Jamie & Andy
Promontory and Beaulieu

FEATURED portfolio gallery

When choosing where to have the wedding, Andy and Jamie wanted a destination so their friends and family could bond. Given the time of year/weather and how they met, Napa was an obvious choice. They love to buy wine from Promontory, and fell in love with the architecture when they visited in person. They felt determined to incorporate it into our wedding weekend and landed on using it to host our arrival ball.
They chose Beaulieu Garden for the wedding day as they wanted a very classic looking venue to go with their aesthetic which was vintage elegance with a laid back provincial twist. I saw a picture of the "marthe ritz paris" charger plate which was the inspiration for the vintage french theme, and they planned a lot of the decor with those in mind. They wanted each aspect of the wedding to have something new/fun/surprising, so they used three different areas in Beaulieu. The garden for cocktail hour, the tree canopy area with views of the vineyard for the ceremony, and the arbor area for dinner and dancing. Since the Four Seasons in Calistoga was the base hotel for the weekend, they decided to throw the afterparty there, so we could keep the party going well into the night.

- Alexis and Philip, Bride and Groom

“Not only is Larissa a phenomenal artist, she is one of the warmest and most sincere people I have ever met. Her vision is utterly unique, beautiful and incredibly raw. It was an honor to have her as our photographer. She made our wedding magical and turned our memorable moments into works of art. There are no words to describe our gratitude.” 

— Carly and Garrett, Bride and gRoom

"We can't stop talking about how lucky we were to find Larissa! After seeing her portfolio, I knew we had to have her. Our wedding photos are ethereal and capture the emotions felt during the day perfectly. She was also just a joy to be around (I now realize how important that is!) Her work is prominently featured around our home, our parents' homes, and many others who love the images she took of them that day. We cant wait to have her continue to photograph us as we grow our family!"

— Mia and Nima, Bride and Groom

"Larissa and her team did an incredible job at our two-day Indian/Persian/American bash. Not only did she create fantastic portraits for the ages, she caught some incredibly precious, touching, personal moments that I missed. Seeing the photos for the first time allowed me to fully experience my wedding in ways I wasn't able to during the actual event, and for that I am so grateful. What's more is that she and her colleagues were unobtrusive during the event, while still giving helpful direction during the staged shots. Larissa is a pleasure to work with. My recommendation is to just trust her and put the event in her hands and you will not be disappointed! Truly, all of our families went bezerk when they saw the photos! They all are obsessed - and I am too!! Honestly I don't think I've ever looked so good."
