As a Napa wedding photographer, we here at Tinywater were blown away by the attention to gorgeous detail after detail at Abbey and Josh’s whimsical forest wedding. The festivities took place at the lovely Dawn Ranch in Guerneville, just north west of Napa, California. The fifteen acre property gave us plenty of opportune spots to take some unique pictures and portraits of the bride and groom.




Rain and fog make for occasional bumps in the road for us as a Napa wedding photographer, but Abbey and Josh managed to make it work for them. Abbey’s white wedding dress with her gray and pink polka dot rain boots combined to create some of our favorite bride portraits!

Pinks and purples were popping up all over the place, with Josh’s tie and the couple’s pink umbrella.

These little compositions of redwood pine cones, ferns, moss, and tiny pink flowers were settled into silver platters and dishes, really creating a magical forest feeling. All of these flowers seemed like they could have been freshly picked from the beautiful woods that surround Dawn Ranch.


The woods surrounding Dawn Ranch were still dripping from the rain, but made for some truly magical couple portraits with Abbey and Josh. In all kinds of weather, we know how lucky we are to have such gorgeous scenery to work with as a Napa wedding photographer!

The couple had a dessert table filled with cookies and goodies for their guests to take home in personalized linen bags. The tall glass jars allowed these colorful sugary confections to become part of the decor at the reception!


We loved being Abbey and Josh’s Napa wedding photographer because of their unique style and details like the antique desk with drawers filled with moss to display the guest cards just outside the reception. The desk and the couch seemed to have magically appeared on the lawn out of thin air!

The lawn at Dawn Ranch was so luscious and green. We had a blast being Abbey and Josh’s Napa wedding photographer for the day, and hope you are as inspired by their unique enchanted forest wedding as we are!
Gorgeous, love these!
