Linda + Brad | Nestledown Wedding | Los Gatos Wedding Photography

Here are some of my favorite images from Linda and Brad’s gorgeous celebration at Nestledown. What a magically beautiful setting to be married! There are so many whimsical and charming elements to this property all nestled in the grove of magnificent redwoods. The event design and coordination was by Isabella of Florabella Weddings. She did an exquisite job creating some of the most beautiful colorful details I’ve seen. We loved being there and capturing all the beauty. Cheers to you both on your new adventure through life together!

Gar-Ye + Coleman | Piedmont Community Hall | SF Bay Area Wedding Photography

We so enjoyed photographing Gar-Ye and Coleman’s beautiful wedding celebration in the Piedmont hills of Oakland. The enchanting redwood grove amphitheater was such a dramatic spot for the ceremony. And Gar’s hand made decorations were so creative from her butterfly place cards and paper flower bouquets to the adorable tea pot flower arrangements. Gar has such a charming creative flare and a personality to match! Congrats to you both; it’s great to see the coming together of different cultural backgrounds to make such a unique and wonderful new family.

Chau + Anup | 1 Fort Mason, San Francisco | SF Bay Area Wedding Photography

There are so many pictures I love of Anup and Chau’s beautiful wedding that it’s been hard to pick just a few for the blog. Their wedding was incredible to photograph; two wonderful ceremonies, two gorgeous bridal dresses and of course two of the sweetest people. It was a complete pleasure to capture it all including the hearty and vigorous reception dancing. It was hard to keep myself from joining in! Thank you both so much for letting us capture your unforgettably joyous occasion. We wish you so much happiness.

Green Gala | Berkeley Botanical Gardens


The University of California Botanical Garden at Berkeley had their Garden Party Fundraiser the Green Gala on June 28th. The fundraiser highlighted the truly amazing relationship between plants and people by featuring a fashion show of eco-conscious local designers. I loved photographing the beautiful models and all the wonderfully creative designs. It was truly exciting to capture the magic of these talented designers especially in the setting of one of my favorite spots; the spectacular redwood grove amphitheater. Here are some of my favorite pics from the show. (click on the picture if you’d like to view it larger;-)
