Ashika and Steve - Married!

Like his friends say, Steve is either crazy or a genius.  I think the latter, as he ended up winning the heart of Ashika.  They were married on October 6th, 2012 at St. Bartholomew's Church in San Mateo.  It was a beautiful Catholic ceremony followed by an extravagant reception at the San Mateo Marriott Hotel.  From the pews at the church all the way to the bubble gum bar at the reception, Ashika planned this wedding down to a tee.  There are touches of both of their fun filled adventures everywhere you looked.

Here are some of the highlights:

 Congratulations Ashika and Steve! It was a hectic but ultimately rewarding day capturing your wedding!

Angela and Andrew - Married!

Angela and Andrew is a couple that was destined to be together. Their story is one giant fairy tale with a fantastic celebration at the Berkeley City Club.  The venue was created by Julia Morgan, who was also the architect for Hearst Castle!  Angela and Andrew were married on September 1, 2012.

Here are some of the highlights:

Congratulations Angela and Andrew! I had a fabulous time capturing your wedding day, and I wish you all the happiness in the world as your new life begins!

Angela and Andrew - Engaged!

I had never been to Washington Square in San Francisco before, so I was very happy that Angela and Andrew named it as their special place to hangout.  They took me to their favorite watering hole, a local Irish pub called O'Reilly's:

After grabbing a pint, we headed over to their favorite pastry shop, Mara's Italian Pastry:

Now that they were all filled up with a couple of chocolate croissants, we headed over to Washington Square Park to capture St Peter and Paul Church:

And then around the block and up Telegraph Hill.  A wonderful couple to photograph and I cannot wait to do their wedding!
