Kenwood Farms and Gardens, Kenwood, California
Rich and Audrey…Bubbly, brimming with comical creativity, and so meant for each other! This fall wedding at Kenwood Farms and Gardens was initially going to just be a shadowing opportunity for me to learn from Rebecca, but it morphed into me sort of second shooting…then slowly photographing more as the day progressed! It was honestly too fun not to! I loved the little surprises throughout the day. Audrey had sketched a portrait of Rich in a journal she gave him that documented their journey together so far. Rich commissioned a portrait from one of their favorite artists that included a rendering of her dress that was surprisingly accurate - despite Rich never having seen the dress until the wedding day! As I captured some reactions of Audrey during the reception, a troupe of dancers surprised Audrey with a choreographed flash mob! It was one of the most amazing things I’ve ever seen at a wedding - definitely viral internet video status! Rebecca and I ended up staying past our shooting time to join the party and dance until our feet hurt. It was a truly fantastic day!
