Their wedding was epic. All the regular adjectives (beautiful, gorgeous, emotional, exciting… etc.) apply with fervor. But here they apply in a different sort of way. Barb and Don have been through the ups and downs of life in a way few couples who are just getting married have. And on their wedding day, as...
I have been looking forward to Cristin & Luke’s wedding ever since we had a blast hanging out for the afternoon in San Francisco during their engagement session. Marin is full of quaint rustic locations for a wedding, and the San Francisco Theological Seminary was beautiful. The chapel itself looks like something straight out of...

Rather than wax eloquent here at the start, I’d like to share the images...
I really can’t get enough of the fact that my wife and I live smack-dab in the middle of wine country. With Santa Cruz & Monterey to the South, and Napa, Sonoma, and the Russian River to the North, their is an endless supply of fantastic wine. Very rarely do I find myself drinking wine...
