Nothing beats the glamorous Fairmont Hotel in downtown San Francisco. Lindsay and Brent said their vows on the rooftop overlooking the Transamerica pyramid and all of downtown, what a great way to begin a marriage. I loved how she carried a piece of her mom, who is no longer with us, with her all day long on her bouquet and the sweet words that were spoken during the heartfelt speech by her Dad. You could feel the love and emotion in the room when her Dad spoke about how much he loved his daughter, words of pride spilling into the room. Thank you for having me capture your sweet, Fall wedding - it was as wonderful as you both are! Oh and thanks to Brent for showing me the extra special secret kept by the Fairmont, The Tonga Room! I still have to go there and sip on some rum punch.

To my 2nd hands & eyes, Emily, thank you.

Put together a boisterous bunch, a few animals, cowboy hats, a decent amount of vodka, food trucks and love and you have this day. Diablo Ranch set this rustic wedding apart, a true ranch just tucked away in the hills of Walnut Creek complete with horses, a large steer and a cute emu. It was just such a fun day to capture with all the love that you could feel surrounding Tiffany and Fayek and their undoubtable chemistry with one another. I think perhaps my favorite part of the day was when the steer got loose during the first look, I would have had some photos to share, except I think we were all too busy fleeing and fearing being trampled by this large four hoofed creature! It was such a privilege of photograph your amazing, full of life day!

And again a HUGE Thank you to Emily for shooting with me...can't seem to thank you enough. And of course what would be a party without my good friend Kevin from Sound and Motion - so fun to work together, lets do it again and again!
