Carrie + Adam: Married!

November 18th, 2009 @ 1:30 pm by Punam Bean

It rained all day at Carrie and Adam's wedding, but I think it just added to all the wonderful fall touches, and the lushness of Fort Tryon. Sometimes in the parks here in this great city of mine, when it rains, it's lush like a tropical rainforest outside, and all the leaves come alive with brilliant green. So yummy!

Amelia & Justin @ Amelia Lyon Photography's Picture
Amelia & Justin Lyon, Orange County Vendor: Photographer Website: Amelia Lyon Photography About Me: Hi, I am Amelia. I like to dance and sing my heart out in the car. My family has been in the wedding industry for 3 generations. Being the first photographer in the family, it has given me a unique perspective on how to keep things fresh and fun! Hello, I am Justin. I like to play Ping-Pong, and I too like to dance. Being a film and TV producer by trade, I am obsessed with finding the story that every image has to tell. Collectively we are wedding, portrait and music photographers. Now that we've started to tell you our story, why don't you let us capture yours?
About Amelia & Justin @ Amelia Lyon Photography

Once again, I heart LOVE shooting family weddings! I also heart LOVE visiting and shooting Idaho in September! When you put family, weddings, and Idaho in September all together it equals a very happy and content Amelia!

Justin's sweet cousin Ashley contacted us a few months ago to attend and shoot her wedding. We anxiously accepted because 1. we love Ashley and 2. we really needed a good excuse to visit family in Idaho! I ended up having to go alone because Justin needed to be on set at Yo Gabba Gabba!, but I lucked out with great help with some of Justin's other cousins Jeramy and his sweet wife Shelley (you may recall these two from their wedding we shot last September, also in Idaho).

Congrats to Ashley and her new man Jarom!

Real Weddings {Succulents + Kale}

November 17th, 2009 @ 12:03 pm by Wiley Valentine

Ok so seriously have I mentioned lately how amazing Jesi Haack Weddings is? Well this wedding sure does prove it. On top of that this wedding is like my dream come true - not only is at my new favorite wedding venue Marvimon but it also was a collaboration of some of my favorite wedding vendors!

marvimonsucculent

How amazing are the florals!? Succulents + Kale + the brides grandmother's pearls on her bouquet? Jesi Haack Weddings was the genius behind the lovely details of this event AND the ridiculously gorgeous florals! I adore the pops of purple like the bride’s adorable purple pumps!

Jerry Yoon, San Francisco Vendor: Photographer Website: Jerry Yoon Photography About Me: Gone are the days of being stuck with boring wedding photography, where everyone and everything looks like the same old photographer took it. We're not here to please your mom. We want to rock your socks off with imagery that explodes off the page and makes you feel all fuzzy inside. We're inspired by who you are and not what others think you should be. Playwright, architect, nuclear scientist, tax man, dance machine, burly construction man, blog stalker. We take them all. Can't wait to jump into the pool together and make something your kindergarten teacher would be proud of!
About jerryyoon

We haven’t blogged in a week or so, because we spent all last week in Texas at the Foundation Conference. Learning from some of the best photographers out there is always a good thing. It was the first year that the conference was put on and I must say it's probably been my favorite one out of the seven or so I've been to in the past. So now we're super behind on blogging, but hopefully this next post will make up for it.

It was another foggy San Francisco wedding day, but we love that as photographers, because it makes out for interesting lighting. The sky is diffuse and the fog can add an element of mystery. Some people worry that days like this will ruin the photography, but we love it. Plus, we had an awesome couple like Meagan and Sperry to shoot with. Shooting at the Legion of Honor can be difficult, because of how the architecture can just overwhelm the images. Here's some highlights from the day.

Kristin Brancaleone, Rancho Santa Margarita, CA Vendor: Floral Designer Website: The Treasured Petal About Me: The Treasured Petal is a reflection of my love for scrumptious flowers, yummy textures, colors, ribbons, and all the other girly splurges that being a florist allows me to enjoy on a daily basis. Although I don't discriminate when it comes to flowers, my two favorites would have to be cattleya orchids and gloriosa lilies, which I carried in a ginormous bouquet on my wedding day. When I'm not crafting wedding florals and consulting with brides, I am usually at the dog park with my dogs Pesto and Basil, cooking healthy vegan dinners, watching Seinfeld with my husband Joe, at Bible study, or scouring craigslist for antique furniture to fill up my new house. I am also kind of a home-body and really love sipping tea in my pajamas while working my way down my google reader blog list!
About thetreasuredpetal

I just love Barbara and Aaron! Last night we had a triple date at Lola Gaspar's (quickly becoming my new favorite restaurant) along with Christina and James, who I also adore. We talked for over 3 hours as we devoured honey butter drenched tortillas and sangrias. Such an awesome night! They were such sweet, gracious clients and now friends. If you haven't checked it out yet, see their feature in Utterly Engaged, with images by the incredible Gabriel Ryan!

