Peay Vineyards


In the fall we did a marketing shoot for Peay Vineyards up on the Sonoma Coast in Annapolis. We had photographed Ami & Andy's wedding at the vineyards a couple of years ago.  Their property is amazing and their wine is incredible!  Here's a sampling of images from the shoot - they wanted it to have a family feel so clients would know how much of a family effort it takes for each bottle of wine.

m.o.l. knits collection

Spring 2009




guess what? local san francisco company,  margaret o'leary has a new line: m.o.l knits & we had the lucky opportunity to shoot their spring 2009 collection!   A slightly more hip, urban line that was a perfect fit for our model caitlin..  Here's a sample from their "look book" that we shot recently. caitlin goetz (from look modeling agency) was both the model and the hair & makeup..created and styled by the super talented monique ramos, creative director of margaret o'leary and head knitwear designer Tiila Abitt..  Just another opportunity for us to take advantage of our new studio's natural light- wow, were glad we moved!

New Press!! On Stands Now!!


We love that our photograph is included in the current Modern Bride Magazine: Real Bride, Real Beauty.  This is a shot that we took of Gabriel getting ready at the super cool  St. Regis Hotel in San Francisco.  Gabby is a perfect choice for this article- she's naturally gorgeous ( enhanced by Nam Vo's flawless makeup) & she courageously decided to do her own hair which looked amazing.. Her goal was to combine a natural look with classic red lipstick...always a favorite for Gertrude & Mabel:) & a perfect fit for a black tie Grace Cathedral wedding...

Caitlin & Mark's Wedding

Here's a little snippet of photos from our latest local wedding - it was such a gorgeous black tie affair at City Hall that we thought you might want to see a bit of it... The stunning floral design was by one of our favorite florists, Kathleen Deery, delicious food by Paula LeDuc and another amazing day by Laurie Arons Special Events.  And how beautiful is Caitlin's dress?  She looked fantastic with flawless hair and make-up by Jim Avila & Darlene Carlson.  Caitlin and Mark are such a sweet couple - we are so happy for them and loved being a part of their day!

Welcome to Austin, Texas!





Hey y'all..here's a sneak peek of Alexis and Rey's Texas wedding!  We were so excited to work with the Kelly family again (see her sister Kristin & new baby Vivian in posts below) and to meet the Andrade family - what a fun wedding! It was 90 degrees cool and gorgeous at the Barr Mansion ...complete with a mariachi band, margarita's, wandering wild armadillo's, and check out the oh-so-cool invitations designed by the groom.
