Today marks our 100th elopement post on our blog! We love the variety of shooting weddings and elopements and thank all the couples who entrust us to document such an important day in their lives . This elopement was at Churchill Manor in Napa.

Bride and her parents.

I like the inquisitive expression in this casual portrait of this little girl at the wedding.

Ceremony by the fountain performed by Capt. Kevin Trazinski of Vineyard Vows.

Music by Charlotte the harpist played softly at key moments during the ceremony, which added a lot of ambience.

A gentle breeze made this happy shot possible . . . and being ready for it. : )


A pat on the shoulder congratulating the groom.



Best wishes!

The venue they chose for their wedding was MacArthur Place Inn and Spa in Sonoma. This is a great place for a wedding celebration!

The details on the grounds are original and abundant.

Chairs at ceremony site adorned with flowers on isle seats. Day-of wedding coordination by Pronupto in the Napa Valley.

The bride’s gown had cap sleeves, which I loved.
