It was a pleasure working with Thomas and Ailey from Flick’n Roll, check out their beautiful cinematography for Tina and Danny’s wedding here.

First up, some wedding details including the wedding rings – the symbol of marriage – I just can’t not post one! And the beautiful calla lily bride’s bouquet by Lynh’s Florist.

Before heading to the wedding ceremony, we grabbed some photos at the Cypress Hotel in Cupertino.

Then it was off to Hakone Gardens in Saratoga for some more wedding portraits before the ceremony started.

Being announced in as Mr. and Mrs. for the first time …. !!!

Nat & Eric ~ I’m so happy for you both and congrats! I’m also so glad you guys could make it out to California, and thanks for being super trooppers (especially Nat)… walking all the way out to the end of Baker Beach, plus trekking it all the way up to the windy top of Fort Point for these photos!

Love this photo! But I should also be honest and admit I was shaking and holding my breathe while Jay was taking this … standing on thin ledges beyond the railings with absolutely nothing in front of below him for way too many feet. (Clearly, he doesn’t have a fear of heights and I do … just looking down! =P)

We started off the day at the ultra modern Hotel Vitale in San Francisco. Sharon had a gorgeous corner suite overlooking the Embarcadero.

Absolutely LOVE the bouquets that Spiral Hand Designs created … gorgeous calla lily bouquet with feathers for the bride and a perfect bundle of tulips for the matrons of honor.

They thought of every last detail, including a special color for their baby, Casey!

And here’s the gorgeous bride all made up and ready to go! (Did I say I love the feathers accompanying the calla lilies already?!?!)

Sharon ~ if we didn’t tell you this enough times on your wedding day, you were an absolutely stunning bride!It might the wedding day, but these guys had tons of fun along the way too…

Then it was into the limo … and off to take pictures around town.

Pier 5 …

Fort Point …

And yes, it was freezing up at the top of Fort Point … but we had perfect blue skies and 100% view of the Golden Gate Bridge. (Thanks for being troopers in the cold cold wind up there!)

Then it was back to the James Leary Flood Mansion for the wedding ceremony.

I love how the wedding place cards by olio style were incorporated into the bamboo pond arrangement designed by Spiral Hand Designs! 

The combination of metallic pewter textured linens with black chivari chairs really makes the room pop!

And we can’t forget the gorgeous cake by The Cake Maker! 

And yummy yummy food and desserts catered by Betty Zlatchin Catering.

Sharon and Kei ~ Thanks again for inviting us to capture your special day. It was our honor to be present to capture the day as it unfolded. Congrats on a beautiful wedding and all the best to the both of you!
