Luke & Lucy // A Berkeley engagement session ft. Joaquin Miller Park

When I met up with Luke and Lucy in Berkeley the rain had been falling all morning. We had hopes of everything dying down but as we trudged through the forest the drops just kept getting larger. Breaks in the canopy overhead brought downpours as the trail became a stream, water ran over our boots as we were drenched. It made for some pretty dope pictures though.

Kendra & Jordan // A Berkeley Wedding ft. The Brazilian Room & The University of California Botanical Garden

As Jordan read his vows during the ceremony there was a moment, on the quiet hilltop in Berkeley, that he was drowned out by motorcycles passing by below. At first he tried to power through it but the attempt didn’t last long. His parents, respectfully sitting in silence moments before, burst out laughing. The crowd joined in. Life doesn’t care about your plans, and that’s what makes this whole thing enjoyable. Here are a few snips from that day in the beginning of November, at the beautiful Brazilian Room.
