Some couples and some weddings inspire feelings of romance, and some inspire feelings of I-wish-they-were-my-friends-in-real-life. Tamar and Fred’s wedding did both. When I first met them, I couldn’t believe how relaxed they were. They never elevated to an even slightly stressed level, and if anything, relaxed more into the day. She strolled through the redwoods barefoot, not caring that her dress was catching on pine needles and he smiled and went along with river wading, tree stump climbing and dancing in the forest.

Music:

Hans Zimmer: You’re So Cool

Grateful Dead: Sugar Magnolia and Not Fade Away

All in all, I had an amazing time filming their wedding and hanging out with Tamar and Fred’s friends and family.

It didn’t hurt that I got to work with an amazing team of vendors, including my BFF Evynn LeValley. Her gorgeous photos are below.
