A couple of weeks ago we had a great photo shoot with Claudia. I like maternity sessions because pregnancy is a very important time in the life of a woman and her family and I love documenting this life changing event.

Claudia and her husband Jeffrey are expecting twins very soon now. Mike and I really enjoyed our time with them! It’s going to be great to continue to work with Claudia to create photographs of the newborns throughout their first year.

Here are a few of my favorites:

We always joke that we never know when we might meet a new client. Sometime this winter Mozhenna recognized Mike while we happened to be leaving a restaurant. They know each other from college but haven’t seen each other since. When Mike told Mozhenna that he’s a wedding photographer, she said that she actually recently got engaged and introduced us to Sergey.

On the Saturday of the wedding we met Mozhenna at her parents’ place as she was getting ready. We came just in time to see Mozhenna putting on her gorgeous wedding dress and the final touches of makeup. She was not the least bit worried and didn’t stop glowing or smiling the entire day.

Sergey was preparing as well:

This couple allowed lots of time for everything in order to have a happy and stress-free day. We were really happy about it because the extra time really allowed us to get creative. Sergey and Mozhenna were up for almost anything…

One cute moment was when we were at the Arboretum in Golden Gate park and a little girl just froze as she pointed at Mozhenna and announced: “Look mommy, it’s a Princess!”

The ceremony and reception were both held at Russia House where Mozhenna’s brother Misha was also wed 13 years ago. There was an abundance of pastries and fruits and the desert table was topped with a surprise for the newlyweds: a heart-shaped ice sculpture with Mozhenna and Sergey’s names written on it.

We met up with Sveta and Slava at a cool part of North Beach for their engagement photos. Natasha was in Israel when I first met them and now the four of us really got a chance to get to know each other.

We spent some time walking around the neighborhood checking out the great alleys and sights. Sveta and Slava’s wedding is coming up soon and we’re very excited for them.
