Stemple Creek Ranch | Wedding | Stacey + Traci

Filed in: Weddings and Engagements

From the first time I met with Stacey and Traci we automatically clicked. The vibe between us was organic and natural, it felt like we’ve all known each other for years. That’s the type of people they are. They’re fun-loving, passionate, and don’t sugar coat anything. Whenever you’re around these two your face will be sore the next day from laughing the whole time. Their wedding wasn’t any different.

As a Sacramento wedding photographer, I’m privileged to be able to work in some amazing locations scattered throughout Northern California. Stacey and Traci’s hosted their wedding at the beautiful Stemple Creek Ranch in the rolling hills of Tomales, California in Marin County. This Northern California wedding venue has up to four ceremony location sites, open fields, wild flowers, redwoods, and a feel of rustic elegance. If you’re lucky enough to catch an epic sunset (like we were), hike up to the hilltop ceremony location for views you”ll never forget. If you’re searching for a Bay Area wedding venue with elegant barn feels, definitely check out Stemple Creek Ranch.
