August 2010

It was a gorgeous fall-like day in the middle of the normally hot month of August when Gaby, Edgar and I met up in Old Sacramento for their engagement session.

Meet Edgar and Gaby!

Gaby and Edgar wanted an interesting location for their engagement photos that offered variety and was near downtown Sacramento. We talked about a bunch of possibilities – their choice of Old Sacramento is one of my favorites. Old Sacramento has industrial locations like the one above, trains, lots of action, and an Old West feel – all within a few blocks!

There’s this great hidden courtyard below street level that was perfect for a number of concepts! We were having fun at this fountain.

And the brick walls enclosing the courtyard made great backdrops.

Gaby and Edgar inspired me to do something with this caboose. Here’s one of the concepts we did there.

As the sun started to set, we went down to the floating dock that runs the length of the waterfront on the Sacramento River to get some photos near the water.

I had a blast shooting with Gaby and Edgar. I can’t wait for their wedding!

Yvette and Josh were married at the Wild Wings golf and airport community in Woodland CA. It’s a great wedding location with Northern California countryside surrounding it and it’s right in the middle of a scenic wetlands area. Add lots of really nice people and as you can see from their photos – everyone had a great time celebrating with Yvette and Josh!

Meet Josh and Yvette!
