For Nicole and Sean’s after session we picked two beautiful Sacramento parks – McKinley Park, with its rose garden, and the luscious Capitol Park.
Meet Nicole and Sean!
The roses were in full bloom!

Put a great bride and groom together in a beautiful park and you just know it will be fun!
I just love this image of Nicole and Sean on the Sacramento Capitol steps!

The theme yesterday for Nicole and Nick’s after session was urban bride and groom! We chose downtown Sacramento as our backdrop for a fun shoot on a beautiful spring day.
Meet Nicole and Nick!
We started at a central location and walked around, looking for urban backdrops to match our theme. This next bride and groom image was taken right off the sidewalk where a side yard is blocked off by this cool iron fence.
This next set of photos were taken a few blocks away. We loved the beautiful light we found and the concrete backgrounds.

Nicole’s dress is beautiful! Check out the detailing!
We walked all over and took a lot more photos than I have room for here. We finished up across the street from where we started.

The UC Davis Arboretum was a beautiful setting for Nicole and Chris’ bride and groom after-wedding photo session.
Meet Nicole and Chris!
Nicole and Chris had a Celtic theme in their wedding and the woodsy surroundings of the Arboretum fit their theme perfectly!
Chris and Nicole:
Putah Creek makes a nice backdrop.
We took this photo at the Mondavi Center, which is just next door to the Arboretum. There was a performance going on inside and it was intermission when we were shooting – so we had an audience and the concert goers got some extra entertainment!
Back at the Arboretum at the edge of the Redwood Grove.

It was raining cats and dogs on Easter Day in Sacramento! That’s the day Tyreina and Fred had scheduled for their bride and groom after-wedding photo session – but we wisely moved it out a week – and we ended up with perfect weather!
Tyreina and Fred wanted an urban feel to their photos, so I picked an area with lots of shops and lofts near L Street and 18th as a starting point. These next eleven images were all taken in about a three block area. There is so much going on in a city and so many different backgrounds for a shoot!
The image on the left with the old-world feel was taken at the St. John’s Lutheran Chuch and the image on the right with the vibrant colors was taken on the same block.
Meet Tyreina and Fred!

We had to get a photo in front of this colorful mural!
Tyreina and Fred are a lot of fun!!
The rest of these photos were taken downtown Sacramento about a mile from our original spot.
I love their connection! And, Tyreina’s wedding dress is gorgeous!
Tyreina.
