Brett & Chano... Angels Camp

On June 7, 2008... getting back to this year... I went over to Angels Camp California to shoot the most beautiful wedding! (Do I say that every time?) Hosted in  private home on  a vineyard Brett and Chano's wedding was both classy and really homey and inviting.  I had so much fun shooting that day, there were so many great little details to play around with and everyone was in such good spirits and looked beautiful.  We did get some fun family shots with, yes, rifles... which you just don't see very often- but its always so much fun to get the little extras that really personalize the day...  

News...

Last year, on September 15, 2007 Jo & Lallo were married at Lavender Hill, and I had the pleasure of photographing their wedding day... The fabulous Alison Hotchkiss of Alison Events was the master mind behind this beautiful day... Not to mention the impeccable tastes of the grooms... Easily the most emotional wedding I have ever had the honor of being a part of... It also brought me "fame"

 ;)  I submitted this image to PDN for the Top Knots of Wedding Photography contest and won a place in the Portraiture section...

Furthermore, in an interview with Alison on CBS news, several photos from this event were featured in a segment on the recent legalization of gay marriage in California... (Yay!)  So I thought I'd share the winning image with y'all, as well as a few more of my favorites from that day...
