Jenn and Brian flew in from Chicago and eloped at San Francisco City Hall in a beautiful and intimate ceremony. I had such a great time taking these pics and I was even the witness for the marriage license which was a first for me! Following the ceremony I took them around the city to some of my favorite locations taking pictures at Blue Bottle Coffee and outside the Presidio among other locations. Also, I have to give a big thank you to Mary Lois of Loop Flowers who we called the day of and she put together an absolutely stunning bouquet and boutonnière. Thank you so much Jenn and Brian for having me shoot your wedding!
June Partridge:
Great photos Joel! Love it! Reminds me a lot of my husband and I's elopement to NYC a couple of years ago... in my humble opinion, it's the best way to get married :)

So I just got back and I am downloading and backing up today's wedding but I thought I would share just a few pics from today's wedding as it was a beautiful one at Nestldown. Sarah was stunning in both outfits and the flowers by Lani Elizabeth were exquisite. It was great to work with Liz of San Jose Wedding Consultants and Paul of Big Fun Disc Jockeys. Enjoy the pics and I will be sure to post the rest on our new site!

Adrienne and Jake's amazing wedding that I posted yesterday was just featured on Snippet and Ink's blog. It is such an honor to have photos that we have taken featured on Snippet and Ink's blog as we look to her blog daily for inspiration and it is always on our list of recommended resources for our clients. I know that Adrienne personally used Snippet and Ink as her main source of inspiration with all of the details of the wedding. Thank you so much Kathryn for posting these photos! If you haven't already, be sure to check out her blog.

We shot such an amazing wedding this summer at the Headlands Center for the Arts. Adrienne, the bride, was also the wedding planner for her big day. She did a knock-out job on crafting the vision for her wedding, and executing it to a T. We kept telling her all day, "You should TOTALLY do this for a living! You are GREAT at it." Check out all of the amazing details that her and her mom put together! I also have to mention the flowers done by Chestnut & Vine in Berkeley and the delicious cupcakes by La Farine Bakery in Oakland. Seriously, I know there are a ton of pics in this post but I just had to share them all with you. Thank you for letting us be a part of your big day Adrienne and Jake! PS. If you aren't a fan of us on Facebook, what are you waiting for! an invitation? Ok, here is your invite. Also, be sure to follow us on Twitter @floryphoto.
PPS. Katie Powers officially rocks our socks off. Her food is so scrumptious I can hardly stand it. She is the exclusive caterer for the Headlands Center, so in order to taste her yummy food you're going to have to either A. book your wedding there or B. become friends with someone who is getting married there. But seriously, it is SO worth it.
Adrienne Schell:

Liz Potter:
What a gorgeous wedding, the details could not be more striking or inspirational. The light, the colors, the way it was captured. Amazing, from top to bottom. I think whomever designed this wedding needs to be working for magazines as a stylist. Perfection.

I hope you enjoy these photos from Jon and Sam's stunning wedding at the Four Season's Hotel in San Francisco. This amazing event was coordinated by Lea Mathewson and Natalie Alvanez of Simply Sparkling Events. As always it was such a treat to work with them and we can't wait for our next event together. It was also our first time working with the amazing Nicole Ha and let me tell you, the flowers were off the hook and she did an absolutely stunning job. Another great highlight as seen in the pics below were the cupcakes from That Takes the Cake, de-licious. Also we must make special note of the ridiculous Enhanced Lighting Company. MOST INCREDIBLE CHUPPAH EVER! Seriously, it was AMAZING. Lighting isn't generally something we walk away from a wedding thinking "we must blog about that!" But Enhanced Lighting Co. really did such an amazing job! Check them out if you have any custom lighting needs. Thank you Jon and Sam for letting us be a part of your special day!!! You guys are SO FANTASTIC!!!! One last thing, if you are on twitter, follow us @floryphoto.
Nicole Ha:
These photos are amazing! You totally captured Jon and Sam's personality. What a fun couple! I can't wait to work with you guys again.

Lea Mathewson:

(09.15.09 @ 10:09 AM)
Sam Wolff:
Thank you so much, Joel and Cara, for such wonderful memories of the wedding! You truly captured every emotion and every moment beautifully! We could not have asked for a better day. You guys were just the best to work with! Thanks again - you went above and beyond.

This might be long one so be sure to grab a cup of coffee or tea before reading. If you haven't already, when you are done reading this post be sure to check out Matt and Emily's photos from the other festivities at their destination wedding in Cabo Mexico. Cara, Ingrid and I had such a great time at their wedding and thoroughly enjoyed getting to meet all of their family and friends. Again we can't say enough of how great the Cabo Surf Hotel was for a wedding. Enjoy the photos!
Joel Flory:
thanks bro.

