HI EVERYONE WELCOME TO OUR BLOG. OUR NAMES ARE JONATHAN AND JOANNE, BEST KNOWN AS JOANNATHAN. WE'RE PHOTOGRAPHERS BASED OUT IN SAN JOSE, CA.

WE LOVE CAPTURING LIFE AS IT HAPPENS, WHETHER ITS YOUR FAMILY SESSION OR YOUR WEDDING, WE'D LOVE TO BE PART OF IT.

Some brides and grooms might arrive to their wedding in Limos, Hummers, or Bentleys.  Others like Leila and Andrea arrive in the most pimp vehicle, a 1960 Baby Blue Fiat 600.  Talk about a bride’s “something blue”!

I can’t wait to photograph Linda and Joe’s wedding this December.  They are my last wedding for the year and I’m sure it’ll be just as much fun as their engagement session.  I love the dynamic between these two because through out all the photos you can definitely see that Joe knows how to make Linda smile and laugh.   A trait in which both Joanne and I believe is something important to get you through the tough times in life…

Enjoy the photos as I enjoyed taking them!!  I can’t wait for your December wedding.  It’s going to be a blast!LJESESSIONSHOW002LJESESSIONSHOW006LJESESSIONSHOW009LJESESSIONSHOW020LJESESSIONSHOW022LJESESSIONSHOW030LJESESSIONSHOW035LJESESSIONSHOW045LJESESSIONSHOW001LJESESSIONSHOW048LJESESSIONSHOW054LJESESSIONSHOW057LJESESSIONSHOW060LJESESSIONSHOW064LJESESSIONSHOW066

Stacy and Guillaume had an awesome intimate wedding at Testarossa Winery in Los Gatos, CA.  I remember arriving to the site thinking,  ”Stacy got her clouds.”  She loves big puffy clouds and who doesn’t.  It makes for awesome pictures on the hillside and just sets the tone and mood for the day.  The flowers from The Flower Cottage were amazing and they were such a pleasure to work with on the day of. Everyone from the staff of Testarossa Winery all the way to her make up artist and hairstylist truly made Stacy and Guillaume’s day fantastic.  The bride and groom also had brought their own picture frames and silly hats to incorporate in some fun photo wall photos during the reception.   Here are some of my favorite photos from the day.   To see more check out their slideshow.

Andre and his wife Daisy have two wonderful kids Isaiah and Alayzia.  Andre is a photographer who’s just starting off in the industry.  His work is fantastic and a must see.  Check out his site here.  Their shoot was so much fun.  Everytime I do a family shoot I make sure I have the opportunity to play with the kids first before I bust out the camera.  For all you photographers out there its a really great way to warm with their personalities and gives you the chance to win their trust.  It’s also a great way to get to know them and to see what makes them tick.  Doing that always makes for awesome photos!

Here are some of my favorites from the day.  To view more check out their slideshow.
