Marcie and Eric are Engaged and Lovin it! Sacramento Wedding Photography

August 14, 2009

Last weekend I had the pleasure of shooting Marcie and Eric’s first couples photoshoot! It ws an honor to say the least…. they never went to Sears, Olan Mills, Picture People… they didn’t know, but they saved it for me! Or at least, thats how I look at it. If that doesn’t make you feel special, I don’t know what will. I have a feeling, though, that this is more common than I realize, and Marcie and Eric may not realize it, but they have given me a new appreciation for what I do. Marcie and Eric are totally in love, and I was going to write more about it, but its obvious in their engagement photos that we shot in mid-town sacramento, so I’ll let them do the talking.

You guys are rad, and I’m stoked to head down to LA to shoot your wedding next month!!!

Much<3,

Firehouse Wedding Photography: Dave and Jenny ( Thats us!)

August 14, 2009

After only 10 short years of perfecting our relationship, Jenny and I are a happily married couple. And yes, after only two weeks, I can say happily. Jenny and I are like peas and carrots! Our wedding was absolutely gorgeous. We chose to book The Firehouse and their outdoor courtyard for our day, and it was such an obvious choice for us… We didn’t even visit another venue!

The Firehouse

1112 2nd St
Sacramento, CA 95814
(916) 442-4772

The Firehouse is classy and good-looking, but it was elevated to another stratosphere by our florist, Martha Andrews. Martha is the creative genius and owner of Blooms, a Sacramento Floral Boutique specializing in weddings. Jenny and I felt the awesome-ness of her talent when we walked into the courtyard as she was adding the finishing touches…I just said ..wow. After the sun set on Old Sacramento, the uplighting that our DJ and friend Joe Kalamaras brought helped transform the location from a classy brick patio to a romantic, secluded event fit for a magazine….Here’s some details from my awesome photographer Jessica Moores’ blog:

To see the rest, head over to her blog.

Now that our wedding is completed,  and I have gorgeous wedding photos from the Firehouse and Downtown Sacramento to pour over, we can tackle so many other projects that fall by the wayside, like installing our new hot tub, landscaping, and working on my new blog and website!

Much <3,

Dave

Cabo San Lucas Wedding Honeymoon Photos

August 4, 2009

Ahhhhh. That’s exactly we felt when the wedding was complete and our toes finally hit the sand in Cabo San Lucas, Mexico. We received a week-long stay in a Timeshare as a wedding gift, and it’s turning out to be a sweet gift so far! This is our first vacation as a couple… EVER! We still have lots of relaxing to do, so I’ll leave you with a slideshow of our trip so far, and a wedding post will follow. To see wedding photos asap, head over to Jessicas Blog to view her marvelous work. Thanks Jess!  Someday I hope to come back here to photoggraph a Weddin. Sacramento is nice, But a Cabo San Lucas Wedding  is nicer=)

Te Amo from Cabo,

Dave and Jenny Shilling =)
