I’m so excited about this couple, I don’t even know where to begin. Things happen so unexpectedly sometimes. We were getting ready to photograph an elopement of Alexander and Marianna – a couple that lives in Moscow, Russia and who wanted to get married in Miami, Florida. But it turned out to be that by the end of the day we were photographing not JUST a couple, but a wedding of our new, good friends! Both of them have absolutely beautiful and kind personalities that clicked with us so well. We enjoyed the whole day with them, and sealed a new friendship by signing their marriage license as witnesses. Congratulations to you guys, again! Enjoy your story through our images..

 

 

And then we went back to their hotel room, so they could tell the good news to their relatives in Russia through Skype :)

Back to the beach for more bride and groom photos

 

 

Hello there! A little update on how we’re doing and then you can scroll down to check out these maternity photos. Unfortunately, right on the April fools day, Justin fell off a wing chair and, what it turned out to be, broke his arm. Beginning of this week turned out way too crazy for us, especially when we found out that Justin had to have a surgery to fix his broken bone. We’re all good now and the little one is feeling much better and is back to his playing mood.

Now, take a look at a few photos from Olya’s maternity session we’ve shot in Rocklin, CA

 

 

Well hello, hello! Its been a while since we’ve posted any updates on how we’re doing. We’re way overdue for the personal post. And today is an awesome opportunity for it. Our oldest  son, Nathan just turned 6 today. And since some of you have been keeping up with our blog, we felt like sharing it with you and post a few pictures of our boys. It is definitely fascinating to see how two of our little ones grow and develop. So much energy and curiosity every single day keep us pretty much overwhelmed. Kids are definitely a great blessing and we are thankful to God for giving us such a wonderful family.

So, Happy 6th Birthday to Nathan!!!

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

To start the season with this wedding was a great blessing! Its wonderful to be back in the flow of the work that we love doing. This was truly a celebration of love. Every detail was complementing Joe and Jonelle perfectly and the whole atmosphere of the event was truly magical. You could feel the love and care that these two were surrounded with and it was wonderful for us to witness and capture that.
We wanted to say thank you to Tina from “oh So Swank” for doing a great job putting this whole event together and creating a ‘seamless’ schedule for the day.

Take a look at a few of the images from that day…

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

San Francisco, unfortunately, didn’t treat us very nicely this time. Brutal cold front reached in all the way to the long term memory part in my brain and reminded me of those cold, winter days in Moscow. We definitely got spoiled with too much sun, here in Central California.  Jessica is Yana’s cousin, and Cris is just a stud – and they are obviously in love with each other.
