Stunning is the only way to describe Tomoko & Sami's wedding we shot in early March. It was an intimate gathering inside the Penthouse suite in San Francisco's Fairmont Hotel. Their wedding was the perfect harmony of two worlds blending together in unison. Tomoko is Japanese and she chose to wear a traditional Pakistani gown for the ceremony. The guests, the music, the food, the decor, it all left me a little speechless. I had a few moments where I forgot I was in San Francisco, because we could have been halfway across the world. The entire time I was there I felt like I was the keeper of a secret, a really beautiful secret...

I felt so incredibly fortunate to have been asked to photograph Harumi & Geno's wedding last Fall on a private estate in Napa Valley. For me, their wedding goes down as one of the most touching and memorable events I've ever had the pleasure of shooting. It's like one of life's special moments that one just can't describe... There was so much emotion hanging in the air. It was a small and intimate affair with just 40 people present, and Geno's tears moved me to tears too!
And last, but not least, the most perfect silhouette of the evening...
