A Photos Just So Bride + Groom Make the NY Times Weddings Section!

April 17, 2015 Justin Souza
green wedding dress

We knew the wedding we shot three weeks ago was an incredible one, that the love and boundless joy and ugly-crying at that event was something worth writing about. Turns out the NY Times agreed! Check out Eva and Winston's story and, you know, try not to cry.

(Note: the photos in the article are not ours, but we're thrilled to share our shots of the event in a blog post next week. Stay tuned!)

Cheyanne + Christian's Glamorous Black Tie Wedding // The River Mill // French Camp, CA

March 2, 2015 Justin Souza
the river mill wedding

There's just something about a classic, dramatic black tie wedding that never goes out of style. Cheyanne and Christian chose the perfect venue for theirs: The River Mill in French Camp, a gigantic brick building - originally built in 1873 - that's surrounded by carefully-tended gardens, fountains and old oak trees. And as gorgeous as this converted chicory mill was, Cheyanne and Christian's elegant wedding details were more than a match.

Solana + Kevin's San Francisco Giants Inspired Wedding // Stockton, CA

February 6, 2015 Justin Souza
stockton country wedding

Do you think you're a Giants superfan? If you can't put "threw a Giants themed wedding" on your fan resume, then Solana and Kevin have you beat. There were lots of subtle nods to their favorite team peppered into the event - the grey and orange color scheme for the wedding party's clothes, the grey, black and orange ribbon poofs that lined the aisle during the ceremony. And then there were the not-so-subtle details, like Solana's garter, which proudly proclaimed GIANTS, and the specially-made cake topper that looked exactly like a miniature Solana and Kevin, decked out in wedding finery and baseball hats.

Mere + Cora's Joy-Filled Forest Wedding // Los Gatos, CA

January 2, 2015 Justin Souza
Mere & Cora-Photos Just So-261.jpg

Weddings are full of joy - that's a given. But every once in a while, there's a special alchemy that happens at a wedding, a convergence of a couple so suited to one another that they seem to radiate with happiness and a location that's not only beautiful but also holds a special significance in the couple's lives. And, of course, a merry band of guests that come to cry, laugh and dance the night away in celebration. Mere and Cora's wedding had all of this and more. Going through the pictures afterwards, it was difficult to find a shot where the subjects weren't beaming, be they the brides themselves or their families and friends.

Photos Just So Goes to Oregon

August 21, 2014 Justin Souza
modesto wedding photographers

This June, Justin and I were lucky enough to shoot the wedding of two of our favorite people in the world - old friends from back in our graduate school days. With camera gear stowed safely in the trunk of our car, we trekked our way up to Roseburg, Oregon and photographed their gorgeous garden nuptials. Our friends are private people and prefer that we don't include shots of their faces or those of their guests, but we couldn't resist sharing a few of our favorite details from this vintage-linen-filled wedding.

Mary Ella + Jeremiah's Enchanted Gnome Wedding // Rockefeller Lodge // San Pablo, CA

May 15, 2014 Justin Souza
enchanted gnome wedding

There are fairytale themed weddings and then there are weddings straight out of a fairytale – Mary Ella and Jeremiah’s was the latter. The venue was Rockefeller Lodge in San Pablo, California, and its outcroppings of moss and giant folk-art-carved door were already pure magic. Add in Mary Ella and Jeremiah’s garden gnome reception details, her enchanting red shoes and the enormity of their love and let’s face it: you can’t get much more fairytale than that.
