Linh + Bao | Pleasanton Marriott | Stanford | Asian Pearl

Linh and Bao have the power to stop rain. Really, they do. First on their engagement session, out of 7 days of continuous rain, they chanced it and got lucky with no rain during the shoot. Now fast forward to their wedding day, rain was forecasted all day long, but we lucked out again on the outdoor photo session. I think it's time to buy some lottery tickets guys. Thanks for making my last wedding of 2010 an awesome one. It was a blast, and I am honored to be a part of it.

Ronda + Andre | Pleasanton | 10/10/10

I first met Ronda and Andre in 2008, and I knew at that time, they were a very special couple. They had a beautiful intimate wedding at a private residence in Pleasanton, and I felt so honored to be a part of it.

I absolutely adore the bouquet Ronda put together. As I found out during their engagement session, they are very into the 'green' lifestyle and incorporated the theme throughout their wedding. This particular bouquet had artichoke in it. How unique!

As always, I love the 'first looks'.

Such an adorable flower girl.

Even their dog Satchmo had a role in the wedding day. I love his custom tailored tux and hat.

Their friends sang "Love me tender" during the ceremony.

All the food was vegan, and took me by surprise, as it was really delicious. I think it may be time for me to make a diet change ; )

Even the cake was vegan!

In honor of her dad's passing, his best friend flew in from out of state to fill in for the father/daughter dance, such a touching moment.

It was 'really' hot that day, and the ring bearer/flower girl hopped in the pool after the wedding ended.

We headed over to Alviso Adobe Community Park before sunset for a few more portraits.

Thanks Ronda and Andre for allowing me to capture your wedding day!
