  • Folsom Engagement Session of Richard and Angela

    Richard & Angela will be married in June at Avio Vineyards!! We went out for a fun afternoon in and around old Folsom for their engagement pics.

    The jerseys they are wearing are from when Richard surprised her earlier this year at the Dallas Cowboys and San Diego Chargers game.
    They flew to the new Cowboys stadium and Richard arranged for them to take a tour of the new stadium.

    Angela’s favorite player is Miles Austin…so when they toured the locker room, she was standing in front of his locker when Richard popped the question…
    There were a lot of people, so her first words were “in front of all these people?”

    But, she said YES!!

    Mike & Taryn

    How did we get so lucky to have some of the best bride and grooms ever! Mike and Taryn are some of the best people around. We loved witnessing their wedding and capturing the beauty of their day. From the amazing house they got ready in to the spot they chose for their wedding, we loved it all. There was so much love and joy and fun in their friends and families. We hated to leave but we had a long drive home so we said our goodbyes and wished the happy couple well on their honeymoon.

    The slideshow is now here…so enjoy your wedding day once again and may you have a long, healthy, happy blessed life together!!
