Trash The Dress Baker Beach | Carlos Valentino Photography

A few days after Nallely and Erick’s Civil Wedding, I met them on the edge of the Presidio at Baker Beach for a Bridal Portrait. Beach Bridal Portraits are memorable and super romantic. It was great to see them walking on the edge of the water, walking hand in hand, holding their shoes while Nallely’s Wedding dress danced in the ocean breeze. I strongly believe that every Bridal couple should go out for a “Day After” Bridal Portrait; it’s fun!

Tiburon | Bay Area Wedding | Nallely & Erick

Bay Area, Tiburon, San Fransico, Marin County, Wedding Photography, Carlos Valentino

Nallely and Erick have been planning their civil wedding for over a year. Nallely’s plan was to walk from her penthouse suite at the Wharf Inn in San Francisco, to Pier 39 on Embarcadero street, take the Blue & Gold Ferry and meet her Groom in Tiburon a small town of Marin County and she did it but, in the rain. We anticipated rain so we made preparations the week before. We bought the Bride and Groom clear dome shape umbrellas which I thought would be fun for pictures. The camera was in a water proof bag and my assistant covered me and the camera as we made our way to the ferry. It was great to see that tourist and Bay Area Natives clap and cheer as the Bride walked the streets in her beautiful wedding dress in the rain. Nallely and Erick had their hearts set on getting married at the edge of the shore in Tiburon but Mother Nature had other plans. When Nallely arrived we learned that her guest had taken shelter in Guaymas, a restaurant near by. I looked for the manager and explained the situation and she suggested that we use the upper room of the restaurant!!! THIS IS GREAT CUSTOMER SERVICE, without taken a dime she offered their room for this special moment. The staff lit candles, turned on the fireplace and created a charming place for family and guest to witness this wonderful event. After they exchanged their vows the rain stopped and we went outside for the family portraits.

Beach Wedding | Tiburon Marin County

Sunday, January 30th, 2011

I always wanted a beach wedding. The big blue sky, the sound of the waves as they crash on the edge of the beach, surrounded by the fresh scent of sea salt and white sand on your toes. I never had a beach wedding but I’m happy to say that my friends Nallely and Erick are getting married on the beach. They are getting married on the beach of Tiburon, a lovely seaside village in Marin County and I’m happy to say that I am their photographer; I’m so excited and I can’t wait!

I hope I don’t trip.

P.S. Do you use Pay Pal?
