Dave & Kerry: married on the ranch

Craig — Wed, 28 Jul 2010 05:57:31 +0000

Had the best time at Dave and Kerry’s wedding last month. How could I not ? It was held at the Running P Ranch in Woodlake. Running Pee? Really? That’s awesome. And everybody there enjoyed it just as much as I did. So what if I had to dodge a little horse poop here and there to get great shots of the lovely couple. It was worth it. We had whatcha call a down home, knee-slappin’ good time. Dave and Kerry – thank you so much for the opportunity. I loved it!

Roy & Sheena: Engaged

Had a good ol’ time hanging out with Roy and Sheena and driving from one corner of Fresno to the other all night. We started with a fun stop at Grace Christian Preschool of Fresno where the two actually met as toddlers! Then we were off to Woodward Park to catch the sunset and gets some nice landscape shots. To cap the night we went to Blackbeards, a favorite of theirs, to have some fun playing games and miniature golf. If this is any indication, I’m thinking their wedding is going to be a blast!

Dean & Angela: Engaged

Although I’ve been to Bass Lake plenty of times, I’ve never been to Dean and Angela’s secret spot atop the mountain overlooking the lake. It worked out to be a great spot to watch the sun set for their engagement session. We mixed in a few shots in the trees, along the lake shore and at the marina

. But nothing was better than the amazing sunset on the granite dome view. Great time guys. See you for your wedding next month.

Ashley & CJ: Married

Had a great time with Ashley and CJ whose wedding I photographed a couple of weeks ago. What a cool thing for Ashley to be married by her father at New Hope Community Church in Clovis. After the service we went out to Old Town Clovis for some fun photos in front of the old brick walls down there. After that we went across the street to the Veterans Memorial Building where we had the best BBQ dinner and spent the rest of the evening dancing and having fun. I had a little fun myself shooting pictures of the new married couple’s rings on top of lemons — which I thought was a cool color accent for the reception. Enjoy!

Angela and Josh: Engagement pictures at the beach

Craig — Fri, 23 Apr 2010 21:56:37 +0000

I was stoked to shoot Angela and Josh’s engagement session since they decided they wanted it to be out in the Carmel area with a quick stop at a local winery. Twist my arm! Uh..yeah ok, cuz it’s so unpleasant to I go make pictures at the beach and a winery with a friendly couple. Carmel has got to be one of the most beautiful places on earth. I never get tired of going there. I just wish I could get out there more often. Anyway, after our stop at Chateau Julien winery, my gracious company bought me a bottle of wine! You guys are now my best friends. So then we cruised along 17-Mile Drive and made pictures along the beach, the famous Lone Cypress Tree and the wooded area inland. We made one more stop at the beach at Carmel-By-The-Sea before wrapping it up with some coffee and a stroll through town. A very stunningly beautiful couple and a lot of fun too – Angela and Josh – I cannot wait to see the real fun at your wedding this summer.
