Michele + Devin in Livermore, CA

Michele and Devin's story begins with a simple disagreement between Devin's best friend Brian and Michele's little sister Tania.  Because she was one of Brian's students, Tania had to listen to him talk everyday about how his friend, Devin, was the best person ever.  But Tania knew from experience that her sister, Michele, was the best person ever.  Seeing that it was their duty to settle the argument, Brian and Tania set up Michele and Devin on a date.  And since we had the honor to photograph Michele and Devin's wedding, I guess they've now earned the title of "best couple ever."

These two were married in September in Livermore and then partied the night away in San Ramon.  Normally, the best weather in the Bay Area is during September, it's the height of our summer.  But on their day, it poured.  Michele and Devin handled the rain like champs, and by the ceremony's end, the sun was out and shining.  We loved photographing Michele and Devin not only because they were super sweet and easy to be around, but they also included their pup Moose for a number of photos.  Congratulations you two!

Alyssa + Drew Engagement

I am always looking forward to my next adventure, but in the middle of wedding season it can be hard to find the time for Adm and I to run off and have one.  Instead, we have turned our engagement sessions into mini adventures.  Alyssa and Drew were up for a tour of the North Bay and a little bit of trespassing in the Marin Headlands to get some photos of them in a giant horse barn.  We had so much fun with them and can't wait until their wedding next summer.  Plus, Alyssa's smile is completely contagious so how could we not have a blast with these two?
