Encourage...and a BIRTHDAY shout out :)

Today, I want to give a shout out to my dear friend Lauren...it's her BIRTHDAY!!  You might remember her from my LSL post :)  In one of her recent blog post, she mentions a website called en.cour.age...it's a really cool website with lots of motivational quotes and pictures...a very "encouraging" website! 

So in honor of her birthday, I found this quote :) 

And here's the birthday girl!!  I love this picture of you...always remember to laugh :)

Happy Birthday Lady!!

Summertime...Just Because

It's been such a wonderful and busy summer!  I am blessed to have had the opportunity to be an assistant photographer with two wonderfully talented (and extremely nice) photographers, Gladys Jem of Gladys Jem Photography and Heather Kincaid of Heather Kincaid Photography!  I have to thank you both for having me there alongside, and for not only the opportunity to document such wonderful weddings...but also to just hang out with you both ;)  You ladies are awesome!! 

There will be another post soon with more of my experiences with 2nd shooting, but until then...here is an image that I photographed from one of Gladys Jem's weddings!! 

Arielle + Mike = Love.

Bay Area Wedding Photographer - Lori + Joe {Alameda : Merlot Commodore Yacht}

An intimate gathering of close friends and family boarded the Merlot Commodore Yacht to witness Lori and Joe become husband and wife.  The weather was perfect, the details matched their style, and there was excitement in the air.  Lori and Joe, I couldn't be more happy for the both of  you...and your family!  There were many times throughout the day that I just stood back and smiled (and wiped a tear).  I witnessed two hearts coming together as one.  Two souls meant to be together.  Two people in love.  The way you both looked at each other was just magical.  Ryeleigh is such a lucky little girl to have you both as parents! 

Thank you for having me there to document such a wonderful day...and especially sailing around the bay...amazing!  Now I can say I have sailed underneath the Golden Gate Bridge :)

Congratulations...and I wish you much love and happiness!  Enjoy your travels, and your new life as husband and wife!!

Here are just a few of my favorite images from the day...and be sure to check out the slideshow (with EVEN MORE :)
