MICHELLE & LEI | Engagement Session

All we can say about these two is that from beginning to end we had a great time with them!  Whether they were eating ice cream or making dirt angels or just walking hand in hand we had a perma-grin just watching them. We seriously can not wait for their wedding day! We’re certain that their family & friends will be just as fun!

When we told Lei to lean on the tree he thought we said “climb” the tree. What’s funny is he actually did it! we <3 these two!

Lei mentioned that if Michelle gets mad all he has to do is buy her mint chocolate chip and he’s forgiven. How easy peasy is that?!? :)

BRAD & CHRISTINE | Abbey Wedding

We can’t tell you enough how crazy we are about Brad & Christine. Truly two of the funniest, sweetest and most genuine couples we know. Okay, so maybe Christine is the funny one and Brad is the shy one! :) Nevertheless, these two are meant for each other and it was evident throughout the day just by the way they looked each other or snuck kisses when they thought no one was looking.

On their wedding day we also got to see Benny & Cheryl (one of our past couples) and Eileen & Ryan (one of our future couples). So now we can say that we had the past, present and future of Trailbrook Photography all in one place! :) Wow. That was corny but i like it!

On to the photos….

NATE & LINDA | Catamaran Wedding

I have to begin by saying that I am in love with Linda’s dress. Everywhere we went people stopped to compliment her dress so I definitely was not the only one! :) In addition, Linda did her own hair & make-up which came out incredible!

On their wedding day we were blessed with an amazing couple with incredible style & undeniable chemistry, a beautiful sunset, a crowdful of wild & crazy dancers and a perfect team of vendors. We couldn’t have asked for a better wedding to be a part of!

Candis & Adrian had the best sermon at their wedding. The priest compared marriage to chewing gum….delicious & flavorful at first but after time it gets old and dull. he, of course, said to try to avoid feeling this way. everyone was cracking up!

but with laughter comes tears and i lost it when i saw adrian crying happy tears…happy, we found out later, to be a part of candis’ amazing family and start a family of his own.

KATIE & DAVIN | Ultimate Skybox Wedding

You know when you meet a couple and you just know they are meant for each other? That’s Davin & Katie. They both have an incredibly calm nature and, as can be attested by all their friends & family, are extremely generous and selfless.

Their wedding ceremony took place at the Embarcadero and their reception at the Ultimate Skybox both of which was a first for us! :) The set up was classy yet casual with open seating and super chic lounge furniture. I loved the set up! Lots of mingling & tons of room to dance! And believe me…there was some serious dancing going on! Oh, and they also attached $50 to the bouquet & garter to ensure maximum participation. I’ve seen $5 even $20…but never $50. I told you they are generous! :)

We were so honored to be a part of their day and I seriously could have gotten paid with grilled cheese sandwiches and tater tots from Davin’s restaurant & bar, The Corner Bar. So delicious!

Davin wrote a poem for Katie as his wedding gift. It was definitely a tear jerker!

JONATHAN AND MEGAN | Wedding

This wedding had a couple of firsts for us!

Number one,  it was our very first time shooting at the Natural History Museum, and we can’t begin to tell you what a cool venue it is for a wedding!  Everyone was dancing among dinosaurs and dining below life-size sea mammals! 

Number two, we had our first wedding crasher! At least the first one that we know of! He was out there dancing until he got caught and was promptly escorted out!  Check out the last image on this post!  He can’t be missed since he has the pink, yellow and green nike’s!

I can’t go any further without mentioning that Megan’s dress was hand sewn by a designer more fabulous than any other designer out there —- Annie, Megan’s mom.  Not only is she the sweetest lady ever but she’s super talented and even to the last minute was making Megan’s garter!

No details were spared for their wedding down to Jonathan’s groom cake which was in the shape of a bottle of Bud and a glass of beer!  It was pretty amazing!

Jonathan & Megan — hope you guys had the best time in Disneyworld and the land of Budweiser!  We had an amazing time at your wedding and hope you enjoy your teaser pics!

JOHN & NICOLE | Wedding

When I entered Nicole’s getting ready room I gasped when I saw her dress.  I was in love with the clean lines and the meticulous detail.  Fast forward to their reception….their wedding cake mimicked the pleats of Nicole’s dress.  It was just about the coolest thing I ever saw! :)

John & Nicole  - wow!  what an event!  all the details of your day truly showed your personalities and your love for travel and style.  you two are meant for one another! we are so happy to have been a part of your day and can’t wait to show you the rest of your photos!  Nicole, you looked perfect!  The hair, the dress, the shoes…just perfect!  And John, you looked pretty dapper yourself with your fedora! 

P.S.  We have to give a shout out to Chris & Christine who we were able to see at the wedding and who referred these two lovebirds to us! xoxoxo
