An elegant
black tie wedding in Carmel, CA

Mary and Dylan's black tie wedding in Carmel, California was a stunning and elegant wedding day. They were surrounded by all of their closest friends and family on their rainy wedding day that ended with a gorgeous sunset just in time for their "just married" portraits before they enjoyed cocktail hour! Their wedding was a great representation of  documentary & timeless imagery.

The week before we met at SF City Hall for their Bridal session, they were actually legally married in Iran, their home country. So technically, you can say this session was more of a bridal session.
