Sunny and Barney crack me up! They were one of the couples I “fell in love” with instantly when I met them, so funny… anyhow, on the engagement session day, Barney had to have a few shots before he could get into the mood of love… I could not stop laughing when shooting and editing their photos… every couple is different, and Sunny and Barney are full of fun in a different way… after a while I stopped telling them what to do and the true them came out…
Sunny and Barney made this cool video:
Bryan got all toned by his big day – 2 months of gym training without dinners! He lost 20 pounds for this perfect day. “Shannon is my biggest motivation”. It just seems like there isn’t anything that Bryan is not willing to do… when I heard that, it motivated me for a day – I didn’t have dinner that evening and went to jogging in the Fort Mason Park… While Bryan was getting ready, he said: “I just cannot find another person than Shannon who’s more perfect for me”… indeed, they have know each other for 12 years, and things happen for a reason – it’s called fate.
In the evening we hiked up to the mountain for the Golden Gate Bridge view, they opened their arms: “who else have such beautiful wedding, with such beautiful view of the Gold Gate Bridge, and such beautiful weather?” They were the happiest couple… At the end, isn’t that all it matters?

A few days later after Bryan and Shannon’s wedding day, they fell so much more relexed and decided to have some more photos taken. So we hiked up to Cavallo point again to get more shots… here they are.
Suzie and Matt are not only the hottest couple, but also have the cutest love story. here is Suzie’s version of it:
East meets west. I traveled across country in search of adventure but little did I know I would meet the love of my life. He was the manager of the building I moved into!! We had a “round 1″ of dating but Matt was not ready for a serious relationship. 10 months went by…..and he hoped it was not too late. After all, he had never stopped thinking about me. When he asked for a chance, I could not say no. He was always my one true love and I knew it. We moved in together 6 months later. On 8/8/08, he proposed in my old apartment where we had first met. He had kept the apartment vacant for months explicitly for that purpose. 
We celebrated with champagne on the roof of our buidling overlooking the GG bridge. It’s been blissful ever since…

Let it flow and tell you Kim and Dan’s story – As you can see, their love started to brew in Madeleine Chocolate… Kim’s going to have a beautiful song to sing along the photos to tell their love story… will keep you updated on that!
Dan and Kim met on a cold January day while standing in line at the downtown San Francisco patisserie Café Madeleine. Kim had just returned from safari in Botswana, so she was on the lookout for alligators, not litigators. Dan was about to go to trial in Detroit for two months, and was ostensibly taking a lunch break – but turned out to be on the hunt himself.
The next day, they rendezvoused for dinner at Bix, a chic restaurant hidden in a dark alley near the financial district. By the end of their second date, across the Golden Gate Bridge in Sausalito, Dan had captured Kim’s heart for good.
This is the story of their San Francisco love affair.
Another fun wedding at Palace Hotel. Mickey and Minnie was a big role for Janet and Jose’s wedding day… Palace Hotel built a Disney castle cake for them, without even seeing the cake before the wedding, when Janet saw it, she was in tears… isn’t palace great! I also got the ring shot on Mickey Mouse as well…
They are the funniest couple, so much love, so much fun, so much real happiness and easiness in the air… I was envious….

Anyone can see that there’s so much love between Paul and Marie… here’s Paul’s version of their story:
It was a dark and stormy night in February when I headed over to Ron’s house to relax, watch television and play videogames after a long day at work. When I arrived at Ron’s home, he had by his side, the most beautiful vision with him. Through the course of the night I discovered that Marie was Ron’s cousin and visiting the United States. I was so smooth and suave during the whole encounter, I apparently made no impression on her. In order to take Marie out, I took both of them with me on my annual wine tasting trip to Napa for Strings.
It was in Napa that I mustered the courage to ask her out. So on March 14, 2007 we went to see the movie, “300″. To tell you the truth, Marie thought we were going out as friends. She had no idea I was trying to take her out on a date. Eventually I finally convinced her of my true intentions and I have been the happiest and luckiest man ever since.
Wow – amazing – exactly 2 years later, they were happily married… best wishes to both of you!
