Love and anticipation. Rizzariz, second shooter for Candid Moments Weddings.

I’ve always thought Valentine’s Day was a little silly. Why should ONE day out of the year stand out above the rest? I think you should always find any reason or no reason at all to appreciate your loved ones. In the meantime….

While rummaging through photos to update on my website, I found this photo of Inez + Richard. I can’t imagine how I overlooked this image. It is beautiful (not by any technical means), but it really captured a moment, locked between time and space, where the only other person in existence for this groom was his bride. Rr.

What love truly looks like…

Mike + Rhea: your love is something one can only hope to have. I am so glad you found each other in this lifetime. Your special day can’t come soon enough. Cheers, love and mud, Rr.

If this gal looks familiar to you its because I photographed her twin sister’s wedding (Jasmine) in April 2009. It’s like deja vu, meaning twice the fun! Speaking of fun, Jenilee, PJ and I spent an afternoon of it at Santana Row in San Jose, an urban shopping development for the uber stylish, fabulous and serious masters of style. But the scenery that is takes a backseat in contrast to how smitten Jenilee + PJ are with each other. Its so stinkin cute to see how PJ admires Jenilee, and just as much to see Jenilee’s eyes light up just being around him.

Jenilee + PJ: Cheers to two people in love! August can’t come soon enough! It has been my honor! To love and an everlasting supply of Kara’s Cupcakes!

Boy it’s been quite a weekend between getting kicked out of Santana Row and being asked not to take pictures and slip sliding down a hill with all my gear in tow! All things aside I would say it was fun and added a little spice to my routine. Nonetheless my couples were SUCH great sports despite the interruptions. For now here is a sneak peak of what is in store this week:

Jenilee + PJ

My first muddy mishap while shooting an engagement session early AM at the Palace of Fine Arts in SF. Thankfully I chose to bring my basic shoot sac cover. It was fun being covered in mud from head to toe, well, not entirely but almost. Serves me right for laughing at the guy who tripped over himself running after his dog. You win karma, you win!
