A perfect match and they were such a joy to photograph. They enjoyed every aspect of their day from start to finish. Congrats you two have a wonderful like together. Here is to another beautiful wedding at Nestldown.

Love this moment at the toast

I am so excited for Jeremy and Ruth’s wedding in September. They are going up and over the top for their special day in Monterey. We had a wonderful engagement session in Santa Cruz. So although you will have to wait for their wedding here is a sneak peak. Jeremy even drove his motorcycle down from Sacramento for this shoot.

There were so many amazing photos from this shoot I don’t know where to begin.

Ruth you are beautiful

Remember when I mentioned the motorcycle. Check out this hot bike.

Today I am so excited to share with you pictures from my own wedding. One month ago I got to walk down the aisle to my best friend Jeff. We felt so blessed to be surrounded my such loving friends and family. Our day was beautiful and so much fun. It went by in a flash. The best part is that now I get to spend the rest of my life with the person I love most. A special thanks to Celeste for capturing these amazing pictures on our special day.

Shawn Cavlan did an amazing job on my hair and make-up, plus she was so much fun to work with.

Jeff, he is so handsome

A necklace that my mom made for my wedding.

Gummy worms, my favorite candy. Jeff made sure that I had a bag with me the night before the wedding. He always takes care of me

My dad walking me down the aisle. I love this pic.

The anticipation. Even though Jeff saw me before the ceremony there were still some tears. I love him.

We had a beautiful ceremony and one of my best friends Pastor Todd led it for us along with a song.

One of my favorite parts during the ceremony. When the pastor asked Jeff if would take me as his wife. Instead of saying I do he yelled, yessssss. It made everyone laugh.

Our decor was simple and elegant. Seascape flowers did the arrangements and they were amazing. We didn’t really have colors so we had a lot of natural earthtones. Our napkins were brought over from my aunt from Thailand. Every napkin was different.

The toasts

I love this moment

The first dance

A little surprise for us at the end.

A note our neices and nephews gave us at the kid table.

Barn, fields and oak trees. I love to photograph in nature. David and Cathy were such troopers to follow me up and down the trails and through the weeds to get these pictures. I am learning new locations in San Jose. Its so fun to go on adventures. It brings me back to when I was a kid and I used to explore the fields and land around my house.We had a great time. Check out a few of the pictures we created in our adventure.

I had the joy of photographing Brian and Emily’s Wedding just 5 days after my own. It was such a fun experience to photograph a wedding after just experiencing it from the other side. Brian and Emily had a wonderful wedding at Nestldown, every detail was given thought out so beautiful. A special thanks to Kristin and Orbie for helping me out.
