We are hopping back in time a bit to fall 2016, as I’m feeling nostalgic for this beautiful setting. Chileno Valley Ranch, nestled in the hills west of Petaluma, CA is a one of my favorite wedding spots. I was delighted to photograph the marriage of two very lovely people (Hi Jasper and Elaine!) at Chileno Valley. I am usually there in the spring, so it was an extra treat to be at Chileno during the apple harvest season. People were grabbing apples off the trees and chomping away! It threatened to rain but never did -just gave a rich light to the scene, helping the colors pop…

Huge thank as always to Kara Brodgesell for shooting with me.

Haha, friends couldn’t help but sneak a peak at their first look:

Worried about the rain…

I loved this quiet moment Elaine and Jasper took before the wedding…

Everyone loves a guitar-playing Rabbi!

Thank you Kara for running up to the second floor for this shot!
