Sunday - October 29, 2006The Four SeasonsI was honored when asked by The Four Seasons to
capture some detail and room shots of this
wedding.
Photographer: Karina Marie Diaz, Lifestyle Photographer Venue: The Four Seasons, Stacie Brauch Florist: Floramor Videographer: Thomas Hughes Video "From the moment you meet Karina, you instantly “click!” Her professionalism and passion is truly inspiring which is evident through her numerous published weddings and albums. She portrays the essence of grace and beauty of each person she shoots. Everyone captured looks genuinely at ease and comfortable with her as if we’ve been friends for years. As my role is more in the behind the scenes, I am not being used to being photographed but felt immediately relaxed with Karina. It was so much fun! Karina is a breath of fresh air….a true professional full of enthusiasm, poise and style. I recommend her wholeheartedly!" -Stacie Brauch, Catering Sales Manager "Karina is a perfect blending of artist and technician who, through her passion for capturing beauty, gives to the bride and her family a view of their wedding that will reawaken the magic of the day each time they look at her photos. My brides love her work, adore her genuine personality and feel totally confident that she will put her heart and soul into every event she documents. Karina's photography is the best around....without a doubt." -Laura Little, Floramor "You're a doll! Karina, I did a search for Connie Kearns' new website and inadvertently came upon your blog. It's absolutely, absolutely gorgeous! I've never seen such beautiful photos online. I don't know what your secret is for achieving such crisp, clear, vibrant images. They jump off the page. The design of the blog is spectacular too. Is it really entirely your creation? As busy as you are I have no idea where you come up with the time. As professionals, we all come up with creative ideas to showcase our work and keep it fresh, but most ideas never come to fruition because we're all so busy. I'm convinced that you don't sleep at night! Cheers to you! You work so hard. You're an inspiration and you deserve the tremendous success you've achieved." -Thomas Hughes Friday - October 06, 2006The Asian Art Museum and the Beach!"Thank you so very much for
photographing our wedding. Your expertise paid off in ways we wouldn't have
imagined - not just in the photography itself, but in the details of the day.
You were like part of the wedding party. You fit right in and it was a pleasure
to have you with us. The more we look at our photos, the more we are falling in
love with them! They are
fabulous."

with it's vibrant colors and rich fabrics. Crimson red fabric draped the
hallways providing the perfect backdrop to this black tie wedding where many
women wore traditional custom designed dresses. Members of the San Francisco
Symphony played to the guests as they arrived and admired the magnetic lotus
with it's bud of roses. The ice bar was complete with ice chilled martinis and
an etching of the lotus theme that glowed with white light. Belly dancers and
mimes entertained the guests as they enjoyed the opulent Indian buffet. The
cake was covered in over 250 white chocolate flowers and surrounded by a crystal
strung Mandap. The Mandap is normally used for the Indian ceremony but in this
case it was used as an ornate frame for the cake. There were 550 individual
cakes served to the guests. As you enjoy these photographs you can feel the
magic of the evening as it unfolds." -Karina Marie
