Images from a sample wedding

This is a wedding I photographed for Amanda & Josh at the David Girard Vineyards in the Sierra foothills outside of Placerville, CA.
From Amanda after she saw the photos:
These are amazing! Thank you SO much for placing your website in a place where I could randomly Google "Sacramento photographers" and end up with you as my wedding photographer! This whole thing kind of fell into place, and turned out perfectly.
Truly, these photos capture the joy, laughter and love of the entire day. I can't thank you enough. And you are just a great person - fun to joke around with and just relaxed enough to send out that positive vibe to everyone around. Not to mention your rapid turn around time... unbeatable! Glad to have met you, John.
Ok, now I think I'm going to spend the next 5 hours scrolling through everything... again and again and again.
