Desmond and Patricia got married at the beautiful Regale Winery and Vineyards in Los Gatos a few weeks ago but right now I'm excited to share their engagement session! Originally from Singapore, Desmond and Patrica have a unique story. They met in undergrad on the East Coast only to learn that they went to school together back home but never recalled running into one another! As their relationship flourished they both ended up as post doctorates at Stanford University in Palo Alto. They finished school, got married, and are moving back to Singapore all within the span of about 90 days. Busy, busy! I had the best time getting to know them and can't wait to share more images from their actual wedding day :)
Recap of the Blair + Thurston Austin Retreat!
In February Elena Blair and I traveled to beautiful Austin, TX for the first time to host our 3rd sold out Blair + Thurston Retreat. We were joined by 8 amazing women from all walks of life with one huge thing in common- our love of photography. Over 2 1/2 days we shared our journeys, connected on a deep level, and pampered ourselves with a professional chef and private yoga. All of us became instant friends. It is an honor and a privilege to teach fellow photographers, something that Elena and I never take for granted. We love it from the bottom of our hearts.
Here are a few shots from our family shoots, behind the scenes, and headshots of the attendees!
We are SO excited to have not one but two sold out retreats taking place in Napa early next year, followed by one on the East Coast (to be announced, sign up on our website for priority info!)
