We are thrilled to be featured in the June issue of Destination Weddings and Honeymoons magazine, currently out in the newsstands! This magazine is always full of the most beautiful destination weddings and we are thrilled to see Ksenia and Vladimir’s Hawaii wedding featured this month!

Ksenia and Vladimir’s wedding took place on the beautiful island of Oahu and you can view more of their wedding photos in their blog post from September.

As promised, here are some more pictures from a fabulous engagement session we had in Lake Tahoe a couple of weeks ago. We’ve been coming up to Tahoe quite a few times this winter and every time I’d look at all the beautiful snow and tell Mike how I wish we’d shoot here. And then at some point we thought it might be a neat idea to let people know that we’d love to do a session in Tahoe and we put it on our blog.

Well, what do you know? I got an immediate reply! Can I say once again that we absolutely love our crazy adventurous couples? It was sooo much fun! We spent the day running in the snow, throwing snowballs, jumping, getting our feet wet in a frozen pool, and we finished it off by making some snow angels :)

Vika and Igor are having a destination wedding in Mexico this summer and we are super excited to be with them on their wedding day!

Thanks for a great time in Lake Tahoe, Vika and Igor! Happy a great week, everyone!

To continue with the “Best of Choco 2009″ series we are posting our favorite details shots. We absolutely love shooting details! Dresses, ties, rings, flowers, all kinds of decor and every tiny detail – we know how much time and energy goes to planning them out. Beautiful details make the wedding day special and personal, really showing off the personalities of our brides and grooms.

Here are some of our favorites from last year:

The Bently Reserve had decor and lighting that simply WOW’ed us at Stephanie and Jamie’s wedding:

Can you make out what these cuff-links say? :)

This unique cake was designed by a proud groom (and there’s a race car for a topper!)

Leela and Jeff’s wedding at the Cornerstone Gardens in Sonoma was so beautiful:

We always love doing something special with the rings whenever time allows:
