It’s that time of year again kids! Time for me to share all the weirdo pictures we take of each other while we are working. There are A LOT this year… like too many to share. But this is from 30 weddings and engagement sessions and commercial shoots and family portraits and holy moly we took a lot of pictures this year. Not only that, but we’ve got to work with so many awesome couples and so many amazing vendors. We had such a great year, and feel so grateful to do what we love with people who rock!
Testing photo booths has become a goldmine of shoot out photos.
As always, we want to thank all the awesome people we have been so blessed to work with. While I wasn’t carrying a baby around in my belly this year we still had a great time with our friends. Thanks to my beloved bestie Bethie B for shooting a wedding with me, the fabulous glamazons LeiLani and Renee of Hello Glam for making so many of my brides so very pretty, the incredible Shannon of Flourish for making so many wedding so darn pretty, and the awesome team of Kate Miller Events for making my job so damn fun! We love you guys and can’t wait to work with you lots more in 2012.
We also had the joy of spending a few days with our lovely Tammy Swales while she was in Califoria this fall. She was a peach and came and hung out with us while we worked a photo booth – and dang that girl is fun.
And of course we have to show some love to Francisco for rockin’ our Sacramento photo booths and being a great assistant.
Thanks to all of our awesome clients for having us be a part of your weddings, portraits and projects. We so enjoyed this year, and look forward with much anticipation to 2012! Check out our SLIDESHOW HERE or below for more from one fabulous year!
Clarissa and Brian are SO awesome, and of course their wedding was just fantastic. They had their big day at the fabulous Library Galleria in downtown Sacramento. Everything was beautiful, especially our lovely bride Clarissa. It was awesome.
Brian and his fellas got ready down the street at my favorite place ever, The Citizen Hotel. Dustin always such a great job with the boys. I love going through his pictures! They always look like such fun.
Clarissa and Brian had a beautiful ceremony with not one, but TWO pastors! I kind of love it when their are two pastors… I’m not sure why, but it just seems even better. Double the awesome of a ceremony. And this one was pretty awesome, full of lots of awesome love from a very awesome couple!
How cute are they? I love them! And I really love this next shot Dustin got. How cute is Clarissa showing off her new wedding ring?
Then it was party time! And party they did! The best part of the LibGal is it’s big ol’ dance floor. These crazy kids and their awesome family and friends sure put that space to good use. It was incredible! And yes, Brian worked the Michael Jackson dance entrance. It was so cool! I was very impressed.
THANK YOU Clarissa and Brian for being so wonderful, and for trusting us and for being just so much fun. Your wedding was incredible! YOU are incredible! Thank you for having us be a part of your wedding. We loved every second. Check out their SLIDESHOW HERE or below for more of their fantastic day!
Here it is! SMP’s final wedding of 2010! And, what a wedding it was! Jen and Eric put on an incredible party at our favorite place for weddings in Sacramento – the ever fabulous Citizen Hotel. This wedding was just one awesome thing after another. Jen and Eric are two extremely wonderful people, and it was wonderful to be a part of their big day. The love they have for each other is so deep, and so very comfortable. It made everything about their wedding so easy. It was such a great way to close up a really great year. And let’s be real – late December light is TO. DIE. FOR. Seriously – the balcony shots I’m going to show you… I want to BUILD A LIFE with them. I want to get 8×10′s printed and just hand them to strangers on the street so they too can understand how pretty everything about this day was. So, I’ll be quiet now and show you some pictures of this fabulous wedding!
Brace yourself for this next one… Jennifer is SUCH a stunning bride! And when you have a bride this damn pretty, and then you get light that is like the most amazing light I’ve ever seen in my life… well… I am just so freaking happy I got to be up on this balcony.
Jen had all her besties come up to the Governor’s Suite before the ceremony to share a glass of champagne with her. I thought it was so awesome that she surrounded herself with those who she loves so much at such a special moment.
And then we had one quick moment as the sun set and the clouds were crazy awesome to grab this shot before going downstairs to the ballroom and getting these two hitched. And, oh man! I’m so glad we had this moment!
Then it was off to the reception! And because we’d gotten all the portraits and family pictures done prior to the ceremony, Jen and Eric got to go straight to their party! Now, you all know that I LOVE the Citizen Hotel, but they keep doing things to make me LOVE THEM MORE! Jen and Eric’s wedding was the first wedding there with the fabulous new windows on the 7th floor terrace room. I LOVE THE WINDOWS! They are awesome, and they make such a huge difference! They skyline is just that much more amazing now! Thanks Citizen Hotel! You make every wedding AMAZING!
A couple other things I LOVED about this wedding were the fact that Jen and Eric made it so THEM! Instead of a big ol’ cake, they had that cute little one up there and then had an ice cream sundae station! Awesome! And they did my most favorite thing for a wedding – they had a live band. They rocked out with The Hits and honestly, if you’re thinking about having a band at your wedding you totally should! And The Hit’s were AMAZING! The dance floor was never empty all night!
Jen and Eric thank you SO much for having us be a part of your OUTSTANDING wedding! We loved ending our 2010 season on such a high note. You two are just the best! Check out more of their wonderful wedding in their SLIDESHOW HERE or below!
