engagement session

Amanda + Steven

AMANDA + STEVEN: PLEASANTON, CA CASA REAL AT RUBY HILL WINERY

We can still remember when Amanda and Steven contacted us from the Bay Area and asked if we would meet them half way for a consult. It was a slightly rainy day and we were a bit hesitant to brave the weather all the way over the hills for a consult, but boy was it worth the drive. These two were awesome. They were so easy going and down to earth and we all knew right from the consult that we were right for each other. Their engagement session was in San Francisco and at the Palace of Fine Arts and Amanda in her deep blue dress just slayed. The chemistry these two had behind the camera was unreal. So much love just poured through in their photos. After the engagement session we simply couldn't wait for their big day at Casa Real at Ruby Hill Winery. And when that day finally rolled around it did not disappoint one bit. Their wedding was a dream, and although Steven was extraordinarily dapper in his blue tux, once again Amanda stole the show and slayed in her gorgeous Madison James wedding gown. Check out some highlights from their beautiful wedding day and leave these happy newlyweds a big congrats below!!!

Melissa + Jordan

MELISSA + JORDAN: LODI, CA WINE & ROSES

We absolutely fell in love with these two from the start. Melissa is impossible not to love... she's such a sweetheart. Although it was smoldering hot outside both Melissa and Jordan were great to work with. They never complained once as we escorted them all over their venue for photos (and trust us, yes we mean all over). We love the fact that they took our advice to heart and actually followed our planning guide (YAY that makes our hearts happy). They had a first look, her dress was ready on a nice hanger, her details were all in one place when we arrived, they were running on time, they chose a sunset ceremony time, their families were fun and dealt with our photography craziness with grace, not to mention how gorgeous of a couple they are, goodness it was just perfect. Their wedding took place in Lodi CA at the always beautiful Wine & Roses Hotel and Spa, the place is an absolute dream in the later summer months.  Check out some of their gorgeous sun kissed photos and leave them a big congrats below!!!
