Dan + Natasha, August 3, 2011 {Pine-Gri-La Wedding Photographer}

Oh, what a lovely place to have a wedding!! This is one of my favorite venues. The winding drive up to Pine-Gri-La is idyllic, with views of Castle Crags lining the way. Dan + Natasha brought about 150 guests and celebrated their wedding there yesterday. Natasha looked ridiculously beautiful and comes from a long line of beautiful women, having a mother who could pass for her sister. She vastly improves the image of a cowboy hat and boots, as you can see! For a great departure from tradition, they had a full S'Mores bar instead of a cake.. mmm! The weather was splendid at around 78 degrees, as opposed to the usual 100 in Redding. Pine-Gri-La is like a fairy-tale village. Every detail is so beautifully put together. And I have serious garden envy -- this place is one giant flower garden. You guys were terrific! I hope you have a wonderful honeymoon and thanks for having me as your photographer!!
