Happy Halloween! This post has nothing to do with Halloween, but it is a beautiful wedding that we are excited to share. So, enjoy!
Lucie and Brendan have an amazing story as you may remember when we posted their engagement shoot here. After going to high school together and maintaining a friendship that spanned years and the entire country, Lucie and Brendan fell in love. Well, the Oakland A's and a broken leg may have helped their love along.
The Vine Hill House was the perfect place for them to continue their story and get married. They had a gorgeous summer wedding - the vines were lush, the weather was warm and not too hot, their families and friends gave some of the most amazing toasts including surprising them with a kazoo performance - everything was perfect. Congratulations, Lucie and Brendan!

On their very first date at Pinkberry on Santana Row in San Jose, Frances and Joe had no way of knowing that Joe would eventually propose to Frances there, or that they would get married just a couple hundred feet away at the Hotel Valencia and have their wedding portraits taken on the very spot where Joe proposed under a tree in front of the same Pinkberry where they had their first date. Okay that was a long sentence, but I had a lot of serendipity to pack in. Especially because when we met they didn't have a venue, and it was only after going back to their spot that they settled on Hotel Valencia. So, given their history, I fully expect Frances to give birth to their first child under the oak tree in front of Pinkberry on Santana Row. I kid (pun intended), but isn't it crazy how things work out sometimes?
Prior to their wedding, we had spent a lot of time with Alisha and Alan - both during their engagement session in San Francisco and during our first consultation with them at a dive bar in Woodside. So, given their vivacious personalities, we knew this was going to be a fantastic wedding. Yet, even with our high expectations, we were blown away. During his toast, Alisha's dad said there are only two types of people in the world: Italians and people who wished they were Italian. I can't say that that is true, but I can say that these Italians sure know how to have a good time. Then again, I am a sucker for those moments when ALL of the wedding guests squeeze onto the dance floor, clutching one another and swaying as they serenade the couple with "That's Amore." Yep, that happened.
Good morning blog world! We had a really fun shooting weekend - a San Francisco engagement and gorgeous wedding in Carmel, and hope you all had a super Labor Day weekend too! To ease back into the work week, we're sharing Angela and Brett's "fairytale casual" wedding!
Last year, when Ephraim's little sister Anna excitedly faced the prospect of living in the same city (San Francisco) as her big brother, she asked if she could live with him. To her disappointment, he turned her down, saying that the next person he would live with was going to be his wife. So, last fall, when Ephraim told Anna that he and his then girlfriend Danielle were looking for a place together, she knew (before Danielle) that Ephraim and Danielle were going to get married. And just like that, less than a year later, Danielle and Ephraim were married.
