Yountville Engagement Session | Olivia and Jeff

December 3, 2009 – 12:26 pm

This might have been the FASTEST engagement session on record thanks to mother nature! I was set to meet Olivia and Jeff in St Helena for their engagement session. As I drove north on 29 the clouds were pitch black and and I could tell it was raining up there. I quickly called them to see if they left their hotel in Yountville yet. Plans quickly changed and I met them in Yountville instead to try to salvage their engagement session. All of these photos were taken between 9:03 – 9:27.  By 9:20 it was pouring so we took cover at the French Laundry for a few more photos. I think they rocked it out despite the cold, wind and rain. THANK YOU both for bearing the elements with me!

Check back soon for their wedding photos.

You guys are just too cute. Thank you for hanging out and powering through the session with 3 hours of sleep and an overdose of bad Peet’s Coffee! See you at Auberge in October!

On their first date they went hiking. Subadra having just moved from NYC thought this hike was like a stroll through central park. Karl had another kind of hike in mind, but Subardra still didnt change out of her heels. I LOVE YOU FOR THIS! lol~sonomawinecountryengagementsession_004 sonomawinecountryengagementsession_003 sonomawinecountryengagementsession_002 sonomawinecountryengagementsession_001

Wente Vineyards Wedding Photography | Adam & Jenn

July 29, 2009 – 11:53 am

When I photographed Adam and Jennifer at their engagement session in Vegas earlier this year I could tell their wedding photos were going to be a breeze. They have a passion and love for each other that will stand the test of time and their love for one another only amplifies in photos. I love the smile that comes across Jen’s face when when she gets around Adam, the funny guy. During their vows Jen explained she wouldn’t want to live a day without Adam making her laugh. And laugh they did!

Their wedding at Wente Vineyards in Livermore last week was the combining of two great families into one. The day was set to be over 100 degrees, but right before the ceremony the wind picked up and you couldnt even feel the heat! Dinner and dancing happened well into the night…. oh my can you guys dance! As I was leaving (camera already packed up unfortunately!) Adam pulled out his Michael Jackson moves. Classic.

Here are some photos from their day. To see all of their photos click here.

No matter where Jen goes there her nose is always in a book. So this photo is for you Adam:

Since Adam is a chef they decided to incorporate his favorite herb to cook with as centerpieces. These also dubbed as favors for the guests to take home. Love this! Its the gift/favor that keeps on giving!

Images in Parking Lots

July 22, 2009 – 8:44 pm

Last week at Gina and Michaels wedding I took a few photos of them in a parking lot. This past Saturday at Adam and Jen’s wedding I ended up in a parking lot again! It dawned on me that I do this QUITE a lot! The first time I did this was a few years ago at Dhivya and Jays wedding. I’ve told this story to many couples before, but I think it warrants a post on the blog: The night before Dhivya and Jays wedding I received a call from Dhivya telling me our post ceremony photo session would be cut short. The location we were planning on going to would be out of the picture. She gave me the address of a park to scout out in the morning that they would meet us at. When I arrived it looked like labor day weekend + 100 degree weather with people everywhere!! I was in a panic. I wanted them to have the best photos EVER yet where was I supposed to take them at? I started driving around the area.

Side-note: For the east-coasters out there: This was in the San Jose-Milpitas area aka Silicon Valley… which is generally a lot of office buildings, and no greenery in sight.

I found an office building with some cool architecture and a few shrubs and gave them the address to meet me at. When we got back at Dhiyvas parents house for the reception I proudly told her mother “we shot your daughters wedding photos in a parking lot” She look terrified! In the end she loved the photos! (The photos arent loading for Dhivya and Jays wedding right now but Ill post asap)

Moral of the blog post? You never know where the perfect location might come from. Just go with the flow and see what we come up with. And if it doesnt come out perfect… well at least you had fun doing it right? ; )

Check back in a few days for more of Jen and Adam. They are so cute together its unreal!
