Bat Mitzvah at Los altos Historical Museum in Los Altos, CA – Iliana
Posted on November 19, 2021
Iliana wanted her Bat Mitzvah to reflect an enchanted garden and The House of Vivid Designs made it into a reality transforming The Los Altos History Museum into a fairy tale. I loved photographing her Mitzvah and all her friends and family honoring this incredible time in her life. She is such a sweet girl celebrating her coming of age and it’s nice to see such happiness and love surrounding her!

Wedding in st. Mary’s Church in Nicasio, CA – Carley + Daniel
Posted on November 17, 2021
St. Mary’s Church in Nicasio, CA is one of the most idyllic chapels on the western coast. It dates back to 1867 and also served as a school house back in the day and Daniel’s grandmother was a student there. She then bought her siblings out to purchase 900 plus acres above St. Mary’s and had her children and grandchildren frolicking in the hills during family times. Carley and Daniel knew this was where they should get married and wanted the wedding photographs to reflect the nostalgia of their ancestry and roots. I loved photographing the two of them in the charming church and on Daniel’s grandmother’s beloved property. I wish these two so much love and the wish they can bring their children to enjoy this lovely land.

Bat Mitzvah at Beth Am Congreation Los Altos, CA -Bela
Posted on November 10, 2021
Bela was so radiant in her sari as her mother is Indian and her father is Jewish. She was so humble and kind to all her guests as I would watch her go pull in a classmate to include them in the dancing festivities if they felt left out. She was always aware of everyone in her surroundings. Bela had her services at Beth Am Congregation in Los Altos, CA and her party was at The Stanford Faculty Club in Palo Alto.

Bar Mitzvah Photography at Marin Country Club -Elam
Posted on September 3, 2021
Elam waited patiently during the pandemic to have his Bar Mitzvah party and it was well worth the wait! He had so much fun with his friends and family at the Marin Country Club playing so many rounds of pinball and basketball as there were many arcade games rented for the occasion. There was also a lot of dancing and all the kids were just so happy to be together having a great time celebrating Elam! Congratulations and Mazel Tov!

Bar Mitzvah at Rodef Shalom (B’nai) Ben and Jacob
Posted on August 11, 2021
Ben and Jacob are just the sweetest boys and both did a spectacular job with their B’nai Mitzvah at Rodef Shalom in San Rafael. Their mother, Moji, couldn’t have been more proud of them and it was so apparent by how loved they were by so many people whom showed up for them in person and on zoom. The Kiddish Lunch afterwards was filled with toasts and the Horah and everyone was so happy to be outside with their friends and family. It was a beautiful B’Nai Mitzvah and everyone was so proud of these boys. Look at them beaming in their photographs! Such handsome boys! Mazel Tov!

WEdding at Montage Healdsburg Caitlin + Nick
Posted on August 11, 2021
Caitlin and Nick chose the Montage Healdsburg for their wedding reception as they loved the swimming pool and view–You can’t argue that as it’s pretty stunning! I took their wedding portraits around the pool as the reflection was pretty dramatic! They were surrounded by close family and friends wishing them the best for their life together and after the wedding portraits were finished they all changed into their bathing suits and enjoyed the Sonoma County sunshine and took a dip in this beautiful swimming pool.

Wedding at Dillion Beach -Eydis + Tyler
Posted on August 4, 2021
Cutest pandemic wedding story here 
Eydis and Tyler met on a trivia night zoom session. He lived in Miami and Eydis was visiting her mother in Iceland. Huge time difference but they still FaceTimed for almost a year until they met in person. After that, Tyler moved to Northern California where Eydis lives, proposed to her and the rest is for the history books. Love always finds a way. Eydis and Tyler had their wedding at Dillion Beach in Sonoma County and stayed the night at Dillion Beach Resort in a cute tiny home that was very similar to homes in Eydis’ beloved country, Iceland. It’s such a charming resort and their wedding was exactly what they wanted. They were on the beach with close friends and family and views that just don’t quit. Just like them. They never gave up and now they are together for all their days.
