2009 has been our year for shooting weddings in Northern California, from San Francisco to Napa Valley, its been fun mixing it up and in the midst of it all Justin and I have enjoyed traveling.
Stephanie + Sam were married on September 4th in San Francisco. They held their wedding ceremony at the Merchants Exchange Building and then held a beautiful reception in the Julia Morgan Ballroom inside of that same building. The first time we actually met Stephanie + Sam was the day before their wedding when we toured their amazing venue together to get a feel for what the next day would be like. We were super excited after getting acquainted with Stephanie + Sam and could not wait for their wedding day to unfold!
No joke, Julia Morgan was an amazing designer and architect! Justin and I have been fans of her work ever since we visited Hearst Castle a few years back. She was a very talented woman. Now onto the rest of the details:
Congratulations to Stephanie + Sam, what a sweet day, thank you for having us along for the ride!

I LOVE the Williams family to bits and pieces! Even though they aren't really blood related, they might as well be! Ryan has been a long time best friend to my first cousin Sam and Heather's Aunt is married to my other first cousin (Sam's older brother)....make any sense?! You may recall their faces from over a year ago from a post we did featuring a shoot we did of Wendy as a baby. It's crazy to see time pass and watch Wendy as a little girl now! Here are some of my favs from our shoot a few weeks ago:
