Kimmy + Paul: San Francisco Wedding Photography at Fort Mason + Potrero Hill Neighborhood House, Pt. 2

Bowerbird Photography January 28, 2015

After their wedding ceremony at the Fort Mason Chapel, Kimmy + Paul took a walk through the green fields and surrounding gardens, where we got to take some romantic just-married couples photos :) We loved being able to capture their giddiness, as they relished in the emotions of so much love and happiness.

When the sun finally set, they were whisked off in a limo to their wedding reception at the Potrero Hill Neighborhood House, for dinner and dancing.

Congratulations Kimmy + Paul! We're thrilled you two are married! This year is going to be amazing!

Kimmy + Paul: San Francisco Wedding Photography at Fort Mason Chapel, Pt. 1

Bowerbird Photography January 26, 2015

We arrived at Kimmy + Paul's apartment just before the bride put on her wedding dress. Kimmy had mentioned that they had an awesome view from their apartment and we were excited when the bride hopped onto the roof, for some urban bridal shots with sweeping views of downtown San Francisco in the background!

Kimmy + Paul had a touching wedding ceremony at the Fort Mason Chapel, officiated by the groom's father, who filled the celebration with wonderful stories, including how the two love birds met through a match-maker aunt and friend. From the way Kimmy + Paul looked into each other's eyes throughout the ceremony, one can tell that that is what smitten looks like.

Here's a peek into their wedding prep and ceremony. We're thrilled for Kimmy + Paul and can't wait to share more photos from their wedding reception on Potrero Hill very soon :)

Jessica + Simon: Wedding Photography at the Carneros Inn in Napa, Pt. 1

Bowerbird Photography November 28, 2014

Jessica + Simon got married five years ago, in a civil ceremony. It was intimate and special, but they wanted to do something a little more to celebrate their marriage, pulling out all the stops! They decided to have a wedding encore, with all the beautiful details, the cake and the dance moves! They also now have an adorable son, Issac, who was the best man (soooo CUTE!). They held their big day at the gorgeous Carneros Inn in Napa, on a stunning November day. A friend of theirs officiated the ceremony, taking place in an apple orchard, with a dreamy vista of the golden Napa Valley hills in the background.

We've had a great time getting to know Jessica + Simon and have become dear friends. We love how the smiles + laughter they share together is totally infectious! They really beam like two bright lights and have made the most wonderful family together :)

Here's a peek at their wedding prep and ceremony. Check back soon for more photos from the wedding reception!

Congratulations Jessica + Simon!!!!!

Meredith + Andrew: Wedding Photography at the InterContinental Mark Hopkins San Francisco, Pt. 2

Bowerbird Photography November 5, 2014

After Meredith + Andrew's wonderful wedding ceremony at the Mark Hopkins Hotel in San Francisco, it was time to get down and party! One of our favorite aspects of Jewish wedding ceremonies is the hora dance. Guests line up and then link arms to create rotating dance circles around the bride and groom, who are lifted into the air on chairs (note their "roller-coaster faces!"). It's extremely energetic, playful and definitely make fun photos :) M + A totally embraced the whole evening, getting swept up in the wonderful spirit of love and jubilation.

A very happy marriage to this wonderful couple! Mazel tov and best wishes Meredith + Andrew!!
