Portraits – Shanti Duprez Fine Portrait Photography

Winters Park Magic

Posted on May 26, 2021 | by Shanti

My first wedding back in full swing since February of 2020. After 26 years of capturing weddings, I have to admit the pause was exactly what I needed. And to come back to my first wedding after the pandemic to this magical day was exactly what I needed for a breath of fresh air. The Inn at Park Winters in Winters, CA is a magical venue complete with vista views, a vintage mansion and an old farm house. Pair that background with a beautiful bride and handsome groom and about 150 people from my hometown of Half Moon Bay, and it was such a perfect day in every way!

I was referred to Shanti by a friend, so my fiancé and I decided to use her for our engagement pictures. Shanti had fast responses to both my emails and phone calls and did a great job of answering all of my questions. She was very flexible as we had to reschedule several times due to being rained out. In the end, we were lucky enough to be able to take our photos on the Half Moon Bay bluffs on a 75 degree day in February! Shanti was able to make us both feel very comfortable in front of the camera (even my fiancé who doesn’t like having his picture taken) and gave us great direction for poses to ensure our photos turned out well. The finished photos are AMAZING and we were impressed with how well they turned out! We received the photos back very quickly and had full access to the digital versions so we could print and share them as we chose to. Needless to say, we’ve already booked Shanti for our upcoming wedding (August 2016) and can’t wait to work with her again!

Shanti was the photographer of our dreams for our engagement pictures and our wedding! For our engagement pictures, I sent her a few ideas, but she really brought it to life and we couldn’t have loved them more! She is SO on top of everything and made us feel SO comfortable throughout the 2 hour session. For our wedding, at Jacuzzi Family Vineyards in Sonoma, we couldn’t have asked for a more professional, AMAZING photographer! Shanti and her team were top notch and I can’t say enough about her! They came to where we were getting ready, were SO on point with the timeline and all the little details and followed my now husband and I around like a hawk! We had talked about various group pictures and different locations at the vineyards and she made sure that EVERYTHING was captured! I cannot recommend Shanti and her team enough! We cannot wait to see all of our wedding day photos and to use her for other photos down the road! You’re the BEST Shanti!
