Theirs was a whirlwind romance. Yoon, originally from Korea, was in Iowa for graduate school, while Steve, from Indiana, had found his way to Iowa for work. They were set up on a blind date and knew immediately that they had found something special. By their fifth date, Yoon was flying across the country to meet…
A look of disbelief passed between them. Happy, this-is-surreal disbelief, but disbelief nonetheless. It might have been the five years that have passed since they first fell in love and got engaged. They never thought it could happen, especially since they lived in Texas. Or it might have been the entire day of being pampered…
The final day of Anika and Vijay’s wedding may well have been the most spectacular of the three, which is no small feat when you look back on it all. Our day started with a tour of Jaisalmer, and then we came back for the Baraat, which did indeed include Vijay riding in on an…
A mile up the road from the lodge, we made the right turn. We wound down a short gravel road as the dust kicked up and painted golden beams of sunlight in the air. At the end of the path, a clearing– a spectacular clearing, with a canyon full of evergreens lit in the background….
Julie and Jeremy first met when their projects converged at Google. Actually, Julie had to pull a few strings to get Jeremy onto her project, but he finally helped her turn the Google Maps cursor into a panda bear for an April Fools joke. And as they tell it, it was love at first site….
It was like we were living in a beautiful fantasy, or more specifically, Anika’s beautiful fantasy. Even now, as I look back on these photographs, it feels like a dream, too incredible for reality. I had photographed Anika and Vijay’s unique and very sweet proposal last year, but for their wedding, they gave me the…
This wedding was such a special experience for me, because when I look at Jen, I can still see her as Jenni with a heart over the “i” from our elementary school days. We lost touch when I moved away in middle school but were reconnected some fifteen years later thanks to the magic of…
It is always an honor to be a part of a friend’s wedding, and this one was extra special, as I got to return to my home state of Ohio and photograph Karen, whom I’ve known for over a decade. Karen and Sam are cute and hilarious together. Their relationship is perhaps best exemplified by…
A lovely story, as told by our couple themselves: Once upon a time, there was a cute little hot dog stand in the lovely college town of Berkeley, CA that went by the name of Top Dog where our couple had their very first date. They shared a few laughs and maybe a napkin (or…
What an incredibly special wedding for a very special couple. All of the details were perfectly personal to them, including vintage birding table cards to reflect their love of birding, and the overall “1920s Paris” theme to reflect their year in Paris together and their love of all things historical. But the absolute best part…
Absolutely everything about Emma and Phil’s wedding was charming. The venue was a culinary institute in the heart of wine country. The colors and all of the flowers were beautiful. And most of all, the bride and groom were so obviously in love and kept tearing up throughout the day. I am so glad to…
I just love how happy Caterina and John are when they’re together. They are giddy with excitement and absolutely unstoppable. They first met in a dining hall, freshman year at Harvard, and they quickly became friends. Senior year, friendship turned to courtship, and soon after, they both got into their top choice medical school, UC…
