Kristen + Chad::Classic SF Engagement Session with Michael
We’re on a roll with the San Francisco theme (did you check out the precious family mini-sessions we just posted?!) so thought we’d keep it up and bring you Kristen and Chad’s gorgeous engagement session, shot by our amazing SF photographer, Michael. These photos are SO gorgeous with some really epics landscapes…just scroll down – you’ll see what we mean! Kristen and Chad met through similar interests – they are both into cars and photography, and always hung out in group settings. We are always so honored when couples who are really into photography ask us to participate in their wedding day – we know they’ve done their research! After finally hanging out one-on-one, the rest is history, and 3 1/2 years later these two were engaged. We’re so excited to be a part of their wedding this upcoming June in Santa Clara! We’ll leave you with these sweet words that Kristen wrote about their relationship: “We enjoy pushing each other to be the best that we can be as a person and TRY and stay positive through life. We give each other the support and understanding to be ourselves and to always remember that we will always be here for one another.” We love you Kristen and Chad, and are so excited to be working with you! xoxo

Leigh + Ryan:Wedding Sneak Peek:Nashville Wedding with Tracy
Today we are bringing you the sneak peek of Leigh and Ryan’s beee-eee-aaa-utiful wedding, and this is one that you don’t want to miss. As you guys know, we have a Nashville market, but when our Nashville photographer wasn’t available on Leigh + Ryan’s wedding date, we sent our always stellar San Diego photographer, Tracy, over to Nashville. Just a little perk of the way we work…..
Leigh and Ryan got married at the gorgeous Christ the King Church, and had a really beautiful rustic reception at a very cool venue – Building 8 at the Factory. (we are totally loving the rustic hanging doors and windows!) Leigh and Ryan met at on outdoor concert in Nashville, and after connecting on Facebook (gotta love Facebook!) they scheduled a date – and the rest is history! These two lovebirds say they knew within just a a couple of months, they were meant to be, and we are so honored and blessed to have been there to capture their wedding day!
Seriously, though, you absolutely cannot miss some of these portraits – Tracy knocked it out of the park!!!! Hope you love this sneak peek, Leigh and Ryan, and can’t wait to show you all of your photos! xoxo
Ceremony Venue: Christ the King; Reception Venue: Building 8 at the Factory; Wedding Planner: Decadent Details; Floral Design: Enchanted Florist; Cake: The Cupcake Collection; Entertainment: Brian Snyder Entertainment; Catering: B&C Catering; Dress: Alvina Valenta; Hair: Cognito;
Read MoreJoni + Ricardo:Wedding Sneak Peek: Palo Alto, California
Today we are bringing you the sneak peek of Joni and Ricardo’s super sweet wedding day, brought to you by our always fabulous Michael! Joni and Ricardo knew they wanted a low-key, no fuss event that incorporated both Joni’s culture as well as Ricardo’s Indonesian background. These two married at Joni’s home church, where she was baptized and where she currently serves as an elder. Also, because Ricardo is also of Chinese descent, Joni and Ricardo held their reception at Ming’s, where they hosted a traditional Chinese 10 course dinner. Like many of our clients, Joni and Ricardo met on Match.com (it works people!) five years ago. After two years of amazing dates and tons of travel, these two got engaged almost 3 years ago, and finally tied the knot just a few short weeks ago. We absolutely love the sweet words that Joni has used when she has described their relationship to us – she says they make a great team in everything from travel to stuff around the house, and as Joni says, “Basically we both feel we were lucky to have found the other, we’re stronger together than apart, and it just feels like it was meant to be.” Love. We hope you guys enjoy your absolutely beautiful sneak peeks, and we can wait for you to see all of your photos!
Max + Michaela:Sneak Peek w/ Michael:Rustic Wedding at River Highlands Ranch
Seriously guys. We are SWOONING over all of the beautiful wedding sneak peeks that we’re bringing you this week. Our clients and our photographers always amaze us, but all of you have taken it to a whole new level this week. Today we’re bringing you the sneak peek of Max and Michaela’s absolutely incredible wedding day, shot by our always-impeccable California photographer, Michael. M+M tied the knot at a super cool venue – the River Highlands Ranch. Their wedding day was the perfect touch of rustic with the right amount of whimsy thrown in. We’re loving the subtle yellow accents, and the shoes. Oh, the shoes. Max and Michaela infused their big day with important and meaningful traditions and details, and they even let Michael sneak them away from their reception for just a few moments for some epic sunset couples shots. Sigh. Doesn’t get any better than that. We hope you enjoy this small sneak peek of your photos, Max and Michaela, and can’t wait to present you with all of them! So honored to call you members of our (once like a spark) photography family. Big thanks to Nichole at Swank Events and Weddings!
Venue: River Highlands Ranch;
