Some places are just magical; Chenowith Woods is surely among them. Situated in the redwoods just off the Russian River near Guernville, this venue is a touch of sylvan serenity. The cool green light filtering through the tree tops meeting the warm dusty golden earth made for a perfect wedding site for friends and family to celebrate with Stephanie and Bobby. Bernadette of Belle fine Weddings and Peter Bruce Photography was lucky enough to photograph this warm, intensely personal event for the enchanting couple. Great food and drink followed by loving wishes from all the families segued into a great get down blues performance by Curtis Lawson and his band. The evening ended with the strains of “Bound by Love” floating into the night.
Some of the pics from the wedding- hope you enjoy,
Memorial weekend found Belle Fine Weddings and PeterBruce Photography back at beautiful Testarossa Winery with a great couple, Kalli and Gabriel. The combination of century old stone buildings and beautiful vineyards winding around the Los Gatos hills mixed with the shining spirit of this lovely group of families made for a fabulous wedding and some truly touching photos.
Sometimes a wedding day is so full of details ,family, intense emotions, that the time seems to flash right by and the couple are left wondering afterwards ” Did the guests have fun? Did I have fun?” The answer is you bet! Here are some fun and funny moments from our last few events.
We recently had the pleasure of taking photos at the San Francisco Irish Cultural Center’s 35th Anniversary celebration. The lovely Teresa Moore arranged for us to shoot the anniversary party and what a party it was. Everything from the scrumptious hors d’oeuvres to the energetic entertainment was first class. After many heartfelt tribute speeches and the haunting strains of the bagpipers faded , the fine band played on as the guests danced the night away.
Over the year 2009 Peter Bruce Photo & Video have done a lot of good weddings,but it would be hard to go past time one for Jillianne & Andrew at the beautiful Purple Orchid Inn. Look at all the photos on my blog at
