Auberge Du Soleil Wedding Photography

I got hired to be the wedding photographer for a wedding at the Auberge Du Soleil in Napa Valley.

Napa Valley is stunning enough but when you get the Auberge you are even more stunned as the view from the Balcony is nothing short of incredible.

This wedding was actually from a few years back. I was surprised to find it wasn’t on my blog. I think it got lost in the conversion when I switched servers a couple years ago.

I really enjoyed this bride. She was up for almost anything and instructed me to get as EDGY wedding photography as possible. I like it when a Bride trusts her wedding photographer enough to give him full creative license. Hence shots like below.

The kids DESTROYED the designated ‘kids room’. A wedding should always have a ‘kids room’ especially if the wedding is more lavish and high end and held at a place like the Auberge.

Pictures [among  other things] were falling off the wall.

I actually got a whole host of different styles of wedding photography at this wedding. What I have shown you here barely touches the tip of the ice-berg in terms of what I acheive time and time again, without FAIL on EVERY SHOOT!

I think if you are looking for pictures of a wedding at Auberge Du Soleil than my blog is a great place to start! Here’s a link to some more wedding photos taken at the Auberge Du Soleil Napa Valley.

Special Thanks to all the other wedding vendors that helped make this date a success!

Joel and Sarah Crystal Springs Golf Course wedding photos

This is a wedding I photographed back in 2007. Sarah and Joel at the Crystal Springs Golf Course in Millbrae, CA. The wedding division of the Golf Course is run by Wedgewood Banquet and Event Centers. They operate a handful of wedding venues in and around the San Francisco Bay Area.

They have a really nice facility there for both your wedding ceremony and wedding reception. The ceremony takes place out aways up at a Gazebo as you will see in the pics. The reception is indoors back at the venue. It’s very easy and convenient to go from the ceremony site, to the reception site.

Michelle & Dennis’ Wedding aboard Commodore Cruises & Events

I got some great pics of the San Francisco Bay [amongst a great many other shots] aboard the Commodore Cruise and Event vessel.

I always have a great time when I’m shooting a wedding on a boat. As you can see I excel at getting the landscape shots of San Francisco from the bay.

Wedding at the Outdoor Art Club Mill Valley, CA

There’s a place called the OUTDOOR ART CLUB in a little town called MILL VALLEY, CA. I recently had the pleasure of photographing a wedding there. They had the ceremony in the back, below the huge redwood trees. Cocktails were served on the patio while the luncheon was served in the main room. After lunch they danced on the front patio. For someone looking for a really nice place to have their wedding, the Mill Valley Outdoor Art Club is a top recommendation.

Theresa & Dru’s wedding Embassy Suites Burlingame

I thought I did a pretty good job at this wedding. But you know what? I can always learn something. Being in business for 20 years now, things can get pretty relaxed and sometimes I can get complacent and let my guard down. This is a trap that I try hard to avoid. Being good at anything, I mean anything sometimes makes you feel like you don’t have to prove yourself anymore. I can guarantee that if you hire me to be your wedding photographer, I will go above and beyond the call of duty to prove myself to you and make you happy. Customer service and customer satisfaction is VERY important to me.

Charlotte & Tyler Deer Ridge Vineyards

This is a wedding at the Deer Ridge Vineyards in the Livermore Valley. The sun was really doing a number on my exposures so I had to be extra careful not to blow out the highlights. Fortunately, I shoot in RAW format which gives me some leeway in post to make adjustments.
