I get to witness some very special moments, thanks to my photography. This was a private wedding ceremony, held in a local park on a quiet morning. There was such joy in this ceremony and the journey of these two together. Afterwards, we spent some time wandering and exploring the park, letting these two enjoy their first few moments as Mr. and Mrs.

What a wedding! Anastasia and Ben chose San Francisco for their destination wedding (traveling all the way from Australia), telling me they had always wanted to visit this area. That is such a special way to see a city and celebrate such an important event at the same time. They chose San Francisco City Hall for their ceremony, which is an absolutely beautiful building, with a reception at the Marines Memorial Club. Everyone involved was so excited to celebrate the bride and groom on their wedding day and it was a pleasure to spend a day among such sweet people.

Wedding Day: Justina & Jamie (Castro Valley, CA)

It is always an honor to photograph a wedding day and even more so when it is my very own friends and family. For me, it’s also more personal (and probably more emotional) since I know more about the couple’s story and have seen them grow closer to one another. Meet Justina, one of my best friends from high school and her husband, Jamie. I was asked to spend the morning with the girls while they got ready and also photograph some traditional Chinese wedding ceremonies. Continue on for some beautiful and funny moments.

Since it was such a perfect dress for Justina, I had to take the time to photograph it.

This is the first time I had heard of this tradition and witnessed it and it was so much fun! I couldn’t help but laugh as the guys did their best to win their way into the house. There were questions to answer, dancing to do, songs to sing, blind tasting and identification of food and lots of negotiating.

(Everyone in this car was a major trooper too, because it required running out in the pouring rain!)

While working on the images, I was really struck by how much honor and importance is represented in this ceremony, but by how well it was balanced with such love, sweet moments and laughter. It really acknowledges the role elder family members have played, while also being a celebration of a new family forming through the bride and groom. Castro Valley Wedding PhotographerCastro Valley Wedding PhotographerCastro Valley Wedding PhotographerCastro Valley Wedding PhotographerCastro Valley Wedding PhotographerCastro Valley Wedding PhotographerCastro Valley Wedding PhotographerCastro Valley Wedding PhotographerCastro Valley Wedding PhotographerCastro Valley Wedding PhotographerCastro Valley Wedding PhotographerCastro Valley Wedding PhotographerCastro Valley Wedding PhotographerCastro Valley Wedding PhotographerAnd, since we had a smaller group for the morning events, I asked if we could do a quick shot with everyone – turns out they have a fun crew!Castro Valley Wedding PhotographerI am so excited for this couple and the happiness they have found in one another.

As I was getting these wedding photos ready, I found myself wishing that I could go back and enjoy their day again. Emily and Joe are two of the sweetest people, full of laughter and so easy to be around. I had the pleasure of meeting these two when they first started dating (through my husband), so it was such an honor to capture and celebrate their wedding day alongside them. Congratulations again!

Everything about this wedding was unique and interesting, which makes for an awesome set of final photos. I was honored to be invited to capture such an intimate wedding in such a breathtaking location. The rain held off for most of the wedding day, but the ceremony location was blanketed in fog, giving a surreal feeling to a lot of the photos. Beautiful and unforgettable!

I enjoy how unique each wedding is, especially when a couple puts so much of their personality into their special day. Katie and Jake’s engagement photos were full of locations that told their story and their wedding day contained so many touches that were special to them. They had a sunny day for their October wedding in Livemore, California and I got to second-shoot for my friend (and talented photographer) Renee from Renascent Photography.

After a fun engagement session, I was looking forward to spending a full day with Paige and Richard, capturing their wedding day. Of course it was an awesome time! From spending time with the girls getting ready, all the way to the s’mores before the night was over, it was a great day. Their venue was absolutely beautiful, and so great because it was, literally, right in the family’s back yard. There were tons of little touches that I couldn’t help but appreciate as I caught them throughout the day – all the personalized bits and the handmade items made me smile and showed how much care was put into this wedding day.

Congratulations to you both!

The first month of the year – where everything seems fresh and exciting! January was busy for me, tidying up business stuff after 2015 and trying to work ahead on some projects. As always, an interesting variety of projects and personal moments posted throughout the month to my Instagram account.

With the busy holiday season, I spent a lot of time working on stock to sell in person at craft fairs. Towards the end of the month, other work took over, then I enjoyed the holidays. Here are a few pictures from throughout the month.