I am finally getting to blogging Matt and Emily's amazing destination
wedding just north of Cabo. They held their amazing wedding at the Cabo Surf Hotel
and I would highly recommend it as a great location for a destination
wedding as the beach there at their property is amazing as well as the
hotel, spa, food and staff. In this first part of blogging their
wedding there are pictures from the guy's golf outing at Club Campestre San Jose
and then the ladies brunch and spa time followed by the rehearsal and
lastly the rehearsal dinner at Dante's Bar & Grill. Enjoy these
pics and be sure to come back tomorrow when I will blog their wedding
day.

All I can say is what a wedding. Matt and Julie have to be some of our favorite clients of all time. Matt owns a shoe store in Alameda, The District and Julie planned the whole wedding by herself. It was the first ever wedding at the new Yoshi's Jazz Club in SF and it was amazing. Every detail of the wedding from the cake to the table settings and their custom logo designed by Passing Notes was spot on. Here are a few picks from the night and I will be sure to post more when I am done editing the wedding. Also, below is their highlights video and first dance video put together by Curtis Nemetz Productions which is hands down my favorite videographer to work with. Curtis and Travis are the best team and we love shooting weddings with them. To round out the amazing day Jon of Encarnacion Photography shot with me and as always his work was amazing. Again stay posted for more from their wedding along with all of the details.

We had the pleasure of photographing Arturo and Melissa's wedding this past summer and now that we have a blog, I thought it would be a great thing to post some images from their amazing wedding in Yosemite Valley. The day was perfect with early thunderstorms and then amazing cloud cover. The whole day was an intimate celebration of their love with their family and friends and Cara and I felt honored to have been able to photograph their wedding. As always it was great to work with Curtis and Travis of Curtis Nemetz Productions as they are one of the few videographers that push us to try new things and I always feel like we feed off of each other's creativity. I also have to add that if you are thinking of getting married in or near Yosemite you have to contact Natalie with Simply that Flowers and Carol with Bellissimo Brides as this was our third wedding working with them and they always do an amazing job. Ceremony: Sentinel Beach, Yosemite
Reception: Wawona Hotel, Yosemite
Videographer: Curtis Nemetz Productions
Florist: Simply That Flowers
Hair & Makeup: Bellissimo Brides
Musicians: Sierra Entertainment
Cake: Sweet Dreams Cakery
DJ: Sierra DJ
Jackie Clemonds:
WOW! Those are STUNNING images. Beautiful. Must have been an amazing venue for a wedding! We haven't been to Yosemite yet at all, but these images sure make me want to go all the more! Also love the cute iPhone image. :)

Looking at your wedding photos makes me want to get remarried again! So when Jonathan and I have our 10 year anniversary. Will you be our photographers again?

My goodness! These are amazing photos as always. How I wish I could travel out to Yosemite for something like this! Great job!

I posted some images the day after their wedding a couple of weeks ago and since then everyone has been emailing wanting to see more. Well here they are. I do have to warn you though as there are a ton of photos because I had such a hard time narrowing down my favorites. Loralie and Kevin are such an amazing couple and Cara and I had such a blast photographing their wedding. Kathryn of Dream a Little Dream Events did such a great job planning the wedding that even when we were hit with a little rain, things went off without a hitch. As always Natalie Bowen provided flowers that were simply stunning. Loralie and Kevin got ready at Hotel Vitale and then we headed down to the ferry building and they had some wine and oysters at the Hog Island Osyter Company. They had an amazing roof top ceremony at the Art Institute and then an intimate dinner reception at Florio.Here is what Loralie wrote when she got home after the wedding:
Are you kidding me???
Thank YOU for photographing our wedding. We got back to Indy last night, had dinner and sat down and reviewed the slide show together. It is so perfect I don't have words. We have so many favorite pics from your slide show, we couldn't narrow down to our favorite. Kevin and I couldn't stop talking on Sunday about how great you, Cara, Kathryn and Natalie are to work with. You are seriously a dream team!
And we had dinner at La Mar on Sunday night with friends. So fabulous. Great recommendation!

And here is what Loralie had to say about the dress: You asked about the dress... It was custom-made by Joyce Hittelsdorf. She has a small studio in Carmel, Indiana called Something Wonderful. When I couldn't find anything that I loved in the stores, Joyce worked with me to put together a gown that had all of the elements I was looking for: right color, right fabrics, right fit.
