Wedding at Marines' Memorial Club, San Francisco

A couple of weeks ago Sara and I had the privilege to photograph Liz and Jeff's wedding in San Francisco.



This is an amazing couple!! I had a blast with them last summer at Chrissy Field for their engagement session
We started at noon at Marines' Memorial to capture everyone getting ready, and then it was off on a cable car around San Francisco.


Pier 3 was our first stop- where we had an incredibly clear (and incredibly sunny) view of the city behind us. We were surprised at how incredibly warm it was in the city for the beginning of April!! A slight bump in the road occurred when our cable car driver informed us that the car was overheating- so we had to wait a few minutes for a back up to arrive. More opportunity for photos! :)

After we reloaded into the second car, it was off to stop #2, the Letterman Gardens at the Lucas Digital Arts Center. This place is absolutely incredible. As it turns out, Liz's family's company built the site, so it was extra special that we were able to utilize the gardens for family photos. Back on the cable car, we headed back to Marines' Memorial to prepare for the ceremony. The Crystal Ballroom was stunning- and after the cocktail hour it was transformed into the most elegant reception. I was a huge fan of the cake topper and the wedding favors (chocolate cable cars) - It reminded me of my own wedding 2 and a half years ago! (Our favors were little cable car Christmas ornaments)
