Christmas Photos in Walnut Creek

I had to share a few of my favorites from Kim and Mark's recent family session in Walnut Creek. It's hard to believe it's been over two and a half years since I photographed their wedding. I was thrilled to meet the newest member of their sweet family!

Wedding at the Brazilian Room, Tilden Park, Berkeley, CA

One of my goals for this spring is to update my album samples that I show to prospective clients. It's been a few seasons since I've ordered new samples so I have some work ahead of me to show my favorite images from some of the fabulous events I've photographed in just the past couple of years. I knew when I photographed Yuki and Sam's wedding in September that I would definitely want an album on hand to show from their wedding. Their wedding was at the incredible Brazilian Room inside Tilden Park in Berkeley. I LOVE this location. It's so close to everything yet you feel like you are in a totally secluded secret venue. It is such a sweet spot for a ceremony- a perfect choice for smaller events with a rustic feel. Yuki got ready at the nearby Lafayette Park Hotel. The ceremony and reception were at the Brazil Room- but Yuki and Sam decided to take a quick drive over to the Lawrence Hall of Science for some photos with the wedding party after the ceremony. Again, what an incredible place for photos! I had so much fun photographing Yuki and Sam and their friends with the incredible views of the city AND the cool exhibits- my favorite being the enormous DNA strand they were able to climb on :) Here are a few spreads (two pages each) of my first draft of the album- I can't wait to get it in my hands! Congrats Yuki and Sam :)
