Sponsored Post: Gabriel Harber Photography

I get to write about Gabriel Harber Photography again, which is always nice for me. I always say this, but I’ve known Gabriel and his work for a long time, pre-wedding photography, and way pre-wedding blogging. And I am very very fond of his work, by which I mean to say I love it. And we’ve been known to attend his slightly bohemian parties, which means I have a feeling you’d like him too. And now he’s shooting weddings and you can hire him for that? What? Yeah, I think that would be a very good idea.

So! Gabriel Harber Photography operates out of Oakland, CA and serves the San Francisco Bay Area… and beyond. This post is about beyond. He’s offering APW couples free travel for Los Angeles, San Diego, and anywhere within 2 hours drive of San Francisco. That opens up a great APW option for some of you couples outside of my current sponsor reach. Yay! Now go browse.

Picture is from Hannah & Jared’s wedding, which I might be slightly obsessed with because (rather obviously) they are team practical members, and (rather obviously) they had the best wedding in the world… and they have not written us a wedding graduate post. Sigh.

Dress, Given V

Remember Sarah, and the most recent iteration of APW’s long tradition of passing dresses to each other? Well. Here we go. It’s time to give another dress, which is one of my very favorite things. Sarah and I, unanimously (because the giver always picks, but I don’t think I’ve ever had a situation where the giver and I didn’t instinctively immediately agree) wanted the dress to go to Nini. To Nini, who said:

Yay for fireworks and bonfires! We’ve decided to go this route too – very excited to hear that it was a hit. As for the dress.. I would love to be considered for it. It should definitely fit and it was exactly what I was hoping to find when I went dress shopping – classic and comfortable . . . instead I ended up being told that I was “too petite” for a dress like that and was told to get a longer dress so I wouldn’t look so short. So I went home and cried (I’m a sensitive gal) and haven’t worked up the nerve to go dress shopping again. Read More…
