Wild turkeys, deer, cattle, a garden snake, and gophers all stopped by to help celebrate Lisa and David’s wedding at the beautiful old hacienda, Rancho San Carlos. The amazing band had the whole room dancing all night, and even had the groom join for “Layla” and the bride and groom on stage for “Old Time Rock and Roll.”

“We knew from the minute we saw the pictures on their website that we wanted to work with Joyce and Randy. We were really interested in having a lot of candid pictures from our wedding day and for Joyce and Randy, this is their forte. From the moment we met them, we instantly felt at ease with them. They were very professional. We had such a fun time on our engagement shoot, and the pictures from that day are unbelievable. They really captured our personalities and caught so many intimate moments. The day of the wedding they felt even more like close friends, helping us through the day, staying by our sides to capture all the special moments between the two of us without intruding on our privacy. When we received our wedding pictures, we really couldn’t believe how beautiful they were. Looking at their pictures was like reading a story of all the wonderful moments that occurred that day. They were able to really capture the true essence of our special day.”

As fine art photojournalists, we approached Barbara and Darin’s wedding with a vision that honored the unmanipulated, unposed style of the great masters of photography. Turning many of the photos to black and white enhanced this feel. The Flood Mansion is a spectacular venue in which we were able to capture the intimate moments of their special day, in an historic facility overlooking S.F. and the bay.
