A rabbi walks into a bar and a guy starts talking to her. He smiles, she smiles and they start something very special. This is the true story of how Sarah and Eric met! We are honored be there to document their wedding at the CuriOdyssey Museum in San Mateo. This is our first timing shooting at this unique location!
Sarah has a beaming smile that just brightens the room and Eric has a quirky sense of humor that makes them so cute together.
The biggest treat was definitely the wedding shtick where their friends and family did several amazing performances. Whether it was reciting poems, choreographed dancing, playing games, acting, macgic show, stand up comedy, or doing “All the Single Ladies” better than Justin Timberlake in SNL, the group of talent among their friends was so amazing! This brought so much joy and laughter that made this wedding so fun and special.
Here are some of our favorite pictures to share. Please enjoy!
Much love,
Tammy, Mark and little Maddy

Ramekins, Sonoma Wedding | Nichole & Paul
Dec. 1 2012
posted in Wedding
At the unique and beautiful Ramekins Culinary Institute in Sonoma, Nichole and Paul exchanged promises to love and cherish. Their amazing friends and family from near and far were determined to be here for the celebration. Paul’s family drove half way across the country to stay ahead of Hurricane Sandy and caught their flight in Ohio. Other guests flew in from Hong Kong, England, Canada and all over US. Over and over again, we felt so much of the love and support for Nichole and Paul that made us melt.
Nichole and Paul’s love story started from chemistry.com and blossomed into something extremely special over the next two years. We got to know them better during the engagement session and this time documenting their wedding felt like watching our friends getting married. The ceremony and reception was sweet and filled with personal touches. Nichole is super creative and we are in awe of all the paper works she designed for the wedding. The night turned into some crazy dancing, including Nichole and her dad doing Gangnam style and everyone doing the train, and ended with a sparkly send off for the newly weds. What a night!
P & N – Thank you so much for allowing us to be part of your love story. We hope Fiji is awesome and wish you a lifetime of happiness together.
Much love,
Tammy, Mark and little Maddy

Oceano Hotel, Half Moon Bay Wedding | Sarah & Brandon
Sep. 26 2012
posted in Wedding
Sarah and Brandon got married at the beautiful Oceano Hotel in Half Moon Bay, just across the street from where they had their first date. Their ceremony was very emotional, and the amount of love and support surrounding these two was just amazing.
Sarah and Brandon met at a bar, only to find out they live on the same street in Redwood city! It is funny how fate sometimes works like this. When the time is right, the two that are destined to be married finally cross paths. The rest is history – Brandon charmed her with his good looks and Sarah captured his heart with her beautiful smile. Soon they knew they found their soul mate.
We are so honored to be documenting this special day. It was also so nice to see our past bride and groom Marissa and Tim at the reception!
Sarah & Brandon – Hope Belize is tons of fun! Thank you for having us there and we wish you a lifetime of love and joy together.
Much love,
Tammy, Mark and little Madison
