A couple of weekends ago we shot an awesome wedding at The Bridges Golf Club in San Ramon. Natasha and I were looking forward to working at this venue for some time as we have another wedding there next year.
Anjie and Amit are a very sweet couple who’ve known each other for over 10 years now and it was our honor to photograph this event. Many of the guests wore traditional Indian dresses and the excitement of the day could be felt from the time we first arrived. Natasha and I separated to capture the preparations as Anjie and Amit decided to not see each other prior to the ceremony.
Here we were having fun with a spontaneous jump by Amit and the guys:
The day was full of amazing details including red roses and petals which were just everywhere from the bride’s bouquet to the ceremony isle:
Vows were exchanged during an emotion-filled outdoor ceremony right before sunset. As difficult as it was to be shooting directly into the sun, it was impossible to not notice the beauty of the moment.
The reception was also held at The Bridges and included many toasts as well as a surprise coordinated dance by the entire bridal party. This really got the dancing started and it was impossible to keep people away after it.
Congratulations to our friends, Anjie and Amit! We’re very happy for you :)

Our friends’ Anya and Ilya’s exciting wedding took place at the gorgeous Chateau La Joye in Half Moon Bay. This couple had one of the most original spots for their engagement session in the junkyards of East Palo Alto not long ago, and their wedding day was also nothing short of amazing.
We got pretty lucky with the warm weather as it’s often chilly around these parts. The couple decided not to see each other prior to ceremony and the processional was truly a beautiful moment in time. There were four special people holding the Chuppah for the duration of the ceremony and the emotions ranged from laughter to deeper and more sentimental ones.
The reception was held at the same beautiful venue at an outdoor tent which provided a great ambiance throughout the night. There was a desert buffet, dancing, a singing performance and much fun into the night.
At the end of the night Anya and Ilya got a very special gift from their friends.
Congratulations you guys! We were thrilled to be a part of your day.
Mike and Natasha

The wedding of Julie and Erik took place among friends and relatives in the beautiful lush hills of the Pulgas Water Temple in Redwood City. Their guests had come from near and far with a few people actually driving across the country for this event!
The processional included a baby being pulled in a car-like stroller which made everyone smile and laugh.
Following the ceremony we had a chance to take photos next to a real classic car – Julie’s dad’s Ford.
The entertainment at the reception was elegantly provided by Mike Ewing. There were toasts and memories shared throughout the night!
Julie and Erik were a referral from our past clients Leah and Matt and we’re very thankful for getting to know this awesome couple.
