Married: Juan & Shelby Fresno Luxury Wedding Photography

Juan and Shelby have done it...yep, they tied the knot...and did it in style. They had an amazing wedding at Shelby's parents Italian villa inspired residence. The back yard was initially set up for the ceremony, then once the ceremony concluded, all of the guests moved to the courtyard in the front of the house for hand passed appetizers and to enjoy a mariachi band. While this was going on the back yard was being transformed into an amazing reception area much like that of a fine dining restaurant. Another one of the coolest things I'd seen in a while was the flowers on the cake were exact replicas of those on Shelby's dress. It's this kind of attention to detail that makes my "job" so much fun. Once again, and it seems I say this for every client, I am so fortunate to be able to work with families such as Juan and Shelby's. Thank you for allowing me to capture your wedding memories that I hope you will cherish for a lifetime.

Married: Garrett & Lyndi- Wolf Lakes Wedding, Sanger

Up next is Garrett and Lyndi. Woot! This wedding came to me from photographing Garrett's brother's Senior pictures not too many years ago. I've also done some portraits for Garrett's family as well. I love it when families continue to come to me to capture their important family memoriess. LOVE it!

Anywhoooo, Garrett and Lyndi's wedding was held on a Friday afternoon at the beautiful Wolf Lakes in Sanger, CA. The weather couldn't have been better and everything went off without a hitch. Check below for some of my favorites from the day.

I know I've mentioned it before but a big THANK YOU once again to Garrett and Lyndi and their families for having me play such an important role in capturing those precious memories.

Halloween 2009 @ the Ellises

Jen and I decided again this year to have a little Halloween get together with friends, family, and neighbors and it was FUN, FUN, FUN. I ended up settin' up the camera, lights, and backdrop and takin' pictures of everyone. I'm not sure the sugar has even worn off yet as the kids are up early and still bouncin' off the walls but in the meantime see some of my faves below. If you wanna see some more Halloween goodness from our shindig just go here.
