Can't get enough of Sasha?



That's what her fans say. Even Heidi! So what is Sasha up to these days? Well, besides her glamorous life as a wedding planner/designer, she also has a beautiful baby. A very cute baby boy! Brook went up to Napa on Friday and shot some baby-family pics for the Souza, hung out, and got some chow. He had a wedding to photograph at Beaulieu Gardens (BV Winery)on Saturday, while I photographed a wedding at a private home in the hills of Corrolitos. Both fun and beautiful! I speak for the both of us. Hope you all had a great weekend, cuz' we did!

True Wedded Bliss!


Last Friday we attended a wedding(as REAL guests) of our friend, Kristin. Kristin's company is Bliss* Video Productions, whom we've mentioned before. This very creative & talented girl had a beautiful wedding at Nestledown. As did Nicholas Cage. But they didn't marry each other. Nicholas Cage was a few years back. And he forgot to send us an invite. Back to Kristin-she looked gorgeous! The wedding was whimsical & enchanting. And we tried to remain guests. With our baby, Giada, I literally had my hands full. Brook managed to take a few images. Honestly, I wanted to jump up and photograph the entire thing! It drove me a little crazy. However, we had a great time visiting with our friends, Sasha Souza & Melyssa and their hubbies. And our little Giada enjoyed the wedding as well.
We've had the pleasure of photographing weddings with Sasha Souza, wedding planner extraordinaire, and Kristin of Bliss*, in Mexico as well as the Bahamas! Good times in Cabo: Rambo at The Office, 22 seconds, and dare I say, karaoke. Kristin does a rockin' Pat Benatar. Bahamas were also good times...

By the way, you must check out Sasha's Blog ~ Spakliatti. Love, love, love it!

Here's to wedded bliss!

Our baby is already 11 months old!


Giada is play-talking on Sasha's cell..

Giada is introduced to Sasha's garden gnome, Miss Gnomer. Sasha invited her gnome because - what's a party without a gnome? Giada immediately took a liking to her and gave Miss Gnomer several kisses!
