Bay Area Wedding Photographer : Megan and Kevin tie the knot at The Olympic Club in San Francisco

This coming weekend I have my first wedding of 2012 so it only feels right to blog my last wedding of 2011- FINALLY. Believe it or not, I still have a few weddings from 2011 to share that have been held up for one reason or another so if you haven't seen yours up here yet- stay tuned!

Megan was really a bride after my own heart- she had me with her emerald engagement ring- what a DREAM! I had such a great time communicating with her about all of her wedding details and working with her and her family was just a dream. Megan and Kevin tied the knot at the gorgeous St. Josephs Cathedral in downtown San Jose followed by a beautiful reception up at The Olympic Club. It was such a great way to end my 2011 season! Onward!

Bay Area Wedding Photographer : Published : Green Wedding Shoes + Magnolia Rouge Magazine

Near the end of last year I started to feel like I hadn't done anything fun in awhile. I was really yearning to shoot some images of pretty things that didn't come with the pressure to perform that a wedding did. I happened to come across the first issue of Magnolia Rouge and immediately wanted to be a part of issue 2! Kate was such a doll and when she told me Issue 2's theme was Nature, I reached out to Yelena and we started brainstorming. What ended up as our final product was something a little bit beautiful and a little bit freaky and I love it!

Check out the incredible issue 2 of Mag Rouge here and visit Green Wedding Shoes for my recent feature.

Magnolio Rouge : Issue 2

I had the utmost pleasure of working with Yelena Johnson on a shoot for the second issue of Magnolia Rouge Magazine ... The issue was nature themed and we had so much fun exploring a scientific approach to a wedding! Check out the new issue here and stay tuned for more images from this shoot to run on my blog soon. :)

{seriously amazing women who worked on this shoot}
