We recently did a photo swap of each other in picturesque downtown Claremont. I had so much fun spending the afternoon with Nancy and look forward to our couples photo swap this fall!

We’ve had lots of great meals, coffee breaks, and adventures together (most of which I documented on film!). On their last day here we spent the day in Temecula wine tasting! The weather was perfect–a cool breeze and warm sunshine! We had a wonderful and mellow time enjoying wine, exploring new vineyards, picnicking under a tree and relaxing together. Thanks for a great visit mom and dad! Can’t wait to see you when we are in NYC for an October wedding!

Even my parents’ dog, Hudson, came along for the trip! Temecula vineyards are surprisingly dog friendly–some of them even let dogs in the tasting rooms.

Wilson Creek Winery was hosting a dog adoption day. Dogs were all over the property being shown off by their foster parents. Every once in a while you would see a dog darting across the lawn and 2 or 3 people chasing after the escapee.

You can see an earlier post with their ceremony and couple shots here. As promised earlier, here are some photos from their reception, which was held at the fabulous french restaurant, La Vie En Rose.

The Impossible Project is now creating Polaroid film! Nathan and Mie are SO cool that they brought a Polaroid camera and film for us to use during their reception!

The silly printer didn’t print any of the double exposed negatives so I have to wait yet another week to share the more funky images from the roll, but in the mean time here is a cute image of Craig and my cat, Merlyn.

At the end of the day we had trekked over 6 miles!  Nathan and Mie set aside a lot of time for photos during their day and we had a great time with them.  Thanks again for having us be a part of your celebration!

Stay tuned for another post soon with photos from their reception!
