Their love was palpable and right out there for the taking. I was honored to be trusted with it. I am so happy for them.
We went strawberry picking, because they are passionate about good food and healthy living. I thought it would be a good match for them. (And it was.) The light was so beautiful we had to go to the beach, too.

Thank you Tara.
For your gift for capturing reality and emotion and life with such clarity and tenderness that we all feel it.
For (as another photographer already posted) showing a glimpse of my life on your blog. It’s easy in this photography world of families and brides and grooms and mom’s and dads to feel utterly invisible. Although I have no need or expectation of validation, there is something so beautiful about visiting here and seeing these images, and this love displayed with such gentleness.
For the serendipity that lead me to your blog immediately after hearing of the Prop 8 ruling…seeing this post and knowing that today the state of California said that Stacy and Ruth (and thousands and thousands of other couples) are deserving of marriage and that discrimination against them serves and benefits nobody.
for all these things, I am thankful.
Stacy and Ruth – you are beautiful, and your love is inspirational.
Love love love love it! You are so gifted, lady!
Gorgeous, Tara. Love the location… love the colors… love the LOVE.
Two beautiful women, beautifully in love.
Wow, these made me teary-eyed.
