Veronica and Dana came in from Houston, Texas for a photo shoot at the The Ritz Carlton in Half Moon Bay.  I’ll be shooting their wedding in Zihuatanejo, Mexico this October.  I can’t wait!

This post is extra special because the bride and groom are good friends of mine from college, which makes it even more gratifying to show off their photos to the world. Charlie was my roommate for two years and I’ve know Katie since freshman year, so it felt great to play such an important roll on their big day. Maybe I’m biased, but I think they threw the perfect wedding.

The entire shindig was held at Mt. Hood Bed and Breakfast in the countryside near Hood River, Oregon.  The owners, Jackie and Mike, are about the nicest people you could ever hope to meet and if you’re lucky enough to stay the night then be prepared for an incredible breakfast.

Hopefully Charlie and Katie are dipping their toes in the water of Anguilla by now. I tried to convince them that they needed a honeymoon photographer but they didn’t go for it. Imagine that!
