Etimos Wedding {wedgewood wedding photos, foxtail wedding photos, sonoma county wedding photographer}

I thoroughly enjoy my job. There is no question. It is mainly because of the balance it gives me. I love photography, the art, the joy it brings people, and the consistent challenge to get better and better. I LOVE weddings. I know I'm a crazy nut job, the one and only non multi cat owning crazy woman that loves weddings. They are just great! I get to see the family dynamic and meet new people who have all come from different walks of life, fought different challenges in their lives, and I get to witness true love in all different forms. From the true love between the newlyweds, to the love of a mother and her son, and all the other family members. I get to watch their relationships and bonds really come alive on this one special occasion! Then I get to capture it all with my camera. But I guess most of all I love weddings because all of those reasons make for a really FUN day. I get the privilege of meeting up with the bride and her "possy" a good 3 hours prior to the ceremony and I usually don't leave until about 30-45 min before the reception ends. It's a long day, but I try and make the best out of every minute. I really like to think that I just get a feel for the people I'm working with and try and allow them to be relaxed and have a good time and not to think about the "picture time" and that really allows me to get some great candid shots of people just being themselves. Well with all that being said. I had a BLAST at the Etimos wedding. I am a sucker for, ok I've erased that number like 4 no wait 5 times! I guess I'm a sucker for a lot of things! (does that just make me flat out a sucker?) One of those things is super adorable kids, another is a daddy and his love for his baby, ooh and mommy's and their son's ( I always start day dreaming about me and Aidan and what his wedding day will be like...he is determined to elope or never marry I know!) and the other is an amazing bond and love between two people! This wedding was FULL of all of it! I couldn't have asked for a better group of people to spend my Birthday with (que the Birthday wishes...)
Here are just 50 of my favorites! ya I should be getting better at narrowing down my favorites but I just keep getting worse...or maybe my couples just keep getting better! who knows!






who says groomsmen don't like to take pictures???
