I truly enjoyed working at Alison and Paul’s wedding album. They are such a sweet couple. So caring and dedicated to one another. Their wedding day was so joyous, intimate and warm. When I work at wedding albums it always brings back nice memories. I think that’s why I want to personally design it, and don’t like to use templates but prefer to create for my clients an unique design that will distinguish each one of them. And how could it be otherwise… each wedding is so different, as are the personalities of the couples, the guests, the details and the atmosphere..

Vendors at this wedding: The amazing team of Fork and Spoon Productions, I love working with them!!! They catered the food, flowers, table and decorations, and the cake! Dj Matteo rocked the house with his great music selection at One Fort Mason in San Francisco.

For those of you out there looking for a venue for your wedding.. consider Paradise Ridge Winery in Santa Rosa. I just created this promotional piece for them featuring Nicolle and Dennis who got married there earlier last summer. Visit their website to get more info on the facility and services.

It’s been about 3 months since I have been part of the team at Light Sky Studios downtown Burlingame. My collegue Dennis Menendez did an amazing job decorating and making it inviting for everyone! We get compliments all the time. Wedding and Portrait Design Consultations are available by appointment and are free of charge. Come and see my latest wall portraits and albums in a relaxed, candle scented ambience. Together we’ll plan for your next photo session discussing clothing, location and any special request you may have.

This is part of our ’stage’ for photo shoots… you may remember one of my first studio portrait session with Ela. And below, you can see the space dedicated to wardrobe change and make up area.  We even have a set of curtains to give you privacy while changing outfilts. Looking forward to see you soon at Light Sky Studio! Call Daniela 650 759 6020 to sep up your appointment.

Winter is usually the time when girls start dreaming and planning their summer weddings… I am sure a romantic italian scenery is on many women’s minds… How about a Destination Wedding in Rome? If you are dreaming of an unforgettable setting in the Eternal City here is something to tickle your imagination…

For this photoshoot, my Roman bride had to wake up before sunrise to make sure we wouldn’t have too much of a crowd interfearing with her poses at the busy touristic sight of Castelsantangelo. In fact, at 6am the streets were still deserted and we just got the perfect warm sunrise light to shine on this brave bride.

In the afternoon, we stopped at Villa Borghese for few more clicks.
