There are so many beautiful moments of love and connection that happen throughout every wedding weekend. These are often subtle expressions that almost no one else makes note of in that moment. They happen and then slip quietly into the past. But to a photo storyteller - these are the moments we live to document and preserve. These are the images that bring back all the feels : )

Gina and Mark-Anthony’s wedding at the incredible @seventhplace in Los Angeles. The wedding celebration was a musical masterpiece (with most of Gina’s family being professional musicians) and a fabulous celebration of community and love. @ginacl @silvercharm_events @milleniumbiltmore for getting ready.

Listening to vinyl records in the Haight. All part of an incredible photo adventure with Sarah and Allen around San Francisco following their SF City Hall wedding ceremony. @flybykitty @allenmasuda

A lovely note from Sarah & Allen:
-
“DREW!!!! Thank you for the incredible experience. Our photo adventure was everything we imagined and the results are even more! You captured so many special moments. I can’t believe how many timeless, precious photos you captured. I think you got more great photos of us in one day than we have total from 14 years together. Thank you for your patience with us, your dope-ass photo expertise, the optimal professionalism and personal attention you gave us and your beautiful spirit to guide us through our special day. Thank you from the deepest depths of our hearts eternally. We are looking forward to our new friendship with you for years to come. And hopefully catching a live show over drinks with you and your Sweet Lady sometime soon! With gratitude and love, Sarah and Allen"
