San Francisco Engagement | Mai + Ricky | Ferry Building

blog_mai_ric_01

Mai and Ricky are funny. Funny as in "your momma is so....." funny. Ricky made my job easy, and brought out some great expressions by making Mai laugh at his jokes. I wish I could have him come along to all my shoots. It was great hanging out with you guys, and I'm looking forward to your wedding in December.

Laguna Beach Wedding | Heather and Ektor

hea_ekt_01

I joined my good friend Mieng this past weekend in Southern California for this lovely, intimate, and relaxed wedding. Surrounded by close family and friends, it truly was a beautiful affair put on by Heather and Ektor. They held the ceremony right above Laguna Beach, and had their reception at Christaki's. Here are a few of my favorite details and portraits from the day.

Heather put her bouquet together herself. She did a fantastic job.

Michelle & Andrew | Married | San Francisco Conservatory of Flowers | Ana Mandara

blog_mich_andr_0001

I had the pleasure of witnessing one of the sweetest exchange of wedding vows this past weekend. Even though Michelle prepared hers a few days before, and Andrew prepared his 5 months before, both were so touching. Thank you both for allowing me to be a part of your special day.

I love the moment when they see each other for the first time before the ceremony.
