Hansen Wedding: Paso Robles Wedding Photographer at Terra Mia Vineyards

John and Heather's wedding at Terra Mia Vineyard on Saturday was truly spectacular!  We were welcomed by one of the nicest, warmest Saturdays of the year and had the best time exploring the incredible grounds at Terra Mia (weeping willows, vineyards, ponds...you name it, we had it).  Heather is one of those people who welcomes everyone with a smile and can make you laugh instantaneously.  John might come across a more reserved, but his quick witted humor and loyalty as a friend makes everyone circle around.  All in all, these two are amazing and I felt spoiled to be the one to capture their wedding.  By the end of the day, my cheeks hurt from laughing throughout the day, especially when capturing some amazing dance moves by this group.  Thank you, Mr. and Mrs. Hansen...you guys are truly one of a kind and a gift to those you are around.

Huber Wedding: Paso Robles Wedding Photographer at Santa Margarita Ranch

2017 weddings are here and oh what an amazing Saturday it was!  Yes, we were sandwiched between rain a few days before and rain a few days after but Saturday gave us a break in the downpour and a gorgeous backdrop at Santa Margarita Ranch.  I chatted with Annie and Matt a few days before the wedding to calm the rain jitters and assure them both how incredible rain could make for pictures if we were up for an adventure.  Luckily for me, they were willing, ready, and beyond photogenic!  Matt and Annie's wedding was nothing short of a celebration and I must say, it will definitely be one for the books.  Rarely do we get rain and even more rarely do I get to shoot a ceremony inside the Santa Margarita Ranch Barn (most are on the lawn).  GOODNESS!...the place looked magical with the subtle light creeping through the barn doors while these two exchanged vows.  I loved it!  Matt and Annie are truly amazing and I felt lucky to capture their story.  Thank you Mr. and Mrs. Huber!!!!

Ascik Wedding: Paso Robles Wedding Photography at Santa Margarita Ranch

The Santa Margarita Ranch never disappoints in hosting an incredible wedding AND reminding me how much I love being a wedding photographer.  There are so many areas to sneak away for pictures, as well as, to escape the North County heat.  Mark and Megan were such a blessing to work with and truly know how to celebrate.  Having a first look before the ceremony, we were able to get the bulk of the pictures out of the way in order to allow for Mark and Megan to enjoy their cocktail hour and train ride.  Oh how I love the Santa Margarita Ranch Train!  I have ridden it more times than I can remember and I always act like it's my first.  The views it provides and the entertainment for guests truly makes weddings at the Ranch stick out in everyone's mind.  Thank you, Mark and Megan, for being a couple who celebrates big and laughs hard...you both are amazing!
