I shot a wedding at Murietta’s Well Winery last year and it was amazing. This Wente property really impressed me. Upon arrival I found that many photo ops! They are even using one of my amazing wedding photos on their official website.

If you recall, this was the wedding of Christine and Sean. I took so many great wedding pictures that day and the bride and groom really enjoyed them. In fact, they even left me some rave reviews on various wedding websites. Click here for more information about the reviews they left for my wedding photographer here.

Sean and Christine at Murietta’s Well Winery

Sean and Christine are a great couple who really got me excited about working with them. They were enthusiastic from the get-go, and the E-pics session earlier in the year turned out spectacular. Their wedding reception was held at Murietta’s Well in Livermore, CA. I feel very lucky at being able to shoot a wedding at the Murietta’s Well. It is a great location to have your wedding and spacious enough to accomodate large wedding receptions. But before the reception obviously was the ceremony and even before that, the bridal prep session at the bride’s home in the very early morning hours.

Here’s a few of my very favorite wedding images from their special day starting with the aforementioned bridal prep or pre ceremony session.

The ceremony was held at the Church of the Assumption in San Leandro California. It was a great church to shoot a wedding. Not too much ambient light but just enough on the altar.

The reception was at a place called Murieta’s WELL Winery in Livermore

They were really looking forward to my edgy style, so I took it to the limit. I came away with some of my most stunning work.

This shot below will most likely become my new “MARQUEE SHOT”

I love this picture of the bride and groom running through the vineyards at Murietta’s Well Winery in Livermore, CA.

I am able to capture the mood and essence of your wedding in LOW LIGHT while still getting crystal clear images with little to no blur as I’m not dragging the shutter so much, in favor of using a higher ISO which the new digital cameras handle VERY WELL!

For the dancing, using a backlight can’t be beat. I always get great background in my images which makes them standout above the rest.

Keep in mind this is only the very best of Sean and Christine. I shot literally a thousand pictures. If you like what you see here, I would love the opportunity to show you more. So please contact me right away as my availability for 2009 is extremely limited.

Contact me if you want to see all of the journalistic wedding photography from this wedding. I can show you the cake cutting, garter and bouquet toss or any other shot.