I want to share some pictures of their Casa Romantica wedding captured by another photographer friend of theirs, Jeffrey Neal. He used film to document their wedding story as a gift, and I just love the texture and richness of the images. Please check out his blog for more pics (especially the slideshow of details at the end!) I couldn't resist posting a few here.

The most beautiful smile award goes to…

About anneruthmann

Every once in a while, a couple comes along that changes my life forever…

I tend to fall in love with people while photographing them and often come away from the experience with a sense of admiration and love that is normally difficult to achieve when you're just meeting someone for the first time. Now, I'm not sure if my couples end up feeling the same way about me, but hopefully they see my love in the images they end up with. ;-) Sally & Rodney just blew me away with their kindness, joy, love, compassion, and inner beauty, which resonates in everything they do and with everyone they meet. While most couples will keep in touch maybe a year or two after their wedding, they often slip out of contact and remain beautiful memories, but Sally & Rodney have only become closer to me as friends over the years and through the many different twists and turns our lives have taken since then.

angelswanson's Picture
Angel Swanson, Los Angeles Vendor: Wedding Planner Website: Events of Love and Splendor About Me: I plan, design, coordinate weddings in southern California for living. It's a dream job and I adore every aspect of it! I find inspiration everyday in nature, art, history, and fashion, and bring my whimsical personal aesthetic to each event I take on. I love to travel and am always planning my next vacation. Cooking is also a passion -- in another life I would be a Food Network star.
About angelswanson

Claudine & David are a very special couple to me; iIadored them from the moment I met them at our consultation. The first thing that struck me about the two of them: they are one good-looking pair!!  The second thing — they share a deep love and respect for one another, and a companionship that I truly admire. I love falling in love with my clients, and being inspired by their relationships. it's just another joyful part of this job i am blessed to have. :)

Claudine and David were wed in september in a beautiful, traditional Catholic ceremony at Sacred Heart Chapel, on campus at LMU (where Claudine is an alum and lecturer!).  The reception took place in Roski dining room, also on campus at LMU.  It is a sleek, modern space that was re-done literally *weeks* before their big day. What timing, right?? :)  The space is adjacent to a lovely contemporary garden (Shea Terrace), with abstract sculptures and water features, as well as the perfect raised area for dancing under the stars.  The evening unfolded beautifully and I am delighted to share a glimpse of the day with you through the lens of my dear friends, Amelia & Justin Lyon. To know them is to love them!  They are both wildly talented, tons of fun, and wonderful to work with. The images they captured for Claudine and David are simply stunning. Make sure to click over to their blog for more pics & a slideshow!

Sabrina & Eunice @ Hello! Lucky's Picture
Sabrina & Eunice Moyle, San Francisco, CA Vendor: Invitations & Stationery Website: Hello! Lucky About Me: We (sisters Eunice and Sabrina Moyle) started Hello!Lucky in 2003 out of Eunice's garage with a hand-cranked Vandercook printing press. Since then we've created whimsical stationery and greeting card designs for almost every occasion, including wedding invitations, save the dates, thank you notes, and a line of hilarious sock monkey cards! We love crafting, flea marketing, fashion, travel, and all things paper. We're based San Francisco with a studio in London, so we're immersed in design trends from around the world!
About Sabrina & Eunice @ Hello! Lucky

We are sure there is, in some peoples' minds, the assumption that the perfect English wedding should be held in mid-summer with small bridesmaids in pink voile running over emerald green, sun-dappled lawns, bright roses on the tables, food and cake a-plenty and all to the sound of laughter and clink of champagne flutes (or - to each their own - beer glasses!).

The August wedding of Sarah McKee and Patrick Barry didn't disappoint on any of the above.

Dana + Rob; Married!

November 3rd, 2009 @ 6:25 pm by Punam Bean

Yes. My job is pretty amazing. Most weekends, I embark upon a unique journey with a uniquely in love couple, and I get to share in all the joy, excitement and anticipation. Somedays I just feel like I'm on the verge of tears all day long, because there is just so much love coursing through everyone that I am in an ocean of it. Dana and Rob are amazing. I had SUCH a great time! Yay!

An extra special thanks to Stacy Reeves who made the trip all the way from Dallas to second shoot for me!

Dana and Rob
