Vivian and David || 2.14.08

zarate-37-2Valentine’s Day 2009 marked the first day of marriage for Vivian and David Zarate.  As a second shooter to Keith Dunlop (www.kdiphoto.com) I had the pleasure of spending most of the pre-ceremony with David (the groom), who couldn’t have been more nervous inside, but remaining cool on the outside.   I thought that the above black and white, couldn’t have said it better, showing David waiting patiently for his bride.  David came through just fine though.  Maybe it was those pre-wedding shots of tequila that helped calm his nerves in the end.

Eliza and Jon || 2.7.09

img_0277 I just spent Saturday shooting a rad wedding at the Presidio in San Francico with Keith Dunlop (www.kdiphoto.com).  It was the first wedding of 2009 for me.  The bride and groom were the kind of people that make the six degrees of seperation actually maybe four or five.  Both Jon and Eliza were old inhabitants of San Luis Obispo, during their undergrad years at Cal Poly.  Eliza is now a biology student at U.C. Santa Cruz and Jon is a mastermind of software.   I feel like my degrees of seperation were reduced when I heard that guests of theirs flew in from all over the world, including Africa!!  Like the guests, the speeches and ceremonies were also laced with culture, with influences from Eliza’s Persian culture and Jon’s Latino background.  Personal fav for the day:  The Mariachi band leading the guests from the chapel to the officers club!!  You can check out the venue at:  www.sanfranciscoweddings.org
