Working with artists on their wedding day is truly one of my favorites. Stephanie & Jeff are in the music and film industry and I was honored that they chose me to film their wedding day. They are naturals in front of the camera and made for an amazing film as you can see if this highlight reel.

Congratulations Stephanie & Jeff!

When Gracelia called me & told me that she was having an intimate wedding and absolutely had to have Super 8mm film as the main way to capture their wedding, I was super excited! She wasn't concerned about photography but wanted a movie picture like she remembered from her childhood. I think their wedding film fits them perfectly.

Graciela & David have very eclectic tastes in music, love just about any & everything, so when I heard this song, I knew I had to use it for them! I also brought along my Holga camera to snap a couple rolls of film for them as well as you can see below....the 2 formats just go hand in hand and they are priceless.

Congratulations Graciela & David! Thank you for allowing me to capture your special day!

Napa is a beautiful area to get married and Super 8mm film captures it perfectly. Joanne & Daniel chose 2 awesome spots for their wedding weekend. They got married at Black Swan Lake and had their rehearsal dinner at Stag's Leap Wine Cellars. The views were breath taking everywhere you looked. Laurie Arons and her amazing team executed another fabulous event! Congratulations!

Nikki & Chad's amazing wedding was published in the recent issue of Inside Weddings...and 12 pages worth!! Below is the Super 8mm highlight reel I posted a few weeks back.

I am terrible at writing, but I just had to write about one of my all time favorite photographers, Michelle Warren.I have done numerous weddings along side her & her team, and each time we do get the opportunity to work together it is always a happy time! She is one of the few photographers out there still using film! Her style and they way she interacts with the couples on the day of their wedding is such a calming yet fun experience. So I was extremely happy when I got the chance to shoot a couple rolls of Super 8mm film of her & Ben with their new son Cash. The film came out better than I imagined, especially with these 3...they are all born naturals! I hope they make this an annual shoot so I can see little Cash grow up :)

P.S. I also shot some HD video of them too...you can see it by clicking HERE.
