While at WPPI convention last week in Las Vegas we had the opportunity to do a little night shooting with Alicia at Shoot with Beckstead. An accomplished photographer herself, Alicia decided to try the other side of the lens. We think she has a gift for that side of the lens as well.
What a joy to work with Jami as she and her husband are preparing for their first child! She was gracious, fun and beautiful, and we are honored to have captured these images for her during such a special time. Can’t wait to see little Kash make his appearance!
With great anticipation for an 11/11/11 wedding, Briana & Randy were really looking forward to an outdoor ceremony at Copper River Country Club. That morning, however, brought clouds, a brisk temperature, and an occasional rain shower. While many considered prepping the reception area for a ceremony, that list did NOT include the bride & groom. Rain or shine they were getting hitched in the great outdoors! You can see from the images they never let the environment spoil their special day….big smiles everywhere.
What happens when two pediatricians working in Philadelphia come back to Fresno for their wedding? First, a class A reunion of friends and family; then a ceremony and party like no other. Fort Washington was beautifully decorated and the appetizer spread was unbelievable. Then there were several types of live entertainment, but not before two of the nicest people exchanged their vows in a mixed traditional/Persian wedding. Amy and I thoroughly enjoyed the whole day with Shab & William…all the way to the limo at 1:30am!
So, after having a great time with Georgia and Jason in San Francisco on their engagement shoot it was time to tie the knot. The venue was a private residence in Old Fig and the event came off without a hitch (other than they got hitched!) due in large part to the efforts of Sheri Netto from Star Events. The evening ended with a surprise dance performance by the bride and her bridesmaids for the benefit of her groom who had a ring side seat!
So, after a fantastic engagement session with Jordan & Rick in Carmel, here we are at their Fig Garden Swim & Racquet wedding. A beautiful fall day ceremony with the party extending late into the evening. Congrats Jordan & Rick!
The air was crisp, the sky blue. And Bass Lake was a spectacular setting for Heather & Maksim’s engagement shoot. We have been fortunate this year to have so many couples truly enjoy themselves in front of the camera….and these two were no exception!
Here we are 4 weeks from their 11/11/11 wedding at Copper River. We had a great time with Briana & Randy (and Grace the dog) bouncing around the Fresno area before coming to rest at Wasabi in Fig Garden. One of our most fun shoots….can’t wait for next month.
It has been a few years since I had the opportunity to photograph Deventrya for a layout in Valley Bridal Magazine. So, just before she heads back to Los Angeles she calls looking for a portfolio update. Always a classy lady with a classy look.
We had a fun afternoon with Cara & Karson, traveling from the great outdoors to the Tower district, the place they call home. You can tell from the images these two are meant for each other. Their big day happens next month at The Grand….can’t wait!
