At the end of our Joshua Tree trip, we went ahead and stopped by Alhambra for lunch since we had to go through LA to drop off Courtney anyway. Oh, how silly, because I would be back two days later to photograph Emily & Adithya’s wedding! But in between, I had to go back up…

The forecasts were ominous. Though they fluctuated by the hour, they all agreed: it would rain every day this weekend. And while the bride and groom were upbeat and ready to roll with the rain plan, they certainly didn’t choose Yosemite hoping to get married indoors. Rachel’s late father had lovingly run a summer camp for decades, and so…
Laura grew up in Los Angeles; Steve grew up in New York; and they both landed in San Francisco, where they met, fell in love, and pledged to stay together forever. Day to day, she might be busy saving lives as a doctor while he is working his serious office job in tech, but put them together, and you’ll start to see their silly…
