Holman Ranch Wedding - Carmel, CA - Drew Zavala Photo - Gaby + Kiko Alonso

Gaby + Kiko Alonso’s wedding was probably the best way to kick off my 2022 wedding season. The details, the vibes, the love in the air, music, history, and stories from both sides of the family just made the day feel incredible!

If you are getting married or attending a wedding at Holman Ranch in Carmel, you are in for quite the treat, my friend! You are surrounded by beautiful oak trees with lush grass. The views of the Carmel Valley are just steps away and make an incredible backdrop for your ceremony!

My favorite part was heading up to the highest part of the property to catch some sunset portraits at Holman Ranch in Carmel. I’m so glad we took the 15 minutes to head up there. Most definitely worth it!

These photos speak for themselves; see below!

Filoli Gardens Engagement Photographer - Woodside, CA

Where do I begin?! We started Alex & Delfina's engagement session at the top of Filoli Gardens. The overcast weather gave us that natural softbox feeling throughout the session, and their photos turned out amazing! Filoli Gardens has to be one of my top 5 locations for an engagement session in the bay area.

I can't wait to photograph their wedding in June! Filoli Gardens is a great location for engagement photos because there is just a perfect spot to take pictures no matter where you look. It's so hard to take a bad photo here. Check out the images below!

King City Wedding Photographer - Angel & Gisselle - Drew Zavala Media

Anime, Gaming & Epic are the 3 words that come to mind after documenting Angel & Gisselle’s wedding. Adding another backyard wedding to my list, it also checked off many other boxes! We started with some getting ready photos and surprises.

Apparently its harder to find a PS5 than it is to find a good photographer the day before a wedding day right now! Heck, I’d have the same reaction if someone gifted me a PS5 on my wedding day too!

First look portraits at Scheid Vineyards were mixed with that beautiful Salinas Valley Sunshine and a slight breeze. The rest of the day is for the books. See below to view this beautiful and epic celebration.
