Courtney & Rob | Sneak Peek!

South Lake Tahoe one day, overnight drive to Santa Barbara that night...and I would have traveled anywhere to make this happen for Courtney and Rob. It doesn't hurt that they chose one of my favorite towns in California! Much more fabulous to come!

I had the pleasure of having Melissa Brandman second shoot with me for Courtney & Rob and she has delighted the blogging world with a sneak peek of her own at Melissa Brandman Photography. Many thanks to her for her help and fabulous style which will no doubt provide some fantastic images!

Melissa & Steve | Sneak Peek!

Traveling all the way from Illinois, Melissa and Steve chose to host an intimate event in South Lake Tahoe, CA. More? Patience, my friends...

Darby & Jon | Sneak Peek!

September is a crazy busy month! Starting with a trip to Bucks County, PA, I'm now on my way to Montana and then Santa Barbara! But before I leave, I wanted to post a sneak preview of the Bucks County wedding. It wasn't just any ol' Buck County wedding though- It was the marriage of a great childhood friend! I'll give the full report for the full post, but for now, here are some easy favorites.

p.s. The location of the first pick is an old general store that used to be called "The Patriot" in Washington Crossing State Park. We'd ride our bikes here as grade schoolers and get ice cream or candy and find a spot by the river to hang out. How surreal it was now being back as an adult and shooting a friend's wedding day here. Pardon the nostalgia, but it was pretty awesome!

p.s. Darby and Jon are currently on a three week, yes THREE WEEK, honeymoon in Hawaii. I'm not envious or anything...

Andy & Andrea | Zephyr Cove, NV /South Lake Tahoe, CA

When Andy and Andrea contacted me to shoot their wedding, they described it as a very intimate mid-week ceremony with a big photo shoot afterward. Really? How awesome is that! When I shot their engagement pictures a few months ago, we had a blast and I couldn't wait until their wedding day. Of course, I didn't mind having a wedding couple all to myself for a few hours after tying the knot at a private Zephyr Cove residence. We picked a few south shore locations that embodied their vision for the images and went to town!

Hair/Makeup: Sessions Salon

Flowers: Andy's mom!

During the ceremony, the rings were passed around so that all of their family could give them a blessing...

After the meadow, we headed over to the Valhalla estates. FYI: one of my FAVORITE places and the spot that I will be tying the knot next year!

Adorable garter also made by Andy's mom!
