Kyle and Veronica {Engaged in San Jose}

Written by Door51 Photography on Mar 05 2010 | General

We were starting our new jobs at Mercury Interactive on the same day, and were the only two people at the “orientation” meeting. Kyle and I have been friends ever since. He always struck me as a sensible and respectable guy, and when Nicole and I got to meet Veronica, we were happy that he found someone so lovely to complement him.

We were thrilled when we heard the news of their engagement, and were just as excited when they chose us as their wedding photographers.

We started the e-session with lunch at Tomatina, and took advantage of their colorful walls first thing thereafter.


Five Wounds Portuguese National Church was on the way to our next location, so we took advantage of its beauty.


The amazing City Hall was our next stop. I’m fairly certain we exploited every curvy line that place had to offer. The 15mm fisheye lens gave us some interesting perspectives.


We smelled some flowers, had some coffee, and headed out to discover more of downtown.





Kyle did some window shopping at the San Jose Public Library. =0) It was fun.



And now we can’t wait for the wedding…

Randy & Julia {Wedding}

Written by Door51 Photography on Dec 06 2009 | Wedding

This year we might have spent our Thanksgiving at home, as we did last year, but an important family event brought us to Maryland. It was the wedding of Nicole’s cousin and close friend, Randy, to his beloved Julia.

We celebrated Thanksgiving with Nicole’s extended family and two days later, re-united with them to watch Randy and Julia get married. As their wedding photographer I was granted the behind-the-scenes access, and photographed them in the beautiful home of Randy’s cousin Leah and her partner, John, who so gracefully allowed us to use their house.

Randy and Julia had a private ceremony and reception attended by a small number of their closest family and friends. Thank you for choosing us to capture one of the most important days of your life.

Irena { Maternity }

Written by Door51 Photography on Nov 21 2009 | Maternity

Our friends, Nick & Irena, are about to have their first baby, and there’s excitement in the air! All Irena wanted was a handful of nice photographs to remember her pregnancy. A few weekends ago we snapped a few shots while visiting the Picchetti winery in Cupertino, and a week later we utilized their lovely home to create the rest.
