Thank you.

I'm extremely honored and very grateful to be contacted by Jana and Kristi to not only photograph their engagement, 
but their BIG Day as well.

With the court's ruling this year, gay marriage became
 officially legal in California on June 26th, 2013. 

The Supreme Court ruled against the backers of California's

Prop. 8 gay marriage ban with a 5-4 decision. Yay!!

After legislation passed Jana and Kristi thought about having their Wedding conducted in San Francisco's City Hall on November 1st. 


However, if that day didn't work out, 
then they would choose another.
Why?


Because they said that they "absolutely wanted you to

photograph our Wedding." And if November 1st didn't work, they asked me when my schedule would be available for
me to photograph their Wedding.

WOW, WOW, WOW!!

I'm soooooooo humbled. Soooooo humbled indeed.
They would arrange their once in a lifetime BIG DAY around my schedule!!!! Eeeeeek!! OMG OMG OMG!!!
Of course I said YES!!!!!!!

Here are some photographs from their 
engagement photography session.

It was a true joy.
So much fun frolicking on the beach.
Laughing
Playing

Smiling
Embracing
Beauty
Love

the Fall foliage looked like we were shooting on the East Coast.)


 (Above: I love capturing all sorts of angles.
From way up high to down low. 
Wide to narrow, focused and detailed.)

 (Above: Here we are in Los Angeles,
although it felt like we were in a villa doing

a destination engagement photo shoot somewhere in 
South America.)

she did the "front of the ship" pose very well.
I love how Kristi is laughing!!!)
