One morning I received a call, the fellow inquired about a particular wedding day, which I had open, and we chatted a bit and then he said he was calling form Israel! Holy cow! They found me in Israel! How cool is that!?!?!
We scheduled a Skype call and we giggled and chatted about their wedding day which was at the Ritz Carlton (www.ritzcarlton.com/hmb) in Half Moon Bay (swoon!) while I clumsily tried to show them my handmade wedding albums from Italy while holding them in front of the Mac’s built-in camera! I must’ve looked like a circus performer. HA! We had such a lovely connection and I later got the memo- I was their gal! Once they arrived in the States, they set aside an evening for the three of us to go out to dinner, but alas- their favorite restaurant in San Francisco had an emergency closing! Arg! We ended up going to my fav- Pizzaiolo (http://www.pizzaiolooakland.com/) YUM! It was such a lovely evening when we became friends.
On their wedding day, we were blessed with lovely weather- no fog! How rare is that in Half Moon Bay!?!? I know! To say it was exquisite experience is really an understatement. Their wedding planner, Orna with Ornamento in The City (http://www.ornamento.com/) did one of the loveliest jobs I’ve ever seen– highly, highly, highly recommended! We all had such a deep connection, as did my favorite photography partner Edwin Borbon (http://www.edwinborbon.com/) who helped me with the wedding day. You so totally ROCK, Edwin! :D
Anna and Segev will make California their home in September, and I can hardly wait to continue our lovely friendship. And who knows, maybe they’ll be able to take me up on my free baby portrait session, sooner rather than later! Perfect!
