Alex and Rich's Engagement Photos, Piedmont Community Hall

Alex and Rich came from LA and Austin, respectively, for their engagement session in Piedmont. Alex and I have been talking and emailing all the time about the details for their upcoming wedding in Yountville, and I had met her in person once before, but this was my first time meeting Rich, so I was really excited. He was great, and, as you can see, they are a perfect match for each other! They really complement each other well...





I loved Alex's dress and pretty pale pink painted nails, as well as Rich's very hip Texan outfit and shoes!









We shot these in Rich's brother's backyard, then moved on to the Piedmont Community Hall, a lovely venue that is usually booked up with weddings on the weekends (and was when we were there, 7/28/07, also), but which has big lawn areas and playgrounds that are still public, right in the middle of Piedmont. It's a lovely and mellow place to photograph a wedding - I shot there waaaay back in the summer of 2004!





I have lots more to say about my excitement in working with these two and the wonderful details and fun that they have planned for their gorgeous wedding at the Villagio in Yountville, but I don't want to give anything away, so I'm going to wait until after their wedding day!



I've gotten rave reviews from Alex and Rich (and their families!) from last weekend's engagement session, and I'm so touched that they love their photos. I cannot wait to photograph the wedding! I know it's going to be such a blast : )
