The Dana Powers Barn in Nipomo along with its rustic charm and natural beauty was the perfect fit for Greg and Brooke’s “Vintage” themed wedding. The ceremony was held in the midst of citrus groves framed with amber colored hills as the backdrop. The reception took place in the barn that was lovingly decorated by a host of family and friends. Greg and Brooke both ooze with sweetness and a vibrant love for one another, a treat to photograph. Enjoy!

Tucked away in the hills above Morro Bay is the majestic Wixom Ranch. Shooting weddings at secluded and private ranch settings on the Central Coast are always one of my joys. Besides the spectacular location Morgan and Jason were oozing with sweetness and hearts full of love for one another. Always delightful to work with the following CCWP wedding vendors: Kim Brown, Kim & Co., Bob from AMS. Enjoy!

As I wind down finalizing album designs and complete shipping for my 2009 couples I thought it would be fun to share an album that I just completed for Patrick and Dana’s wedding that I did in Napa this past summer. I do all my own layout designs, keeping them simple and clean. No funky backgrounds, drop shadows and clutter. Couples pick out 50 of their “must-haves” I then add several of my own selects that complete the “story” of the day. After printing I ship to New York for mounting and binding at Renaissance. All albums are full grain leather with an elegant and rich expresso color. Yum, Yum. Here is their album.

The Cliffs Resort in Shell Beach was the setting for a day drenched in sunshine and a whole lot of love, passion and joy. I am always blessed to photograph couples that honor their families, heritage and cultural traditions. Galeet and Alon have an amazing array of family and friends who have a deep love for life, love, celebration, and dancing. As always it was a delight to with work alongside Corrine Samu Smith of Panacea Floral Design, Curtis Nemetz, videographer and Anna Fergus, coordintator at the Cliffs. Many blessings to a precious couple.

Dana and Patrick celebrated their wedding at the Rutherford Grove Winery nestled in the foothills of the Napa Valley. An amazingly cute and sweet couple, Dana and Patrick were graced with a beautiful day in every respect. You can view their Engagement photos here. Thanks for a memorable day you two.

Photographing couples such as Melissa and Chris reaffirm to me why I love to shoot weddings so much. After shooting their Engagement Session I knew right off what a fun-loving and relaxed couple they are and would be for their wedding. Thanks for a wonderful day you two. Enjoy.

Another magical wedding in the kingdom of luminous landscapes and enchanted light. It’s always a delightful experience shooting at one of my favorite San Luis Obispo venues, the Holland Ranch. Dominique and Mike were a wonderful couple, full of life and much love. Laurel White and crew from Adornments did a beautiful job with the florals. Enjoy.
