Some things just seem to come together!  I think that portrays both Jackie and James as a couple and the wedding day itself.  The day started with nothing but a gloomy sky with rain showers expected throughout the day.  But neither Jackie nor James seemed to care.  They both knew what this day was really about!  Yet, by some twist of fate, the skies opened up at the perfect time and gave us some great pictures!  I know these two have a lot of happiness ahead of them in their lives.  I’m glad I could be part of their special day.

It is a beautiful thing to see a couple in love.  Mike and Lindsay were so wonderful to be around, you couldn’t help but get swept up in their warmth and kindness.  Despite a cloud filled sky and the chance for rain, it is as if Mother Nature paused for a moment herself, to enjoy a precious occasion.  Hope you enjoy the wedding photography at La Provence in Roseville.

On a rainy day in Sacramento, I entered the Citizen Hotel and made my way up to the ninth floor.  As the elevator door opened, I saw Mike smiling from ear to ear, whispering to Julie as he was hidden behind the door.   He knew his life depended on not looking in that room, but there was no rule about talking to his bride to be. 

Meet Mike and Julie.  This day had been a long time coming, nine years, and all the friends and family made sure to make fun of Mike for that.  But whether it was nine years or nine days, they were both dancing on the clouds like little children.  You could just see the sparkle in their eyes, today was a good day!

It was a pleasure to spend the day with these two gentle souls.  I couldn’t help but get swallowed up with happiness from everyone around.  I hope you enjoy the wedding photography taken at the Citizen Hotel!

Meet Kellee & Michael.   From the first moment I saw them on their wedding day, until the end of the reception, they were lit up light two little lightning bugs!    These two couldn’t have been happier!  I love when couples share my same view of the wedding day…don’t stress the little things.  And you could tell, this day was about the love, the friendships and the laughter. It is a great thing to be around people that are kind, humble and just good people.  As you can see from the wedding photography, it turned out beautifully.

Special recognition must be made for Greg from Elite Entertainment for setting the party off right, there certainly wasn’t a dull moment.  And Jeri and the staff at The River Mill are simply amazing!  Beautiful location, great food, great entertainment…what more could you ask for!  I hope you enjoy the wedding photography at the River Mill.

It is such an amazing thing to see two people so deeply in love.  Every time Lori & Kevin see each other, they turn into two giggly little school children.    You can’t help but get swept away by their happiness and excitement.

Lori & Kevin’s wedding was held at a friend’s home in Roseville, and you couldn’t have asked for a better setting.  A beautiful flowing stream trickling in the background, a lush green canopy softening the afternoon light and hanging lights that added a hint of romance.  It was an intimate, beautiful affair…what more could you have asked for!  Hope you enjoy the Roseville wedding photography.

As I arrive and make my way to the bride’s room, I see the delighted faces of Gina’s mom and sister eagerly awaiting the arrival of all the vendors.  You could feel the excitement in the air!  Making my way into the room, I hear the giggle of bridesmaids and see flashes of pink dresses running about.  Then Gina’s warm smile catches my eye and I couldn’t help but to share her excitement.

Kyle & Gina are just perfect for each other…sweet and fun of life.  The moment I met them, I felt like we were old friends.  I know that they had been eagerly awaiting this moment and their day had finally arrived!

The day started at the beautiful Wine and Roses in Lodi.  As you can see from the images, there is no shortage of great locations for photography opportunities.  The ceremony took place at Morris Chapel at the University of the Pacific in Stockton.  I’ve never had the chance to visit this location before and was amazed by this beautiful historic location.  Also, no shortage of great locations for photos here either!

Hope you enjoy the wedding photography at Wine & Roses and Morris Chapel, University of the Pacific.

Meet Kellee & Michael.   These two were so much fun to hang out with during their engagement session.  They’re a perfect match!  Mike was always cracking a joke and Kellee always with a smile on that would light up a room.  I can’t wait to find out what the wedding has in store!  Hope you enjoy the engagement photography in Old Town Roseville.

You’ve heard the stories about the bridal party getting stuck in an elevator and running late to the wedding.  Well, that is pretty much how this day began!  And if it wasn’t for the wonderful tactics of the Roseville Fire Department, we may well have been late for the wedding!  In the end, we made it out alive J… a bit sweaty and behind schedule but we got some fun pictures and a good story.

Robert and Nicole are such a great match for each other.  Every time they are together, their eyes just light up.  And that emotion was echoed throughout the day.  Their wedding was held at the beautiful Granite Bay Golf Club, and as you can see, we got some wonderful wedding photos.  It was my pleasure to be a part of their special day.  Hope you enjoy the wedding photography!
