January 12, 2011 Jon + JoAnn Married!

We are so thrilled to have been a part of Jon + JoAnn's wedding at Nestldown in the Santa Cruz Mountains, CA. Jon + JoAnn are some of the NICEST people on earth and we just love how JoAnn and her brother designed her wedding with a 1920's theme. They even had adorable little boys dressed up as paper boys delivering all the guests programs. My favorite though, were the succulent flowers in the brides hair and bouquet. It was so pretty and original! Special thanks to Details by Design Events for helping to make this all happen. Stay tuned for the video...

absolutely love this session - twister mat = amazing, sunlight = glorious - beautiful couple and as always the best photographers ever!

[August 29, 2010 12:51 AM] Mel said:

Aww. Such nice things were said. I'd like to take this moment to thank God, Whitney for her enthusiasm, Marcellos for accomplishing his other duties that day, Nick for asking me to marry him - cause only then can we have an engagement shoot, my parents for making me and loving Nick, the weather for being soo cold - cause you better look alive when your shivering, the city of Tiburon for existing and Urban Outfitters for impressing Whitney and occasionally clothing me. Yay! Six days of pre-wedding to go - a once in a lifetime experience.

December 30, 2009 Kelly

I've known Kelly since I was in 4th grade and we used to photograph each other all the time. About 2 years ago I took this pic and recently stumbled upon it again. It is by far the best picture I have taken of her. She's got amazing eyes and hair...how lucky am I to have such a stunning friend? :)

Carla is Marcellos' adorable younger sister who is even more adorable pregnant! Her delightful, easy attitude along with lots of giggles made this shoot effortless. It also didn't hurt that we got to shoot in San Diego's beautiful Seaport Village!
