RECENT WEDDINGS
Rosa and Mark – A Wedding from St. Columba in Chowchilla, CA
Alright, it’s weird when you have the same name as the groom – your head is constantly snapping around because people keep saying your name… 🙂
Rosa and Mark were married just over a week ago at St. Columba in Chowchilla, CA. In a first of my career, I was asked, motioned, called, whatever you want to call it, up on the altar during the ceremony which allowed some great images that I have never been able to make. Typically, I don’t find a way up there – as I don’t care to make, or be part of, a scene – but I certainly appreciate being given that type of access. Below are a few of my favorites, I know Rosa and
Jennifer and Stephen | Holy Spirit Church & Pardini’s | Fresno, CA Wedding
Jennifer and Stephen were finally married a couple weeks ago in a beautiful ceremony at Holy Spirit Church followed by a fabulous reception at Pardini’s in Fresno. I say finally because from the sound of things I think they’ve were engaged for like 14 years – I know they’ve had me booked for looooong time. I’ve got to throw out an honorable mention to the entertainment from the reception – a great cover band that I heard for the first time. If you’re looking for a live band for your wedding, definitely check out Run 4 Cover. Special thanks to my friend, the talented Adam Gerling, for his help second shooting during the ceremony!

Emily and Waylon – Wedding from Wonder Valley Ranch
I had the pleasure of photographing the wedding of two incredibly warm-hearted people a couple weeks ago on an unseasonably warm day at Wonder Valley Ranch. We had a grand time finished off by surprise song, sung by Emily to Waylon, to close out the night. Here’s a few of my favorites…
Alexis and Nathan – Wedding from St. George Greek Orthodox Church
A big ol’ Greek wedding with one of the nicest couple of people you could ever want to meet! Full of great expressions, emotion and beautiful decor. This is a big post, take your time… 😉
Kristine and Bryan – Wedding from St. John’s and the Downtown Holiday Inn
Kristine and Bryan were married on a beautiful, crisp and cool day in March. And aside from a small mishap regarding the delivery location for the flowers (don’t worry, it all worked out!), everything was fantastic! St. John’s is one of my favorite churches and keeping everything downtown made for easy use of some cool locations for the portraits. Check out a few of my favorites below…
Leah and Blair | Wedding from Reedley MB and the Family Orchard
Leah and Blair had a spectacular plan for their wedding day – and with more than a few nervous looks to the sky hoping the rain wouldn’t come, it came off beautifully. Leah’s family orchard was in full bloom and made for a perfect setting for photographs and the backdrop to their reception in the barn. Their ceremony took place at the Reedley Mennonite Brethren church. The highlight of the day is when Leah and Blair arrived to the reception in a fully restored Ford Model A, driving down the grassy lane planted down one of the orchard rows.
I must also mention the talented Mr. Mariano Friginal accompanied me to shoot video – see the sweet trailer
