Kathleen & Wesley | San Francisco Wedding Photography
It was a beautifully warm day on 9.10.11, perhaps the most popular wedding date of the year. Kathleen got ready in her hotel room in South San Francisco, and then she hopped into the gorgeous 1946 Rolls Royce Bentley to join her husband-to-be at the church in San Francisco.

Cat & Dan | City Girl & Farm Boy | Buffalo, New York Engagement Photography

Raquel & Andy | Chautauqua, NY Wedding Photography
It’s true, as Andy joked– it’s equally inconvenient for everyone. Even from the nearest airport we drove past several vineyards, the occasional corn field, and plenty of woods– until we reached the giant lake and the little town. Chautauqua. It may be far, but it is truly a sanctuary, with its tightly clustered houses referencing…

Kate & Mike | The Cliff House | San Francisco Wedding Photography
It was a very chilly day, which is actually typical of our San Francisco summers by the coast. The skies were overcast, and the water a serene pale blue-green. But against the wash of the ocean were bright exclamations of color: a red carpet; the bold blue bridesmaid’s dresses; a radiant bride; and a bubbling…
