Best window friends

Found these old photos. When my niece Riley was a baby a cat used to visit her at the window overlooking the back yard. Then when they moved to a new house a new cat with a missing eye started visiting her. I always liked to think that it was her great grandma from her dads side coming to see her. 
Taking these photos of Riley started my obsession with portraits through a window.

Lucie Stern Community Center Wedding

A few from this cute DIY Palo Alto wedding. The bride kept it comfortable and casual in a simple Anthropologie dress and Frye boots. The bridesmaids reminded me of ballerinas in their pale pink dresses. It was a gorgeous, free-spirited soiree which featured bouquets adorned with succulents and a vintage handkerchief bunting flag ceremony arch. Everything was perfect except mid reception when I started running a fever and became delirious! After the wedding I passed out in the car with a box of sprinkles cupcakes on my lap.

Kualoa Ranch Hawaii Wedding

Our first wedding of 2013 was a destination wedding on the island of Oahu, Hawaii. Jennie and Aaron had an intimate ceremony at Kualoa Ranch in front of an ancient fish pond. We arrived a few days early and were able to explore the island. I'll post more from our trip when I get my film back from the lab. Oh yeaaah and Kualoa Ranch is where they filmed Jurassic Park.
