read MoreAlex & Ben tied the knot at the beautiful Julia Morgan Ballroom right in the heart of San Francisco. It’s not often that I get to shoot a wedding strictly in the city and I loved getting creative in the concrete jungle. The Porush wedding was a classy affair; with the bridesmaids wearing all black, the men in tuxes, and the ballroom decked out in incredible florals by The Bloom Bar Co.
After their first look in the Omni Hotel lobby, we took to the streets to get some killer bridal party shots. The day was filled with many fun traditional Jewish wedding events like the Tish, followed by the signing of the Ketubah. The ceremony took place in the grand lobby before we moved upstairs for the festivities. The night was filled with many great toasts, an epic Hora dance and a live band that rocked the party all night.
Read MoreFinishing weddings is always bittersweet for me; I can’t wait to deliver their beautiful photos but it also means our time has come to an end. I first met Pritika & Drew over coffee last summer, and after learning that our visions for photography clicked, we went ahead and shot their engagement photos and secured their date for May 2019.
Pritika was the most stunning bride and was literally glowing all day. Drew was looking dapper and had somehow grown even taller since we did their engagement photos. Their friends and family showered them with so much love and the whole day was magical.
Read MoreSamah and Ahmed met in Japan and they say it was truly love at first sight. Both Samah and Ahmed attended grad school at UCLA, and were literally in the same building, but their paths never crossed until they were thousands of miles away. How crazy is that?!
They had their ceremony down in LA and then opted to host an intimate dinner celebration at Berkeley City Club. It’s no secret that this is one of my absolute favorite venues. Not only is BCC rich in history and designed by California’s first licensed female architect (Julia Morgan) but every inch is stunning.
Read MoreYayyy to Mr & Mrs Defazio!! Lexie & Brandon booked me for their wedding at the beginning of 2017 so it’s safe to say this day was pretty HIGHLY anticipated.
Lexie's day started how most wedding days (or any) should start: mimosas with the girls while getting their glam on. The boys gathered at Brandons family house for BBQ, beers, and boy things.
