A Sonoma Destination Wedding, Nicole + Dave

May-17-13  |  Weddings








































I adore everything about shooting in California; the beautiful landscapes, the stunning outdoor venues, the farm fresh food, the vineyards and their wine, and of course the light... oh how I love the California light! Nicole and Dave are Manhattan natives (see their New York engagement session here) who share my affection for California wine country. They chose to celebrate their marriage with a destination wedding at small estate vineyard on the edge of Sonoma. It was an effortlessly beautiful and intimate event that we were honored to capture...

Behind the Scenes

May-14-13  |  Personal
Chad Keffer of KT Merry Photography
Every so often it's fun to turn the camera around and share a glimpse of what goes on behind the scenes.  
As you may or may not know, my husband Chad and I work together as a team for all of our weddings and shoots. We are business partners, travel buddies, fellow photographers and of course; husband and wife! While day to day Chad is our office manager, when it comes to shooting he works as an assistant and second shooter and sometimes even more. I'm pretty sure in this photo Chad was not only carrying cameras, but also rolling and cataloging film, holding the couple's bag, and blocking traffic all while riding the couple's prop bicycle... needless to say, I definitely couldn't do it without him!
