As a wedding photographer one of the biggest things I have learned is how to work closely with your planner to coordinate the best possible timeline to make that goal a reality!⁣⠀ ⁣⠀ Over the years I have had the privilege to work with some amazingly talented planners and cannot say enough about how important it is to higher someone who you trust and whose work you love! Morgan of @spreadinglovely is one of those ladies! We worked closely putting together a streamline timeline so Sarah and Keon could enjoy all aspects of their weddings day... a few photos before ceremony, some family photos after the ceremony, and of course saving time for that golden hour of the day. ⁣⠀ ⁣⠀ Team work totally makes the dream work! 💛⁣🙌🏼 ⁣⠀ Follow along with @spreadinglovely who is now becoming Prim Event Studio (yay for her new launch happening!!!! Check out the sneak in my stories!) to see more of her beautiful work and hear more about her wedding advice and planning! ⁣⠀ ⁣⠀ Planning/Design: @spreadinglovely⁣⠀ Venue: @marinartandgarden⁣ @weddingsatmagc Florals: @Hawthornfloralstudio⁣⠀ Hair: @hair_by_missy⁣⠀ Invitations: @bournepaperco⁣⠀ .⁣⠀ .⁣⠀ .⁣⠀ .⁣⠀ .⁣⠀ .⁣⠀ #primeventstudio #adrianaklasphotography #brideandgrooom #sanfranciscoweddingphotographer #napawedding #napaweddingphotographer #livermoreweddingphotographer #bayareaphotographer #eastbayweddingphotographer #californiawedding #stylishbride #luxurywedding #weddinginspiration #filmphotographer #bayareaweddingphotographer #californiawedding #californiaweddingphotographer #sanfranciscowedding #theknot #realwedding #marinwedding #marinartandgardencenter #weddingday #forthebride #forphotographers My Baby goes to "school" (Nursey School) this Fall, which is crazy to me... and I totally have mixed emotions over it! ⁣⠀ ⁣⠀ Yayyyy!!! Because it will be full time and I feel like I can get my own life back in order a bit. I dedicate so much to him every day which I wouldn't change for anything, but it can be exhausting 😴 I am excited to get back into my routines of workouts, work... Basically get back to me! I know I am my best when I have my "me" time and can get stuff done 🙌🏼⁣⠀ ⁣⠀ But also feeling so SAD! Because my BABY!!! 💛He is going to be 2 and I just can't believe we will not be together all day every day. 😭 Right now I get to experience so much with him, and this toddler stage is THE BEST! He is honestly so funny and make the big kids and I laugh so hard! I am going to miss him so much on the day to day stuff, but know that he is so ready to be with kids his age and to get out and explore! ⁣⠀ ⁣⠀ So cheers to all the mom emotions happening right now! 😂 Do any of you moms ever get this way??? Tell me I am not the only one because emotionally I am all over the place! Hahaha!⁣⠀ ⁣⠀ Love you @oliviarichardsphoto for capturing my favorite memories! ⁣⠀ .⁣⠀ .⁣⠀ .⁣⠀ .⁣⠀ .⁣⠀ .⁣⠀ #adrianaklasphotography #motherhood #motherhoodrising #motherhoodmoments #thisismotherhood #motherly #thisismotherhood #bayareafamilyphotographer #eastbayfamilyphotogarpher #menloparkphotographer #paloaltophotographer #livermorephotographer #lifestylephotography #newbornphotography #newbornlifestylephotography #newbornlifestyle #lifestyle #clickinmoms #dearphotographer #motherhoodsimplified I typically post photos with people because I love the connection and smiles and those totally happy moments... but tonight I am putting on my heels for a night out, which me so happy! Yayyyy!!!... but let’s be super honest, there’s a good chance I’m going to change into the flats I am hiding in my purse!

Wait… those are the exact reasons we should be doing an engagement session!” ⠀ ⠀ I never took engagement photos (I don’t even remember why we didn’t) but now being in the industry I feel like it is such a part of the wedding experience and they are so fun!⠀ ⠀ I think most importantly your engagement session is a great time for you and your photographer to get to know each other! Weddings days are always busy, and you are probably with your photographer the most on your wedding day, so having spent so much time together during your engagement session will hopefully make you feel more comfortable and at ease throughout the day.⠀ .⠀ .⠀ .⠀ .⠀ .⠀ .⠀ #adrianaklasphotography #brideandgrooom #sanfranciscoweddingphotographer #napawedding #napaweddingphotographer #livermoreweddingphotographer #bayareaphotographer #eastbayweddingphotographer #californiawedding #stylishbride #luxurywedding #weddinginspiration #filmphotographer #bayareaweddingphotographer #californiawedding #californiaweddingphotographer #sanfranciscowedding #theknot #realwedding #engaged #engagementphotography #engagementphotosession Happy 1st Day of Spring!

