San Francisco Enagament Photos- Dana & Ben

Engagement sessions are my absolute favorite wedding gift to give my good friends, and Dana is is one of my closest friends.  It was so fun photographing her and Ben, they laugh a lot and are absolutely crazy about each other.

Dana & Ben have gone to school together since grade school, but never dated until almost 10 years after high school. We all knew Ben, and I'm surprised that no one saw it before and thought to hook them up because when you see them together, you realize they are absolutely perfect for each other.  Congrats you two, so happy you found each other again and can't wait to be a bridesmaid in your wedding!

This is Ben's get out of jail free card. It's called the goat (there is a noise involved) and this is what happens to Dana every time he does it:

On another note...I'm stuck in jury duty for the next week, apologies if it takes me a while to get back to anyone!

Scottish Sonoma Wedding - Amy & Jack

Amy & Jack were married at the Ramekin Culinary School and Inn in Sonoma. For those of you that haven't seen it, it's amazing and I recommend checking it out! There are A LOT of photos, so I'll just let those speak for themselves (plus a caption here and there). Congrats Amy & Jack, I had a blast at your wedding!!

They definitely win the award for cutest kids at a wedding. And their matching converse and bow ties....so adorable.

I loved, loved their flowers! Fabulous work from Absolutely Wild Flowers

This guy saw Amy & Jack, and promptly picked Jack up for a quick ride around the block. He was wearing fleece pajamas decorated with skulls, and his name was Danger. Seriously.

Some of the best speeches I've ever heard. Funny at first, and then brought everyone to tears. Literally, everyone. I had just met the speech givers and I had to pretend "I had something in my eye."
