Christina and Michael’s wedding day at Casa Real Winery at Ruby Hill has finally arrived. It’s been over a year since I first met Christina and Michael and more than 10 months since I shot their engagement photos in Napa Valley. Christina and Michael’s storybook wedding took place at the gorgeous Casa Real Winery at Ruby Hill in Pleasanton, California. Being a Bay Area native, I always enjoy shooting weddings and events out in the beautiful wine country of California. As for the couple, Christina and Michael, this wedding took over a year of planning. They had special touches like up lighting in the elegant Casa Real Amber Room (where the ceremony took place), a rocking band playing, a solo harpist, a photo booth, and spotlighting displaying their names on the dance floor. But with all this careful planning, sometimes surprises make the day even more magical. Christina was pleasantly surprised by a beautiful heartfelt letter that Michael wrote to her to read before she put on her stunning Vera Wang wedding gown and very sexy gold glitter Christian Louboutin peep toe slingbacks shoes. Michael even recorded himself reading the letter to her while he writes the letter which is played back through the montage below. Enjoy!

I’ve waited a year and a half to photograph this amazing couple. Alina & Jared found me though several of my previous wedding couples that I had the privilege to photograph. We instantly hit it off during our initial meeting. Alina and Jared are such a fun and energetic couple that we had to have two engagement photo sessions. One in New York City, when they came to visit and another one back in Santa Cruz, California. Instead of engagement sessions, it actually felt more like just hanging out with great friends. Their wedding was held at Casa Real at the Ruby Hill Winery in Pleasanton, California. The wedding was full of fun and amazing details. From the 1,000 blue origami cranes that Alina folded herself, to the unique RX prescription pads at the guest sign-in table. I even had many of my past, present, and several future brides at the wedding so it was absolutely amazing to see them all. It was definitely a night to remember. Thanks again Alina & Jared for sharing your day with me! Below is the video montage and some of my favorite images from the wedding. Enjoy!
