During our amazing weekend in the San Francisco, CA Bay Area, we were privileged to shoot the wedding of John & Kellie at the Marines’ Memorial Hotel. We had a great time with the entire wedding party, as we ran around the city using the unique and beautiful architecture and sites of San Francisco as our playground.
We should also mention that John and Kellie are both in the Air Force, so we had a military ceremony complete with an honor guard and everything. It was quite a unique ceremony, and afterwards we were able to take the entire crew out into the streets to get some sweet shots with a San Francisco feel.
Anyway, congratulations, thank you all so much for the great time, and we hope you enjoy the images!
