katherine and paul, montecito, ca
venue: san ysidro ranch
dress: mrs. zoepf’s very own handmade bridal gown
i’m falling in love with these intimate weddings i have had the luck to shoot a bunch of lately. katherine and paul’s was no exception. I love the unique opportunity tiny weddings present to photograph every guest.
katherine is a freelance journalist who has spent a good amount of time in the middle east writing for such agencies as the new york times, the international herald tribune and the new york times magazine and working with some of the best photojournalists in the world.
she was very clear she had very little interest in shots of her dress hanging, her shoes shot at 1.4, or even the rings. her day was about not about details, it was about the sacred commitment her and paul were making to eachother that gorgeous saturday and celebrating with family and friends. she and paul both have wonderful families. i was so honored to document these few hours. thank you katherine and paul for putting it all back into perspective for me.

















We love your work, Jen–thank you so much again for making the time to shoot our wedding at such short notice! Paul and I have been looking through your beautiful photos and can’t stop talking about what a wonderful job you did. You drew everyone out so well–and this was a famously camera-shy crowd! Thank you so much again.
oh wow Rau. You did it again. Amazing! What artistic & beautiful shots!

blessed. merriment. joy. devotion.
sarah babysat for us for years. it was an honor and joy to capture her and eric’s wedding at hartley botanica. we love her and eric very much.









i love this sweet pic of fox

right before he makes his big move and cuts in



Okay, the first picture should be an album cover so Eric needs to start a band. The one of Sarah dancing by herself is priceless. The look on her face is amazing. I want to get married (again) so I can do this all over!
Well, generally I love shots that are timeless, and could have happened in any time period. While I seen many shots of someone taking a picture, the shot of the iphone is a whole new twist and it is priceless. That is one outstanding job.
Love the album cover comment! It could be called “The Very White Band”. The pictures are incredibly beautiful and can’t decide which is my favorite, though the bridesmaids jumping is so much fun. In the shots of Sarah and Eric, you get the sense that they were really looking forward to that honeymoon. “Get a room” would be an understatement. LOVE YOU GUYS!!!
great images Jen!
