Brittany & Dan were actually a referral from another wonderful couple of mine and I know I was super nervous to meet with them and later photograph them because, Dan is a photographer himself and a very talented one at that! - you can check out his amazing work here and here. But they were just so down to earth and kind - and just really fun to be around. I was so excited that they wanted to book me AND that they wanted to do their engagement session at Yosemite.

It was a weekend celebration at a special place to the couple in Ukiah. The first day was spent greeting and catching up with people. The next day as people got ready, the air was a little different as we were all excited and a little nervous! Come take a step back through time with me and take a look at this wonderful wedding.

I’ve been starting to publish my previous, pre-pandemic intimate weddings (FINALLY!) - so here’s one from the Mendocino Coast at Jug Handle Creek Farm & Nature center.

Have you heard??! San Francisco City Hall is reopening to the public! Beginning June 7, 2021, SF City hall will be open with limited hours for appointments AND walk-in services, Monday through Friday. Find out more information here if you’d like to get married there or pick up a marriage license!

Part 2!!! Woo hoo!! - Happy Nowruz
It was a three day affair but I arrived on the second day and a little after the start of the early festivities of the second day but when I arrived - I was so welcomed and there were some fun/funny games, a create your own bloody mary and drink bar and a little spa/pamper area too. It reminded me of the annual birthday getaways I would through for my own little community and chosen family here in the bay - oh how I miss those! It’s events like these that really bring together and really have your love & value shine!
