Mani + Teddy Wedding - Campovida Wedding - {Bay Area Wedding Photographer}

A little bit of magic, a little bit of the earth, serenity and a lot of love and Mani and Teddy said I do. Campovida set the perfect backdrop for this gorgeous day. What started as a blind date and just knowing that they both only shared one thing in common, being tall, led to this day. I loved all the details that friends helped put into this day, from doing Mani's hair and cupcakes and all the signs - such a supportive community of people! The tree planting ceremony at the wedding was such a unique touch as well - taking the soil from their hometowns (poured into the tree by their mothers) and the water from where they currently live (poured in by them) and putting it all together. Wishing you both the same peaceful, teariness that you felt on this day and may your love continue to grow just like that little tree. Enjoy the highlights.

Thank you to Zoe for driving all that way and shooting along side me that day!

Kirsten + Rusty Wedding - Cantigny Gardens, Wheaton Illinois Wedding - {Destination Wedding Photography}

Where do I even begin with this beautiful wedding day - as a practically sister, cousin, bridesmaid and photographer...Kirsten and Rusty are finally married. I can't believe my baby cousin is married, and not only just married but to her grade school boyfriend, love of her life.  The boyfriend that she swore for so many years was just a friend. It was one of those boy meets girl and slowly over many many years they build a foundation of love, trust and passion. This wedding was such a sweet story of all the memories they had together and all the memories to come, as this is the beginning all over again. Thank you for having me capture it, to be the one behind the camera and doing a bit of a circus act to be in front of the camera as well. It was a perfect day with perfect clouds and perfect love. xoxo

Thank you to Rebecca and Becky for shooting with me and finding that golden light in the beautiful Chicago clouds. James and team - ALWAYS a pleasure to work by your side - can't wait to see the video!
