Amanda and Maneesh – Auberge Du Soleil

Can you say COLOR?!

Among the many festival-related rituals in a Hindi’s life, weddings are by far the most extensive of ceremonies. Laughter, vibrancy and fun were the recurring themes of Amanda & Maneesh’s wedding on this gorgeous day in Napa Valley, and let’s just say they know how to party!

Auberge Du Soleil was the perfect setting for this wedding. This venue embodies the natural beauty of wine country, but with a luxurious and modern twist. The space is intimate yet has the capacity to host larger parties if needed.

After the heavenly ceremony was over, the reception was held indoors in the function room that provided a cozy and romantic environment for the celebration. The sweethearts were welcomed into each other’s family and shared a fabulous dinner thanks to the incredible culinary talents of the Michelin star restaurant at Auberge.

As you scroll through this beautiful wedding day, I hope you enjoy this gorgeous couple as much as I did – their smiles and their joy are contagious. Amanda and Maneesh, thank you so much for allowing me to capture this incredible time of your life. It was such an honor to be a part of it.

 


Gabrielle Vineyard Wedding | Napa California

BRIANNA & JORDAN | WEDDING| GABRIELLE VINEYARD | NAPA, CA

I had an amazing day working with Brianna and Jordan at Gabrielle Vineyard, a private wedding venue in Napa.  Located in the heart of wine country, it made for a beautiful ceremony with its stunning landscapes, fields of lavender and pristine vineyards. Gabrielle Vineyard is truly majestic…and ideal spot for a romantic, yet intimate, California Wedding. Take a look at a few favorites from their wonderful celebration below!

Special thanks to Ashleigh Taylor it was great shooting with you.

SHELBY & DAVID | WEDDING | NOVELTY HILL JANUIK WINERY | WOODINVILLE, WA

Adjectives: Modern, Loving, Romantic, Playful, Open, Dramatic, Real, and Sexy.

Shelby and David are such an incredible couple.  They are incredibly kind, humble, honest, fun people.  Shelby & David chose Novelty Hill Januik Winery for their wedding celebration.  The winery boasts modern architecture, with clean and dramatic angles and lighting.  It was a fabulous location to shoot,  and I continuously found new inspirations around every corner.  The morning started with Shelby getting ready at Willows Lodge, while the guys got ready at David’s office.  There were so many beautiful details from Shelby & David’s wedding that it was difficult to choose pictures for the blog.  We captured some emotional images of their first sight of each other with a little help from David’s son, Chase.  He has become increasingly interested in shooting ever since I photographed their engagement session this spring. Watch out fellow photographers, by the time Chase can obtain a work permit, he’ll be shooting some amazing images!  After Willows Lodge, we hopped in a limo and went to Shelby’s parents home on Lake Washington to capture a few additional portraits, then we were off the Januik Winery for the Ceremony and Reception.  Take a look at my favorites and their slideshow below.  Congratulations Shelby & David!
