When I met with Denise and her wonderful wedding planner/bridesmaid Michaela to talk about Denise and Matt’s upcoming wedding, they told me that the focus would be on family. I met Matt and Denise’s sons Ryan and Colin during the engagement shoot, as well as Denise’s mom–they all proved to be as charming as the bride and groom themselves. September 18, 2010 was an exciting day at the Sausalito Women’s Club with their family and friends, who were so warm and welcoming, and truly a joy to photograph!

Beautiful couple, beautiful day in Calistoga, at Hans Fahden Vineyards, May 15, 2010. Jenn and Brian’s wedding was full of DIY goodness, like the photo wall adorned with old family photos and the giant Jenga set they finished during our engagement shoot! I have no doubt they will build a marriage as strong and fantastic as the projects they put together, together.

Getting my gear together to shoot Brian and Jenn’s wedding. They are an adorable couple, as you can tell, and if their homemade giant Jenga set and power tool engagement session is any indication, this wedding should be a blast.

You SAW it here first, folks!
