Last month I was asked by WIPA to photograph their quarterly meeting which was held at Casa Real. I was really excited about the opportunity, as I had not been to Casa Real before and Dianna & Andrew’s wedding will be held there next month. Let me tell you, that place is GORGEOUS!!!  I’m really excited to photograph a wedding there next month, working with the always calm under pressure Jean Marks. The WIPA event was a real treat as the topic for the month was green weddings, and it was inspiring to hear how progressive the Bay Area wedding industry is. Many of the attendees had already taken steps to move towards greener business practices or were very interested in learning more about the options. Being more green is definitely something that we as a company strive towards.

The sky and clouds were amazing that day, and I love the water fountain out front. The entire place had a very warm yet polished feel to it.
