We met up with Christina and Von for their engagement pics at the Dutch Windmill in Golden Gate Park in San Francisco. We absolutely love the trees along the walking paths near that end of the park, so we took a little stroll and did some cute pics with those as well. Then we headed across the street to the beach for some pics in the gorgeous light coming off the water.

SHARETWEETPINEMAILJessica and Joe Bob’s wedding took place at Thomas George Estates located just outside of Healdsburg, CA. The rolling hills and gorgeous setting of the valley surrounding Thomas George make for absolutely beautiful scenery for wedding pics!
We started off the day with Jessica getting her hair and makeup done at the Wash & Brushup Co in Healdsburg.
Jessica had the cutest little tags for her something old, something new, something borrowed, and something blue!
Jessica and Joe Bob made welcome boxes for their guests that had yummy food and tour maps of the wineries in the area.
This bridge is just down the road from Thomas George, and we are completely in love with it! The bridge looks empty, but there were cars coming through every 15 to 30 seconds so we had to be super quick with every shot!
Jessica and Joe Bob’s ceremony took place on a hill overlooking the valley behind the winery, and the view was amazing!
The custom fans below were such fun idea for the guests to use at the ceremony!
Since they were having a smaller number of wedding guests, Jessica and Joe Bob chose to set up the ceremony seating in a spiral pattern where they could stand in the middle of all of their guests.
The pictures that Jessica and Joe Bob are holding below are from their parents’ weddings.
Their reception took place in the wine cave next to Thomas George’s tasting room.
The lighting in the wine cave is so romantic!
The dinner seating for the guests was set up at one long farm table going through one of the main corridors of the wine cave.

SHARETWEETPINEMAILJamie and Tyler’s wedding took place at the gorgeous River Ranch Lodge in Tahoe City, CA. The lodge is located right on the Truckee River, and is surrounded by the most beautiful mountains and trees, making for an absolutely fantastic setting for a wedding!
We loved the succulents that Jamie and Tyler used for the guys’ boutonnieres!
In addition to her own, Jamie got an adorable custom hanger for her flower girl’s dress, too.
We did Jamie and Tyler’s first look on the deck outside of their room at the lodge.
These pictures were all shot right on the little walking trail that goes along the river next to the lodge. We absolutely loved all the trees and pine needles everywhere along there, and the light was perfect!
The Truckee River was so low, that Jamie and Tyler are actually standing in the river bed in the shot below! The people at the lodge said that the river almost never looks like this, so we were super excited to get some really unique shots!
The guest table at the reception had a little tree and picture cards for the guests to write messages for Jamie and Tyler.
You can never go wrong with Baby’s Breath and burlap! We loved how Jamie and Tyler combined them with with pine cones and mason jars to make the centerpieces for their tables.
The place cards for the guests to find their tables were painted rocks with the table number on the back.
Possibly the best late night wedding snack we’ve ever seen, Jamie and Tyler had churros made for their guests!

We found this barrel room around the back of one of the buildings at Wente, and it made for the most gorgeous silhouette shots!
We started off the day with Paulina getting her hair and makeup done at the house that Paulina’s family rented near Wente.
We love Wente’s Mediterranean-style architecture! All the wooden doors and shutters make a fantastic backdrop for pics!
We loved the way that the beige and turquoise of the wedding party’s outfits went with the wood and plaster buildings at the winery.
Paulina and Eddie put together a super cute book with pictures showing all the stages of their relationship.
Wente let us use golf carts to get around the property for pics, so of course we had to do a picture of Paulina and Eddie driving one!
This oak tree on the hill above the vineyard was such a perfect place to do sunset pics!
The favors for the guests were the most adorable little glass jars of jelly beans!