This one if for you! 🙌🏼There is one spot left for my Mother's Day mini Sessions on April 13th... tap the link up top (in my bio) if you are interested in snagging it 💛 There is nothing I love more than capturing motherhood moments of you and your babies! ⁣⠀ .⁣⠀ .⁣⠀ .⁣⠀ .⁣⠀ .⁣⠀ .⁣⠀ #adrianaklasphotography #motherhood #motherhoodrising #motherhoodmoments #thisismotherhood #motherly #thisismotherhood #bayareafamilyphotographer #eastbayfamilyphotogarpher #menloparkphotographer #paloaltophotographer #redwoodcityphotographer #livermorephotographer #lifestylephotography #newbornphotography #newbornlifestylephotography #newbornlifestyle #lifestyle #clickinmoms #dearphotographer #motherhoodsimplified Sunday thoughts for you engaged couples 😉 ⁣⠀ ⁣⠀ Let's talk about the "First Look" option, which is if you and your fiance are going to see each other before walking down the aisle? ⁣⠀ ⁣⠀ First looks are great for settling nerves, having a special moment for you two before the ceremony, get more photos together and so many other reasons!... BUT the reason I like best about doing a First Look... You two can actually attend your cocktail hour and see all the guests that have come to celebrate your weddingl day! ⁣⠀ ⁣⠀ It is so important to me the Bride and Groom actually get time with their guests. Lets be honest, they are there to see you and celebrate! There are not there to watch you take photos with me ;) Haha! ⁣⠀ ⁣⠀ After the first look I typically do 20-30 minutes of family photos (which is also before the ceremony) that way the whole family can enjoy cocktail time together! It's the best and makes me so happy to see the Mother of the Bride hugging her friends, and the bride and groom with their friends... everyone is always so happy, excited, and ready to celebrate! It's the best! ⁣⠀ ⁣⠀ So with that... think about doing the First Look 🥂👌🏼⁣⠀ .⁣⠀ .⁣⠀ .⁣⠀ .⁣⠀ .⁣⠀ .⁣⠀ #adrianaklasphotography #brideandgrooom #sanfranciscoweddingphotographer #napawedding #napaweddingphotographer #livermoreweddingphotographer #bayareaphotographer #eastbayweddingphotographer #californiawedding #stylishbride #luxurywedding #weddinginspiration #filmphotographer #bayareaweddingphotographer #californiawedding #californiaweddingphotographer #sanfranciscowedding #theknot #realwedding #athertonwedding #firstlook #weddingvows #weddingdeatils #forphotographers #weddingplanningideas #weddingtrends #weddingdeatils #summerwedding Time for a cocktail @thewhalingclub 🥂👌🏼⁣⠀ .⁣⠀ .⁣⠀ .⁣⠀ .⁣⠀ .⁣⠀ .⁣⠀ ⁣⠀ ⁣⠀ ⁣⠀ #adrianaklasphotography #palmspringswedding #palmsprings #brideandgrooom #sanfranciscoweddingphotographer #napawedding #napaweddingphotographer #livermoreweddingphotographer #bayareaphotographer #eastbayweddingphotographer #californiawedding #stylishbride #luxurywedding #weddinginspiration #filmphotographer #bayareaweddingphotographer #californiawedding #californiaweddingphotographer #sanfranciscowedding #theknot #realwedding Throw back Saturday!!! They were so little 😢😭 ⁣⠀ We don't really have too much going on this weekend which is really nice... just more baseball and remodeling the guest bathroom, hahaha!... One of my MAJOR goals during my "slow" season this year was to get my own family photos off my computer and make my family albums 👍🏼⁣⠀ ⁣⠀ I have so many photos, from so many amazing photog friends, I have been wanting to put into albums. I love having them all over my coffee table for the kids to go through or family/friends when they come over... and yes after awhile the albums can start to look worn, but the photos are off my computer and being seen which makes me happy! ⁣⠀ ⁣⠀ My favorite place to go for albums is @artifactuprising... they have the best mini albums which is perfect for our family trips or my own family sessions. ⁣⠀ ⁣⠀ So today during Cameron's nap, while @jmklas is jack hammering tile our old guestroom bathroom tile, I will putting together about 12 mini family photo albums! 😍 #winning⁣⠀ ⁣⠀ 📷: @thepoffs from when we first moved over to the East Bay and my babies were still babies! ⁣⠀ .⁣⠀ .⁣⠀ .⁣⠀ .⁣⠀ .⁣⠀ .⁣⠀ #adrianaklasphotography #motherhood #motherhoodrising #motherhoodmoments #thisismotherhood #motherly #thisismotherhood #bayareafamilyphotographer #eastbayfamilyphotogarpher #menloparkphotographer #paloaltophotographer #livermorephotographer #lifestylephotography #newbornphotography #newbornlifestylephotography #newbornlifestyle #lifestyle #clickinmoms #dearphotographer #motherhoodsimplified #photographerlife #printyourphotos #artifactuprising
