FLORENCE + CHRIS: SAN RAMON WEDDING PHOTOGRAPHY-The Ranch at Little Hills

The Ranch at Little Hills was the perfect place for Florence and Chris to tie the knot, reflecting the very place they met and fell in love, Santa Cruz. The woodsy private ranch made for a tear-jerking intimate ceremony filled with laughter and joyous moments. I love how these two really brought out their personalities and likes throughout their day from repping purple and gold (as Chris would say, Go Lakers!) to Florence's vintage style ring and rainbow colored bridesmaids dresses. Everything was so unique but they tied it in so beautifully, and that's what I really love about this wedding, they stayed true to themselves yet embraced the diversity around them!

Congratulations to the beautiful couple! 

 

I love these Ed Hardy shoes, what a great way to rock some purple and yellow wedge heels!
 
 

This was the first time I got to witness glass breaking at a wedding, and when everyone shouted "Mazel Tov!" I felt so much joy and energy I wanted to shout it again!

AVA + ROYD: OAKLAND WEDDING PHOTOGRAPHY - St. Jarlath Church

She worked at the same bank as his mother, and there was something about her, something so uniquely special that his mother knew she was made for him.

Royd nervously made his way to make a "transaction' at the bank, you know just like any other customer, with a rose in hand. That day, he would make an investment worth far greater than anything money could buy, that day, with trust in his mother's judgment, Royd would meet and begin his journey with Ava, his beautiful bride. 
 

Mother, sister & bride kind of preparation at the Walnut Creek Marriott Hotel.

St. Jarlath Church made for wonderful acoustics and lighting for Ava + Royd's Catholic ceremony.
