SO CAL SWEETHEARTS

Albert & I spent Sunday in SF with the cutest couple ever. Really! Rachel is a gorgeous, tall, blonde lawyer who represents big, serious, corporate clients - but don’t be fooled - she is as girl-next-door as it gets! So sweet and down to earth. She’s a three (or was it four?) time marathon runner; went to UCLA; then Law school in SF; & she’s a big time music junkie….her “Deserted island must-have” list includes an “everlasting and automatically updating ipod.” Love her! Kevin is a super hilarious ultra jock. He was a competitive swimmer in college at Michigan, and is a frequent surfer these days from their new home in Costa Mesa, where he works as a financial advisor. This Southern CA native has quite a thing for PB-honey-banana sandwiches! A guy after my own heart! These two actually met in high school, and their paths criss-crossed the country for about a decade before they were finally both in the same state at the same time again, and gave it a real go. Thank goodness they did cause they were meant for each other! The only thing that wasn’t absolutely perfect about this day was the darn SF “summer” weather, but these two were such troopers. We played all day despite the fog & chilly temps. We are literally counting the days ’til their wedding Sept. 1 2008 at Chambers Landing on Tahoe’s West Shore. Anything these two collaborate on is bound to be laughter-and-fun-filled and truly special! Thanks for a great day guys - can’t wait to see you in a few weeks.

PS, if your feeling patient, after a long download, heres the slideshow.

Jocelyn + Craig, Lake Tahoe, CA

The incredible Mulberry Associate team did it again. They shot a really special wedding at River Ranch, on the sparkling, splashing Truckee River. What a magical location! Craig and Jocelyn absolutely radiated with love for each other! The love and support of their families and friends was very evident as well. An impacting part of the ceremony was when they remembered family members that were no longer with them, by casting flowers into the river. It’s so great when brides & grooms do things that resonate with them, and make their day truly unique. And those Flower Girls, sooo cute! They really knew how to ham it up in front of the cameras!  It was such a pleasure to be able to capture precious moments in time for this darling couple.  They were so full of life and we wish them all the best! Here’s a little preview of your beautiful wedding. ENJOY!

Sara + Blair Engagement

Sara and Blair, such fun-lovin, out-going, spirited people. We loved shooting their engagement session. It was maybe 40 degrees, maybe. But we had a blast! We could have spent all day with them, had the weather gods cooperated a bit more. We are so excited to shoot their wedding at Heavenly Valley this August. Here’s a peek at their engagement session… Congrats again Sara and Blair! ENJOY.

Samantha + Allen, Donner Lake, CA

Sam and Allen are a great couple. Thats the simple story. But they are such real and interesting people. Both “jetsetters”, literally! They both hit the skies for Alaska Airlines. They love travel, people, and being real. I wish they lived closer, but with wings on theirs backs, maybe we will be able to connect more beyond their wedding in August. I sure hope so!
