and here are two reasons why....Dyllan is 7 years old now and about to finish up his first grade year and Jacob just turned 5 years old and will be starting kindergarten next year!                 My adorable nephews are growing up so fast.  It was pulling teeth to get them to take this picture, and after the session (fondly looking back) that's my favorite part.
Enjoy life!
Anna

  In true destination wedding fashion Kaycee and I begged (didn't take to much arm twisting) Noele and Eric to do a day after shoot.  I mean we were in Hawaii for crying out loud.  We both wanted to get a different feel from wedding day (check out the wedding images on the post below)  and we found this amazing little area close to the hotel.  We ventured all over pleasing both visions Kaycee and I had.    We had photographed so much by the water already on the wedding day so we were really excited to give them some fun variety.  We love doing a day after shoot because the images are much more relaxed and we really get to have some fun.  If you have not booked your Avant Garde shoot, please do so by calling the studio.
Here are some of my images from the day.

Kaycee and I met Noele and Eric three years ago at Marco and Loren's beautiful wedding in Napa Valley, CA.  Noele was the maid of honor and then just dating Eric.  One of the things Kaycee and I love about destination weddings is spending so much time with the entire wedding party.  Photographing all the little events that make the weekend so special really bonds you with the group.  Noele knew instantly after that weekend that she wanted Kaycee and I to photograph her wedding to Eric we finally had the honor to do so this past February in beautiful Maui, Hawaii.  The wedding took place at a beautiful ocean front plantation and the weather was perfect.  Noele and Eric are the sweetest couple and it is pretty evident in their first meet down the isle.   This crew (all traveled from Seattle, WA) really know how to spend some time on the dance floor and after dinner there wasn't one person sitting down.  Kaycee and I even got out on the dance floor.  We are so lucky to have clients that are also our friends and Noele you and Eric are great friends.  We wish you so much happiness.
Hugs,
Anna and Kaycee

My dear friends Leila and Seth had a great Gatsby themed engagement party a few weeks ago and I not only got to attend this very small affair, but got to dress up and enjoy the festivities.  A small group of friends gathered at a gorgeous ranch south of San Antonio, TX for dancing, champagne cocktails and a bit of croquet.  Leila and Seth have taken this garden, Gatsby party theme all the way to their wedding day which was this last Saturday.  Pictures to follow, but for now please enjoy these fun images.

Marina and Brian had a small destination wedding in Telluride, Colorado this winter.  A very intimate group of family and friends came all the way from San Francisco, CA for a week full of skiing and wedding festivities.  I couldn't think of a better way to spend a winter vacation.  I love the mood of a winter wedding and this one pulled out all the stops.  A pre-wedding party complete with hot cocoa and a sled ride up the mountain to the Gorrono Ranch where the wedding ceremony was.   Inside the scene was set with a crackling fire and candles everywhere.  The tables were dripping with flowers and silver and the food, well was nothing short of amazing.  These Californians loved to party and the dance floor was always full thanks to the amazing DJ Harry and a western themed photo booth rounded out the evening.
Thank you to Marina and Brian for an amazing evening ( I can't say that I have ever taken a snow cat down the mountain at the end of a wedding night before).
We wish you the happiest of years to come.
Anna and Kaycee
