Roaring Camp Railroads Wedding in Felton Ca. with Lindsey and Carlos.

A few weeks ago I got to photograph Lindsey and Carlos wedding at Roaring Camp Railroads in Felton Ca. This was my first time shooting at Roaring Camp for a wedding and all I have to say what a unique experience. The way it works is everyone gets on a train to go to the ceremony up in a redwood grove then after the ceremony is done everyone re-boards the train then goes back down the mountain to the reception. It was lots of fun and I got to work with some other great vendors(List at end of post) including the always talented Heidi Hughett of Couture Celebrations. It's always great working with a coordinator because it makes my job that much easier. We got some great moments through out the day so check out what I captured.

A great portrait of the beautiful bride.

 

There is something about this image of the groom that I really like.

Santa Cruz Ca. Beach Wedding with Laura and Nicholas.

A few weeks ago I got to photograph Nicholas and Laura's Wedding in Santa Cruz, Ca. on the beach. They had a small intimate ceremony on the beach with their closest friends and family. You can really tell the love they have for each other when you are around them. I was really drawn to the black and white images from their wedding that's why most of the images I posted on the blog are black and white compared to color. Not to say that we did not get some great photographs in color, the images I picked just really show more about who Laura and Nicholas are as people. Check out what I captured.

A great moment of the bride.

A great use of negative space.

A great shot of the couple.

A cool landscape photograph of the couple.

Nicholas had a cool car so we had to take advantage of it.

Another great moment between the couple.

Livermore Ca. Wedding at Garre Vineyards with Meghan and Erik.

A few weeks ago I had the pleasure of photographing Meghan and Erik's Wedding at Garre Vineyards in Livermore Ca. Garre is such a beautiful venue and I always love photographing at Vineyards, there is just something about them. The day was perfect but a little hot, around 100 degrees to be exact. Coming from living in Santa Cruz I wasn't used to that hot of weather but still a great day. Thanks to Sylvain Gentile for coming out and helping me photograph. Check out some of the images I captured through out the day.

I love this shot of Meghan getting ready at Garre.
