Several months back, Shirley and Aaron came to us interested in having us photograph their wedding ceremonies. This was our first time shooting multiple events for the same couple and we were very excited to be involved. The first ceremony took place in Sea Ranch, CA, a small beach town a few hours north of San Francisco. We met Shirley and Aaron, along with a few of their closest family members, at the very unique Sea Ranch Chapel. The ceremony was brief but there was no shortage of heart felt wishes and happiness. After the vows were exchanged we all met up at a home for food, conversation, and mingling. Two days later, we met Shirley and Aaron at their home in downtown Petaluma and took a short walk to the Petaluma Women's Club for their official ceremony in front of all their friends and family. The reception was potluck style and everyone brought a yummy dish to share. Folks were also treated to an hour of live music by some of the couples musical colleagues.
Both of these days had so many things that made them great, but for us the highlights were definitely the great music, the tree planting ceremony, the unique Sea Ranch Chapel, and all of the opportunities to shoot this great couple on their own.
