RECENT WEDDINGS
Jeanine & Joshua – Wedding photographs from River Park Bible Church and Fig Garden Swim and Racquet
Jeanine and Joshua were married at River Park Bible Church with their reception following at the Fig Garden Swim and Racquet Club. One of the highlights for the day was the transportation between the church and the club. Jeanine and Joshua kept it a secret from the bridal party until we all walked outside and the Clovis Trolly was waiting for us. I rode with the bridal party to the reception and got some great images along the way – very cool way to travel for sure! I had a great little session with the couple at the club and the night finished with a fabulous reception full of great toasts, a ballroom dancing exhibition by Jeanine’s parents (I hear they’ve
Kristin + Jarrod – Wedding Photographs from the Cross Church and Tornino’s
Kristin and Jarrod were married at the Cross Church just a few weeks ago. The Cross Church has some unique architectural features that are fun to use and I always enjoy the opportunity to work there! As an added bonus we made a quick pit stop in my Old Fig Garden neighborhood to get a couple cool shots of the bridal party on the gorgeous, tree-lined streets. I’m happy to finally get this posted after a longish delay – I flew out to a much appreciated vacation in Hawaii the morning after this wedding. It’s good to be back, hope you enjoy my favorites!
Laura + David – Wedding from Victorian Gardens of Two Sisters
Laura and David were married at Victorian Gardens of Two Sisters a few weeks ago on a warm July evening. Of course they planned on it being hot and had late ceremony and no one was required to wear a tux! Just a cool, laid back kinda day with an incredibly warm and friendly couple. Check out my favorites above!
Stephanie + Alex – A Pines Resort at Bass Lake Wedding
Remember that ridiculously hot weekend last weekend? Well Stephanie, Alex and I spent most of Saturday hanging out outside for their wedding. You would never know it by the pictures, but even in the mountains it was over 100 degrees. There was a point that having the wedding IN the lake, rather than next to the lake, seemed like a really good idea. In the end though, the wedding went perfectly, the ceremony was a pleasant 7 minutes, and we all made a dash (after a few photo-ops) to the cool of the air-conditioned reception. Above are a few of my favorites, take a look and enjoy.
Emily + Adam – A Wolf Lakes Wedding
In a strange little time warp, Emily contacted me to see about me photographing her wedding. So, as usual, I invited her over and she brought her fiancee Adam and his parents. Through the whole meeting I kept thinking his parents looked familiar. Finally at the end, Adam’s dad said the same thing and we quickly realized that we knew each other from some 20 odd years before. We had all gone to the same church when I was 10 or 11 and Adam was just a toddler – the little brother of my friends (at the time) Andrew and Matt. It was a great wedding with the added plus of getting to catch up with a great family from my
Cari + Eli – My 100th Wedding, Coming to You From Beautiful Wolf Lakes Park and the Chapel at People’s Church
Of course, EVERY wedding I photograph is special as for most couples it’s a defining moment that rises above most others in their life. And for Cari and Eli, I have no doubt it’s the same. But this particular wedding was exceptionally special for reasons more personal to me. This was the 100th wedding I have had the pleasure of photographing. It’s a big number and a number that a few years ago seemed astronomically far away, but I have been blessed by many fabulous couples that have chosen me to document their very special day. Thank you to Cari and Eli and the 99 other couples that have been inspired enough by my work to make it possible for me to do
