We are expecting!!!

preggo-blog-post Well, Robyn is anyway. Maria recently started using the hash-tag #veritespawn when posting cute pictures of our kiddos on instagram, and I decided, "What better way to celebrate such clever hash-tagging than by making another kiddo to tag"! So there you have it! The Robyn half of Verité is pregnant! We will officially have two Verité spawn each come December!

Btw, if this makes you have reservations about hiring us for your wedding between now and then, don't! The belly just makes my photography that much better!

Hurray for Verité Spawn!!

Robyn and Maria

Ariel and Jonathan at Point Reyes Seashore Lodge

I loved so many things about this wedding! The venue, the weather, the design, the music, and especially the bride and groom! Ariel and Jonathan didn't follow the rules at all- dancing during the daylight, no garter/bouquet toss, pies instead of cake. They really just had such a fun and laid-back party. And I love Jonathan's obsession with bow ties; he personally made sure each and every one of them there was tied perfectly! (You may recall from their Engagement Session that Jonathan and his grandfather are bow tie professionals!). Anyway, these two are pretty darn adorable and their wedding was pretty darn great.

 

The really really really good team for this wedding: Event Coordinator- Sugar Rush Events Venue- Point Reyes Seashore Lodge Florist- The Flower House Caterer- Melons Catering Dessert- Green Chili Pies Makeup and Hair- Sherrie Long The Band- Kugelplex Rentals- Wine Country Rentals Officiant- Rabbi Micah Hyman Second Shooter- the lovely Natalie Eidelman

Rich and Annie- In Love

These guys have been married for 10 years and look at the way they still look at each other! They spent some quiet little moments together on this sunny afternoon in their little town of Sunol. They've got a wee one coming soon, so their sunny afternoons may be a little less quiet from here on out :) Good thing they got this one in the books!

Maria and I are so in love with this session- Beautiful light + True love make us some happy photographers!

Tatyana and Casey at Cornerstone Gardens

This wedding had so many great moments, but I'd have to say my favorite was during the Maid of Honor's speech when she pulled up some old g-chats between her and Tatyana from back when Tatyana was first "totally crushing on this guy Casey"! Oh man, I kinda died a little bit; so funny! So here we are, after many years of law school, some trips to Russia, and many hours of reading Lord of the Rings to each other- they are still totally crushing on each other, and we got to be there when they made it official!

(I should note here that the Best Man's speech also made me laugh out loud. Being married to a Blizzard nerd myself, I got an odd little rush of pride (?or something?) when he told everyone that Casey asked him to be his best man via Starcraft-- imagine one space alien typing to the other, "wanna be my best man?" while zerging his Terran siege tanks).

Chris and Matt's Backyard Wedding

A Doctor + A Scientist = A really smart Love.These two met on the water ski team their first year in college, and have been by each others side through their many many (many) years of school since! They live in Minnesota but came out to California to get married at Chris's parent's house (where her dad built an entire deck so guests could sit on top of the pool!)
