Courtlin + Truc: Married!
Courtlin and Truc will be having three weddings in total! The first took place in my backyard under the tangerine trees where my husband acted as “Rev” and paperwork was signed and sealed.

Laura + KC: Married!

I love this wedding! It was small, it was simple, it was beautiful, and Jill and Troy were relaxed and carefree and totally in love. The wedding, like the couple, was a perfect mix of mainland and Hawaii. Jill’s awesome fire engine red shoes and her funky photo location ideas were complemented by local traditions,...
Kristine + Nick: Married!
Kristine is a girl who knows what she wants and doesn’t mess around about it! No doubt, that makes her one of San Francisco’s finest young doctors, a fantastic mom to an adorable little boy and a wife to be reckoned with for the easy going Nick. I was happy to follow Kristine’s lead from the day we...
