Kim and I were in the city last week, for the long-anticipated wedding of Stephanie and Mark. We have had so much fun with these two-- a fantastic engagement shoot, an exciting rehearsal session, and finally, the Big Day! Stephanie and Mark had their ceremony at Old St. Mary's, the SF landmark that borders Chinatown (on the same night as the Chinese New Year celebration) and their exquisite reception at the magnificent Olympic Club. From start to finish, this was a picture perfect day!K: Niki shot this image of the menu. First of all - could that lighting be any cooler- great job bringing the drama sister. Second - I love the simple and elegant style of the stationary.
Stephanie and her bridesmaids got ready at the Olympic Club-- so much fun!
N: I had some serious shoe envy over these sexy silver numbers!
K: There Niki goes again with her shoe fetish!
K: Steph's hair was so GOOD!
Mark sent over a love letter...
N:The stairs in the entry of the Olympic Club were the perfect setting for these glamorous girls! Kim grabs this shot, as we get the girls on the stairs...
...and I get the shot from this view.
N:I had a ball photographing Stephanie-- she looked like a vintage movie starlet!
And Kim took advantage of this great angle!
K: Niki shot this image - oh I love the leg and the grid... so cool.
N: Now it's time for Matt and the boys! We brought them outside, using the classic architecture as a backdrop. Kim has this great close up...
...while I am getting the big shot.
N: We asked the boys to stand in the street while traffic stopped and people cheered!
K: Yea - I remember thinking... "I hope no one is in a hurry.. I don't want to die." But it is the city so it's just like double parking ;).
N: One of our FAVORITE times of the whole day-- walking back down the aisle.
K: I love how Mark reach for his mom at this moment. They had such a great relationship. Made me look down the road 25 years to my sons getting married. I'm not too proud to say I got a little teary.
K: Awe the first moment together as mr. and mrs. - I LOVE that moment.
N: There is the most amazing alley directly across the street from the church-- fantastic!
K: I really love the beauty of Stephanie next to the urban-ness of the graffiti.
Back to the Olympic Club-- let the party begin!
N: Up on the roof, Mr. and Mrs. Penrod take a moment. Here is my perspective...
...while Kim takes a closer view.
K: Here is a great example of both of us shooting the same moment. I love it!
N: Mark took the floor while Stephanie looks on. Kim made this incredible image, using her trademark off camera flash...
And I grabbed this one from the other side.K: That is such a great moment. And I so love how each of us captured it.
K: Oh another of my favorite times of the day - the first dance. mmmm... yummy!
