blog love from Snippet & Ink!

Got some great blog love from Snippet and Ink! They loved the inspiration groomal shoot we put together last week! High-end wedding blogs are super tough to get into these days.. they all want to see tons of handmade details/props/etc. I've always thought, what more do you need than stellar photos of two people in love? S&I seems to agree! Very cool. Here's the link! ( http://www.snippetandink.com/photo-features/love-shoots/spring-orchard-bridal-portraits/ )

katie+ryan wedding at squaw valley/lake tahoe

Wow! What a wedding! Katie and Ryan are die-hard skiers that live in San Francisco, but spend almost every winter weekend skiing their asses of up at Squaw Valley in Lake Tahoe, CA. The slopes are close to their hearts so they chose to have their wedding at Squaw Valley too. It was simply the absolute perfect wedding weekend. Huge dump of snow the day before, then 3 days of glorious blue skies and warm temps. We all had a great day of skiing with the bride & groom the day before the wedding and then the wedding day itself was flawless. Oh and did I mention, this group of family and friends knows how to party?(!). Well, they do. And here's the proof! I hope you enjoy the photos as much as I enjoyed being there to capture all this love ( and madness! ;)
