You would never believe that this wedding was photographed in a matter of one day with all of the locations, wardrobe changes and activities that were planned. I am pretty proud of the bride and groom and how they pulled off such an elegant, modern, chic affair--from getting ready at the Inn at the Presidio to the ceremony at Mission Dolores to wedding party photos in San Francisco's Financial District to the reception at the Palm Event Center in Pleasanton. How did it get all done? It couldn't have gotten done without the talented team of Dreams on a Dime lead by the fabulous Cierra Lockwood. The florals, the decor, the linens, the cake, the wedding dresses (yes wedding dresses), the red bottom shoes, all just lovely. But the most beautiful moments weren't the decor or wardrobe but the moments where Aldo would admire his bride, kiss her hand or ice the boo boo on his wife's knee.--a true knight to Jessica's princess. Jessica and Aldo, WOW! I am can't believe the day and how you got it all so beautifully done. All of your hard work and preparation, and thought is apparent. Enjoy! xoxo, Stacey

Have I mentioned how much I love to photograph San Francisco weddings?! Kristen and Jack's wedding in the Presidio--Inn at the Presidio, Chapel of Our Lady, Presidio Golden Gate Club--was no exception. Yes, the setting was amazing, the weather was ideal, the florals were gorgeous, the bride and groom were beautiful. But it was the constant joy reflected on Kristen's angelic face, and the kick back feeling of the groom that set the tone for the day. It was very important to Kristen and Jack that their wedding was full of fun for their friends and family who were coming from all over the country to celebrate. They hired a band and made it a priority to spend as much time possible dancing and hanging with family and friends. Kristen and Jack, What a day! You not only know how to throw a party but you can also get down. Your constant smiles and laughter throughout the day were contagious. Enjoy! xoxo, Stacey
I love this moment between Kristen and her dad when he saw her for the first time in her wedding gown. On a side note, I love Kristen's bouquet (photo above left) created by Monica Lynn, In Full Bloom.
