Sonoma Wedding: Kati & Jason

Kati & Jason's wedding took place in September in Sonoma. It was a HOT day, but a whole lot of fun. They had a big wedding party, and lots of adorable kids in attendance, which always makes for some fun pictures.



I loved her hair! She had a braid on the side and real flowers.







The ceremony took place on a grassy area in front of the vineyards, and between two barns. Denmark Street Vineyards is a beautiful location for any brides looking for outdoor, rustic wedding venues.








Ohhh, the orange glasses. Jason LOVED the orange glasses. I say loved, because seconds after this picture, Kati grabbed them off his face and they accidentally snapped in half. It was quite a sad moment for him!



How cute is the little ring bearer in front?!
He posed like superman all on his own.



A barn with moss growing on it, a vineyard with great lighting...I really couldn't ask for better backgrounds for portraits














They had ice cream AND cake. I've seen ice cream in leu of cake, but never both. It was pretty great for those of us who have a big sweet tooth. The kids loved it as well!











I don't remember the song that was playing at this moment, but if I had to guess by the dancing, I would say it was probably "Get Low" by Lil Jon. Anyone else have any guesses?!


My assistant, Betsy, took this picture. I love how the people dancing in the barn are a big blur.




That's the grooms mom in the middle of all the groomsmen!

The groomsmen made Betsy and I put our cameras down and come dance with them for a song. One of them snapped a picture at the end, that's me on the right in the front, and Betsy in the middle back.

Kati & Jason

On Saturday I photographed Kati & Jason's wedding at Denmark St. Vineyards in Sonoma. I'm still going through their wedding photos, and giggling a lot while I do. Jason is fan of sneaking into the picture a pair of light up bright orange sunglasses. He also likes to dance dirty with the older ladies. Oh just wait until you see the wedding photos.......

They are a pretty awesome couple. Jason is a total goof ball, and Kati is super laid back, and just goes with the flow even when so many things happened to go wrong in the wedding planning process! For example, during the engagement session, Jason picked her up and swung her around, and her ring flew off her hand and landed 1 story below us at Fort Point. It took about 10 minutes of searching to find it, and when we did a few of the diamonds were missing. Kati just kind of giggled and mentioned something about being lucky that it was insured!










For the record, these next two photos were Jason's idea. Which makes them sooo much better!







Congrats Kati and Jason! Check back in a week or two to see their wedding photos!
