Tucson wedding: Michelle and Dusty sneak peek

amy — Fri, 16 Dec 2011 17:36:31 +0000

Last weekend I spent a long travel morning to get from Los Angeles to Tucson by about 12:30p!

I wouldn’t do that for just anybody, but a few weeks ago my dear (adorable, hilarious) friend Michelle told me she was getting married, and by the way would I photograph it for her?

Um, yes. Of course! So, we made it happen!

These are just a couple images from the day – Michelle was so calm and radiant the whole day!

More to come!

Paso Robles Vineyard wedding : Album Design : Keith and Shannon

amy — Fri, 17 Jun 2011 11:01:44 +0000

So many couples spend thousands of dollars on their wedding photographer…. and then just let their images sit on a disc for years and years

Ahem. I am absolutely guilty of this.

Which is why I was so glad that Keith and Shannon chose a wedding package that included a big, fat, 30 page, 12×12 inch, leather-bound wedding album.

The wedding day holds such an important part of each couple’s story … and the wedding album is such a lovely way to record that story.

When my couples get a wedding album, my goal is to put together a pre-design for them with the images I have selected to best tell the story of their love, of their family and of their full wedding day. After the pre-design, couples have a solid jumping-off point to tweak and shift and adjust the album to include their own favorite photos and moments.

Below are just a few images and layouts from Keith and Shannon‘s wedding album, recently delivered to them.

Thick pages like this really help protect the album from accidental creases or wrinkles caused by little hands that will undoubtedly want to pour over the album again and again.

While the center fold of the album IS visible, it in no way distracts from the full-page designs that take up more than one side.

If there are particular images that you just LOVE, we can print all the way to the edge of the page for the most dramatic effect.

I’m quite proud of this album, and I know Keith and Shannon are too …

If you have any questions about getting a wedding album for your own event, please email me!

Am I the one for you?

amy — Fri, 10 Jun 2011 10:20:20 +0000

If you’ve never been married before, I encourage you to think about this before starting heavy planning on your wedding …

What is the number one thing you want to remember about your wedding?

Is it the way your cake plate matched your garter?

Is it the perfect way your reception seat assignments were laid out?

Is it that all your bridesmaids had the exact same hair-do?

If these are the kind of things that are important to you, I’m not sure I’m the right wedding photographer for you.

When I first started to fall in love with photography, I knew that documentary-style was much more for me than fashion-style photography.

I toyed (briefly) with the idea of photojournalism and going to find a job for a newspaper, or going to create my own work in the slums of Buenos Aires …. or something similar. But honestly, those kind of stories depress me.

Yes, covering the hurricane disasters ARE important … and I have SO much respect for photographers who are willing to risk their lives to document stories like that.

Mostly because I am NOT.

I would much rather document events where everyone wants to be there and has been looking forward it for months.

I want to document happy. I want to document love. I want to document authentic relationships.

I look for laughter, I look for affection and I am am ALWAYS on the look out for the real moments between friends and family.

Rest assured …. I WILL take photos of your gorgeous centerpieces. I will ABSOLUTELY document your elaborate candy buffet. I am MORE THAN HAPPY to get the perfect shot of your once-in-a-lifetime Christian Louboutins.

But if those things are your #1 priority in getting married – I’ll be happy to help you find a different photographer who might be a better fit.

One year ago today I was in Paso Robles watching (and photographing) some sweet friends getting married… At a winery in one of their favorite travel destinations, over-looking wine country.

So gorgeous …. so happy …

Keith and Shannon are truly adorable together – and we are so glad we can call them our friends!

Congrats on your first year of marriage!

P.S. They just signed off on their album design and got it a couple weeks ago …. Just in time to show off for their anniversary. A post with a couple images from the album is coming!

Paso Robles Vineyard wedding : Portraits : Keith and Shannon

amy — Fri, 30 Jul 2010 11:00:27 +0000

Continuing with Keith and Shannon’s Pear Valley Vineyard wedding ….

Keith and Shannon chose a vineyard for their wedding as a very personal connection to their relationship. They have been dating for several years and have taken many (many) trips up to central California for a relaxing wine weekend. They particularly like Paso Robles, so I think finding Pear Valley for their wedding was just perfect!

The vineyard essentially gave us full rein over the property …. When we started portraits, they opened up the barrel room for us:

Flowers by Sprigs n Things …. Just LOOK at that purple. Love love love.

Thanks Erin for getting me such beauty to photograph

More images to come!

Los Angeles wedding – Middle Ranch sneak peek

amy — Fri, 09 Jul 2010 11:33:45 +0000

Last weekend I helped shoot a wedding with Renee Bowen at Middle Ranch, in Los Angeles.

Have you ever checked out Middle Ranch? It’s absolutely the kind of venue I would choose if I was getting married …. big, gorgeous, outdoor lawn and huge trees for the ceremony location …. with the reception venue on the same property.

Love it!

Thanks to Renee for letting me shoot with you! So so fun! I love 2nd shooting …. seriously, I’m up for it any time.

Here is just a quick sneak peek of my images …. more to come!

and here’s just a quick shot of Renee in action!
