Wedding formal from San Francisco City Hall. A patch of sun makes all the difference.

Oct 172013

I shot a lot of wedding ceremonies in San Francisco City hall. It is gorgeous. It is a good place to elope. If you want to get married at San Francisco City Hall it only cost an extra $77. There is nowhere you can find a venue so pretty for so little.

The couple in this photo flew up from LA. After the ceremony I took them around the city to get a few more shots. You have to get Golden Gate Bridge for example. I love a lot of the photos from the day, but this one is my favorite. It was a sunny day in San Francisco. (weird, right? no fog) and a patch of sun on the stairs changed everything.

Shot a wedding last Friday at the Brazil Room in Tilden Park, Berkeley.

I’m just getting started with the editing, but this one caught my eye. The bride and her father are about to step out into the lawn for the ceremony. The very moment between one thing ending and another beginning, and they could not look more happy.

Today I was cruising around my Facebook page and I saw one of my photos show up on Cheryl’s Facebook page. She was posting it to celebrate her 8 year wedding anniversary. As a little anniversary present, I posted my favorite shots from her wedding on Facebook, but there is no reason not to put them here too.

Cheryl an Dan got married in Pacific Grove California at the Asilomar Conference Center. They got married on the beach, and had the reception at the center.

Romantic shot of bride and groom at the Palace of Fine Arts in San Francisco

Rachel and Brandon got married in the Presidio in San Francisco. After the wedding we did family portraits in the chapel, sent everyone on their way, and took the wedding party to the Palace of Fine Arts in San Francisco. If you haven’t been, the Palace is dreamy and romantic. I took almost 200 shots of the bride and groom there. This is one of the clear winners. I was using my 50mm 1.4 lens at about 2.8, so I was able to get a nice shallow depth of field to make the shot even more romantic.

This is the shot that went straight up to their Facebook pages, so I know they love it too!

Here is a shot of a fantastic and adorable little flower girl resting on her daddy after the excitement of the wedding ceremony and all of the formal pictures.

The photo was taken at Pacific Oaks Vineyard Estate in Aptos California.

There are no hard and fast rules in weddings, but 6 is a great age for flower girls. Old enough to follow directions, young enough to be so excited.
