Wedding | Eric & Chesany

This wedding at Paso Robles Inn was supper fun. Eric and Chesany know how to have a good time. They did a great job creating a celebration deeply enjoyed by their friends and family. I had a wonderful time working with Chesany and her entourage of bridesmaids. The girls at Twist Studio Spa did a beautiful job getting the ladies ready. Eric and his group are a fun loving energetic bunch of guys. It was a pleasure spending a day with them. The beautiful setting at Paso Robles Inn made the day rememberable. Flowers by Denise did an expert job with the flowers . Her elegant floral set up was spectacular. The DJ Jeff Mora kept the energy and flow going late into the night.

Engagement | Nick & Erica

Nick and Erica are a supper fun couple to hang out with. Nick is a Firefighter and Erica is a Physician’s Assistant. We met at Sycamore Springs in Avila Beach for the session. Erica has a wonderful upbeat personality and is full of joy. I enjoyed watching her responses when I showed her the images from the back of my camera. Nick is a true, “man’s man.” He is building a Baja Bug from the ground up in his garage. These two are refreshingly playful together and I think it really comes through in the images. I can’t wait for their Malibu wedding, this summer.

Wedding | Kurt & Emily Bianchi Winery

Kurt and Emily are two of the most genuine and sincere people you can meet. Emily is full of energy, and Kurt is one of the coolest guys you can imagine. These two have the type of personality that made it a delight to work with and photographing their wedding made for a great weekend. They were married at the Bianchi Winery in Paso Robles, a beautiful outdoor setting that gave all the details of the wedding a special touch. Laura Robertson and Taryn Ruiz of TOS Events did an amazing job coordinating while Adornments Floral covered the day with a beautiful floral design. The Queen’s Bees made sure all the lady’s were looking their best. Epic Weddings created a tasty meal, while The Cakery made a cake that was both a feast to the eyes and to the palate. TOS Events also created the Candy Bar set up. Kramer Entertainment did an wonderful job with the music and setting the stage for the reception, Zack’s lighting set up was fabulous. This wedding was packed with so much; great energy, good friends, warm, sincere wedding vows, and all the details that made it an event to remember.

I hope you enjoyed the photos and would love to hear your comments.

    Melissa — So what do you get when you take 1 amazing couple like Emily and Kurt and put it together with a awesome photographer like William…. you get EXCEPTIONAL shots of their beyond special day! Great job William! We’d love some of the lighting pics to show our brides :-)

Wedding | Jeff & Ashley

Jeff and Ashley are such a great couple. My wife and I hit it off with them right away, it felt like we where hanging out with long time friends. They are such a calm and relaxed couple that really took the time to enjoy their wedding, and all the family surrounding them. They saw each other before the ceremony and it really helped them enjoy the day and prolong all the memories. If I am not mistaken this was the first time that Justin Winery set up a dinning room table in the tasting room. As you can see in the photos the long single table provided the perfect setting for this intimate evening reception. We had a great time with Jeff & Ashley and wished we lived closer to them.

    Ashley King — William, your photographs are spectacular! You have a wonderful way of putting people at ease, which helped us to get the most out of our big day. Thank you, too, for arranging that precious moment (and one of my favorite memories!) where I revealed my dress to Jeff. Love! You’ve got that unbeatable combo of an eye for composition and lighting and making your subjects feel like good friends. You are so ridiculously awesome!! Say hi to Rachel for us and we look forward to seeing you both when we’re up in your neck of the woods again.

    Ellie — Your pictures of Jeff and Ashley are very beautiful ( of course, you had two very photogenic people to work with – I’m prejudiced, I know). Again, the colors are very distinct and the settings you chose are beautiful.

    Sharon — The photos are gorgeous. The setting is spectacular – particularly the dining room with all the unique decorations. Love the flowers, too. The bride and groom look really relaxed and happy, not to mention beautiful – and that is a great compliment to the photographer and his ability to bring out the best in his subjects.

    Jeff King — Hey William, I love the pics you posted. Actually I loved all of the pics you took. I can’t tell you how often Ashley and I go back to the pictures of the wedding and re-live it over and over again. And that’s because of the amazing way in which you captured our moment. I can’t thank you enough and I totally concur with what you said in your write up. From the moment we all met at our engagement photo session (which was fantastic as well, and thankyou for suggesting and taking us to that breathtaking location) I felt that we we long time friends. I wish we lived closer as well because if we did you would have a constant surf buddy. We will definitely let you know when we are up in your area again, which should be in April. Say hello to Rachel and talk to you soon.

    admin — Ellie thanks so much yes I did have a beautiful and very fun couple to work with. They made it so easy!

    Sarah — The pictures turned out beautiful! The setting was amazing and the way you incorporated the natural elements in the photos was truly amazing. It’s easy to look at the photos and immediately go back to the special weekend that we all shared with Ashley and Jeff. The pictures you posted really told a complete story of the special event and I love all of the details you captured!

Tiber Canyon Ranch Wedding | Steve & Kristina

Steve and Kristina are an ultra cool couple, they are stylish, fun, and casual. I first met this couple in Avila Beach for our engagement session. Rachel and I had a great time hanging out with them this summer on the Central Coast. In keeping with their easy going yet dynamic personalities, we had this fun day session at the beach. Kristina was one of my most enthusiastic brides this summer, she would make my day with her email replies of how much she loves her engagement and wedding photos.

Tiber Canyon Ranch was a gorgeous setting for their wedding, with the Manzanita trees, and log cabin bridal suite. The flowers looked great and were a DIY project. I had a great time with their family and friends. They have a lot of college friends that now live all over the world, but they still manage to keep their connections strong. Kristina was a calm bride while getting ready and during the ceremony. When it came time for her photos with Steve however, all she wanted to do was get to the reception. Sean from AMS Entertainment was playing some great music, and she didn’t want to miss out on her party. I was amused and worked quickly. McGees Catering did an amazing job with the food, and Laura Harrison, a professional organizer in the Bay Area, was a delight to work with. The wedding cake was Carly Stone’s first wedding creation and a smashing success. I hope you enjoy these photos as much as I did creating them.

    Joanne — How fun to be added to the day’s festivities. Lovely setting and bride. Thanks for sharing!

    Necia- UmbrellaTreeDesign — Great job William! I love all the details shots and the brides dress is beautiful, it is so unique. I also love the cotton candy station, how fun!

    Melissa Jean — Love her hair! She is so gorgeous! Great shots here!

RANCHO DEL CIELO, MALIBU Wedding | Mike & Chris

I had such a great time on the bluffs of Malibu with this couple. The setting at Rancho del Cielo is just breathtaking, and perfect for Mike & Chris’s California wedding. They saw each other before the ceremony, and it made for such a relaxing time to stroll along the estate. They both have really sweet, and caring personalities, and are so compassionate with each other. They are truly a great couple to spend time with. I also had the pleasure of working with some amazing venders from Southern California. Susie Chhuor made the ladies hair, and makeup look wonderful. Fleuretica did an amazing job with the flowers. DJ California Catering served up some tasty food, and Cathy’s Bakery made a delicious cake. VOX DJs was great with keeping this group dancing all night, and Buckley Videography shot the video and were great to work with.

    Chloe Murdoch — Beautiful work William! I was soooo excited to see this post wonderful job!
