useless trivia

I often ask myself what are common patterns with my clients of 2011. Do I have more than one bride with the same name? yes, and how about grooms? yes there too. I did a useless trivia last year, and figure these little things I think about should be shared, so here you have it. There are four women who's names begin with the letter S's, three T's, three C's, one B, one V, one D, and one N. There was a HEAVY purple patter at the start of last year and it ended with a mango, peach, citrus theme. This year I don't see a common thread at all color wise, there is a WIDE variety, and that my friends makes for a more colorful fun world for me. Well I'm sure not the most exciting thing to read, but as the year goes on sharing these weddings and many more will be MUCh more fun.

Coastal Farm Style Shoot

A mere THIRTY days exactly has gone by, and I've thought about this shoot many many times. I'm so excited to finally get to share it with you all. The end results are Stunning if I don't say so myself. What an honor to be a part  of such a talented group of wedding professionals. The sweet and talented Emily Read Bentley coordinated the complete shoot.  The LONG day was photographed by the amazingly talented Jennifer Turner. We had the honor of using amazing pieces of furniture from Mignonne Decor. The day was nearly perfect, on the coast just north of Santa Cruz at Green Oaks Farm & Retreat. Perfect escort cards provided by Twig & Fig, calligraphy perfection by Georgia Deaver,  and Hair & Make Up L'Atellier Salon. Lastly we couldn't have ever done it without the super cute real life engaged couple Erica & Karl, you both were a pleasure to be around.
We are all thrilled and honored to  also be featured on both forget me knot weddings & 100 layer cake blogs sharing with all their followers our shoot.

A HUGE thank you to all the girls & boys that made this shoot happen.
enjoy,
