Christa is the sister of my best friend's husband (get that? :))... i am shooting her wedding on April 11th at Green Pastures and it's going to be tons of fun because Peep (aka Kate, the daughter of my best friend, and she hates that i still call her that...she'll be 7 on the 5th) will be the flower girl and there will be lots of people there i know. i've known Christa since she was 15/16 years old... it's crazy that she is all grown up and getting married!

here are some of my personal pics from my trip to california this month. these trees are everywhere in Napa - bradford pear maybe? i love them...

my good friend Jenny.... we stopped outside of Whitehall Lane (one of my favorite wineries!!) to take a few pics in their field...

Whitney and Chico... Whitney came along as my second shooter for the wedding.

Carmela and her best friend Monique - Carmela was the coordinator for Nicole and Adam's wedding... my second fabulous Napa wedding with her!

the 'Wooley Weeders'! apparently sheep are used in Napa to help maintain the vineyards...

May is one of my college roommates....we have been friends forever and i love this shot of her!

me and Joanne in Jen's glasses :)

of course we had to go to Ghiradelli in San Francisco!

the view from our room our last night...

I just got back from California!! what a great way to start off my spring season! Nicole and Adam picked Davis California at the Davis Community Church (where Nicole's parents got married!) for the ceremony then everyone was shuttled to Napa for the reception at Auberge . I love Napa so i was really excited to shoot this wedding - and i had never been to this hotel, it was beautiful. Carmela of InStyle Weddings and Destinations coordinated and as always everything turned out perfectly. Adam and Nicole, thank you so much for trusting me - i hope you like the pictures as much as i do!!
