I love referral weddings!!! It’s like a guarantee that the bride and groom are going to be fabulous, and the wedding will be tons of fun! Lesley & Needham’s wedding, referred by Alisa & Jonathan, was no exception! These two are so much fun, and their wedding was full of laughter, smiles, good food, beautiful details and a gorgeous setting.

The Brazilian Room in Tilden Park is so fun to shoot at, with the stunning natural beauty of Tilden Park’s vistas and cozy, welcoming wood & stone Brazilian Room with floor to ceiling windows that beautifully frame the trees and garden. And I loved all the vibrant pinks and soft greens that Lesley & Needham highlighted in their decor. Visually, the wedding had just the right amount of popping contrast and soft natural hues of the lush trees and wood lodge setting.

Here are some favorite images from the day!

I was joined that day by the wonderful Cara Gardner & Cindy Chen for my photog team, and they both captured some gorgeous images!  Other wonderful vendors included Katherine of Culinary Excellence, Catering & Event/Floral Design, and the very fun band Larry Lynch & the Mob.  What an awesome day!

Lesley & Needham, thank you for inviting Cara, Cindy & I to capture your beautiful wedding day.  And thank you Alisa & Jonathan for the referral and for having such fabulous friends!!!

Alisa & Jonathan wanted to shoot their engagement session in Berkeley, and we decided to meet at the Brazilian Room at beautiful Tilden Park. The light was in that perfect dreamy state and everything was lush and warmed by soft sun rays. We couldn’t have had a more beautiful spot to photograph.

Lush….

Dreamy…

Soft sun…

And the sweetest patch of baby daisy grass field (okay, I’m not sure if that’s what those little white flowers are called, but they should be!)


I had just seen Alisa & Jonathan at Jonathan’s sister’s wedding that weekend (Elizabeth & Nick’s wedding slideshow will be up soon too!), and it was like seeing old friends. I feel so lucky to have had a chance to work with both of these couples and their families. Isn’t it true that quality people always spend time with other quality people?

Alisa & Jonathan are getting married at V. Sattui Winery in St. Helena on June 30th, 2007. I’m so looking forward to photographing their beautiful day!
