Mendocino Wine Country Wedding at the MacCallum House

Julie and Jerrad’s Destination wedding from Texas.

“Having planned our wedding from thousands of miles away, it was a relief to find Joyce and Randy – two amazing, professional, responsive and kind artists.  They seemed to capture every single moment from start to finish of our special day.  There were even some moments they preserved that I saw for the first time through their photos.  Their photography is elegant, artistic, striking, meaningful and, most of all, so thoughtful.  I felt as if my husband and I made two friends for life and those special people were our magical shadows on our wedding day, making sure to capture memories for us to last a lifetime.  I could not have asked for more.” —Julie and Jerrad

Because the bride and her family are huge animal lovers, they chose the pets of some guests, named the tables after them and had table names handpainted from a photo of the pet.  It’s was surprise that people loved!  And they get to take their paintings home.

Mendocino Wine Country wedding in May at Albion River Inn

A May wedding. Stephanie and Tyler at the Albion River Inn.

“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.”
