RECENT WORK
Hayley and Jay | Copper River Country Club Wedding | Fresno, CA
What started out looking like a rainy day, ended up being a gorgeous day at Copper River Country Club. Hayley was looking amazing in her custom dress and Jay was looking dapper. So many beautiful details and emotional moments all around, all day. To finish it all off was a wild dance floor and live band to bring it all home. The lighting from the stage was some of the funnest light I've had to work with - I loved playing with it and the added dimension to the dance party! Enjoy a few of
Jenna and Austin | Panoche Creek Wedding | Fresno, CA
Jenna, Austin, their 2 dogs and a 100 some odd friends and family brought the bling to Panoche Creek on a beautiful spring day. The river's waters were still running high, but everything on site was beautifully lush and green and Cassandra's great skill as a planner (Weddings by Cassandra) brought everything together. Jenna was looking fantastic in her gown and her puppy was adorable ball of fur! Enjoy of few of my favorites from their wedding.
Laura and Brad | Majestic Yosemite Hotel Wedding | Yosemite National Park
Laura and Brad were married on the side patio at the Majestic Yosemite Hotel (formerly The Ahwahnee Hotel). I'm regularly asked "what do we do if it rains?", and this wedding answers the question splendidly! Can you tell it was raining? The park is a beautiful place in all weather and a little rain is easy to manage and the pictures take on a whole different quality. Of course your ceremony probably won't happen on the lawn, but the side patios at the Ahwahnee are impressive settings for a wedding in any case. I love
Jordan and Nick | Ranch Engagement Session | Los Banos, CA
I travel a lot around the country and invariably meet new people who ask where I’m from. When I tell them California, their eyes glaze over and I can see the images of oceans and beaches, and mountains and trees that flash across their minds. I stop them and try to explain, that no, where I’m from is actually more like Texas than whatever they’re imagining right now but they never seem to quite believe me. California’s a big state, and in the middle of it is the biggest bit of farmland around and this post
Mandi and Ryan | St Paul Armenian Wedding | Fresno, CA
Mandi and Ryan were married just a few weeks ago on a beautiful, early fall day. The high point had to be Mandi getting ready in her grandmother's home. It was an amazing time capsule, I don't think the selection of vintage decor could be done better if one tried. The rest of the day was relaxed and I had a great time hanging out with the two of them. I get asked frequently if I ever photograph weddings in churches, well yes I do, here you go...enjoy!
Taylor and Connor | Wolf Lakes Wedding | Sanger, CA
This wedding comes to you from the ever beautiful Wolf Lakes Park outside Fresno, CA. As gorgeous as it is, it takes on an extra special quality when the impressive surroundings mix with a truly special couple and their friends and families. Taylor and Connor are two of the most warm-hearted people I have had the pleasure of working with, and it really shows in these images. I loved working with them, and I hope you enjoy the results.
