San Francisco Wedding in the mountains

I had the pleasure of capturing this incredible garden party wedding at carmel valley ranch, just outside of San Francisco.

The vibe and scenery surrounding Carmel Valley Ranch are outstanding. The resort is nestled in the hills of northern california, where you can watch the fog roll in in the evening. They also grow their own lavender which leaves the most beautiful scents and tastes.

This couple chose to have a lively yet beautiful wedding in northern california since thats where they were from. The florals were beautiful shades of white, greens and purples. unique details were everywhere leaving their guests to celebrate their matrimony in a magical setting.

While I was in the area, I had some other magical moments of my own- Finally seeing redwood trees for the first time. This was a dream come true for me. Id love to capture an elopement in the magesty of the red woods.

Anyways, back to this dream wedding…

While we were doing the first look by the beekeepers, a man walked out with a llama! The groom had thought it was set up beforehand, but it was all in the magic of the moment!

The other thing that set this wedding apart, besides the incredible flowers and scenery was the wedding coordinators. They went above and beyond making this wedding flow seemlessly.
