I recently put together this collage of gorgeous wedding day bridal portraits for a magazine and couldn’t resist sharing them here on our blog. Ladies, you’re all gorgeous!

Today we received a few copies of The Knot Northern California Fall/Winter issue, in which Sarah and Jason’s gorgeous Napa Valley wedding has a two-page Real Wedding feature! This issue has a special wine country section that we’re so happy to be a part of.

Sarah and Jason’s wedding at Chappellet Winery in St. Helena, CA, was a very intimate, mostly DIY affair, which came together with the help of the couple’s dear friends and of course their own talents as a chef and sommelier.

We’re so excited that The Knot chose to feature our images from Kristen and Boaz’s Pasadena wedding! The Southern California Fall/Winter edition of The Knot is available now, so pick one up and look for this:

With the help of their talented coordinator, Carina McLaughlin of Tealight Weddings and Events, LV Floral Events, Susie Chhuor, Truly Yours Catering and Cakery Bakery, Kristen and Boaz had the wedding of their dreams!

Stay tuned for our feature in The Knot Northern California Fall/Winter issue, too.

Update
The Knot has featured more of the wedding on their website. Check it out.

We have another gorgeous custom Digital Layout album to share with you today. Nicole and Keith’s wedding at the Jack House in San Luis Obispo was full of bright red details. Suitably, they chose a solid-red leather cover for this great look:

Music by: Plain White T’s

The wedding was a few years ago, but more importantly, this album will be with Nicole and Keith, and their families, for many, many more years. I’m so glad we were able to make this great album for them!

Our post about Meghan and Charles’ stunning Hand Crafted Elegant Album was such a hit I had to share this one of Marlene and Richard’s beautiful, simple, 111 image Digital Layout Custom Album:

Music by: Brett Dennen

Marlene and Richard chose to keep their album clean, bright and simple, opting for an ivory leather cover with only their names and wedding date in embossed black on the lower right corner of the front cover. It looks pretty classy!

Cassie and Jeff had a beautiful, outdoor wedding at the very cool 19th century Victorian Camarillo Ranch House in Camarillo, California.

Jenelee and Ryan asked us to photograph their engagement portraits around downtown Los Angeles, including the amazing architecture at the Walt Disney Concert Hall, which is a work of art in its own right. The modern style of the building really suits one of my favorite aspects of art and photography – design. The urban photography was a great fit for Jenelee and Ryan’s style and personalities. We had a blast together.

I love it when a couple has a fun idea and we’re able to help them bring it to life through our photography. Renee and Jonathan love photography (okay, mostly Renee) and they wanted to stage a shoot that incorporated airplanes, Jonathan’s grandfather’s dog tags and a retro feel. And, you have to love Renee’s good sense to throw on the red belt and heels!

Lindsey and Muki’s wedding day began with a beautiful, traditional Chinese tea ceremony. Lindsey looked gorgeous in her red silk dress!

In honor of Laura + Jeremy’s upcoming wedding we thought it would be fun to share their awesome engagement session at The Getty Center. I was lucky enough to join Adam on this shoot and had such a blast getting to know Laura and Jeremy as well as getting some beautiful images. Here are some of our favorites!
