well really two for Janice & Justin. More coming soon!

I’ve been so bad at sharing magazines publications that I thought I’d just throw some of this past years out in one post. So here you go. Congrats to all my great couples who were featured all across the country and world and thank you to the magazines who support my work! I’m so thankful.

to Marlee & Dave for being featured on Inspired by This!  And a great big thank you to Leila for the love, it’s always fun and such an honor.  Be sure and hang around the Inspired By blog for some great wedding ideas.

 had a classic LA wedding at the Biltmore, enjoy!

 

I’m back! I took at bit of a break from blogging but am happy to say, I’m back. And ready to kick off this year with 3 wonderful weddings from January. Let’s start with Molly & Zak. After the ceremony they snuck off to the diner at the Ace Hotel for a quiet moment. I love that! Up next…Kristy & Blake.

As promised more of Elena & Gregory’s wedding celebration (see Day 1 here).  Elena and Gregory both live in Florence and work at the Florence Opera where they met.  Elena is Italian and American.  She grew up in Italy with lots and lots of trips to American and San Francisco where her mother’s family lives.  Gregory is French.  So this was a truly international celebration!  Anyway it seems it was about a year ago when I got the first email from Elena asking if I would be willing to come to Italy to shoot her wedding.  I really had to think hard about it…for all of about 2 seconds.  Yes, Yes, Yes!  So for a year I enjoyed the most wonderful email correspondence with Elena who thankfully speaks both English and Italian.  Then finally September rolls around and I head off to Italy and finally got to meet her and Gregory in person.  And what a wonderful celebration the wedding week was!  Elena styled the entire wedding herself and it was perfection (see contact info below, she’s taking weddings for 2010).  There was love and laughter and of course music!  So here it is, Day 2 of Elena & Gregory’s super duper Italy wedding.  Baci!

I’m thrilled to be sharing images from day 1 of Elena & Gregory’s amazing italian wedding. How lucky am I to get to go all the way to Florence to photograph this two day international celebration! I’m breaking this up into two posts, today the ceremony in Florence, come back in a few days for part 2, all the great details and moments from their tuscan castle reception and of course one of my favorite parts of shooting a wedding, the couples photos.

So happy to be sharing Marlee & Dave’s wedding day!  These two were all smiles (and some funny faces) all day long.  It was such a pleasure being a part of their wedding and to get to work with one of my very favorite wedding stylist - Rebecca Stone of Duet Weddings.  Marlee and Dave are such a kind and caring couple, not to just each other but everyone around them.  Marlee send me the nicest email after the wedding, before she even saw one photo.  Isn’t it nice to feel appreciated!  Congrats you two!
