Have you seen the movie ‘Gattaca’? Michelle & Holden definitely have, and as self-professed sci-fi nerds they decided there was no other place they could possibly get married than the setting of some of the film’s iconic scenes – the Frank Lloyd Wright-designed Marin County Civic Center. If you haven’t toured this masterpiece of modernist […]

“We never dreamed in a million years there would be marriage equality in our lifetimes.” Cindy wrote this to me when we first booked her and Lydia’s wedding date, and it made such an impression on me. Marriage equality is still so new in our society, still so shocking that it was finally achieved. One […]

I can’t even describe how much fun I had photographing Dani & Dan’s wedding at V. Sattui Winery last week! These two are cute in a way that is immediately infectious, and the way they are with each other is even better. We spent the evening of their wedding exploring the winery, taking pics, and […]

Valerie & Jose’s wedding at Blue Victorian Winery was every bit as heart-felt and genuine as I knew it would be after meeting these two in person a few months ago. Sometimes you just know immediately that a couple is perfect together and that their wedding is going to be a truly emotional affair. It […]

From first meeting Kim & Chris, I knew instantly that I was going to enjoy their wedding day. These are truly two of the most easy-going people I’ve met, and no matter the excitement of their day, they stayed centered, genuine, and happy. It was a bright, gorgeous, colorful day at The Vintage Estate in […]
