It’s strange how some long wedding days can go by so quickly, and Jeffrey & Julie’s wedding was definitely one of those. We met up with them in the morning at Hayes Mansion, where the emotional tone for the rest of the day was quickly set with Julie’s reveal with her bridesmaids & bridesmen, followed by her very heartfelt speech thanking each of them for being a part of her journey over the years. J&J’s first look was a very touching one, and after that we lost count of how many times Jeffrey cried and laughed at the same time throughout the day. The mansion was a perfect place for all of this plus lots of portraits for everyone — both the beautiful interior and clean exterior are just so ideal for photos!

Eugene and Gemma got engaged and married in 2020 at the beginning of the pandemic, and as a result, they didn’t get to take a set of photos back then 🙁 And now that they’re husband and wife and we’re all free to roam around the city again, they decided that it’s time! We took this opportunity to get them back into a set of wedding attire and a couple of more casual outfits, and we created a set of SF wedding portraits at some of the most classic and iconic locations around the city. A big belated congratulations to E&G on getting married and surviving the pandemic together!

Cindy and Jonathan’s story began not long before the pandemic, and while surviving quarantine life together, they both decided it’s time. Life’s too short to wait any longer! So on a sunny spring morning, we met up with Cindy, Jonathan, and a few of their family members to celebrate their micro-wedding at Filoli Gardens. [ read more … ]

I just loooooved everything about Saachi & Sean’s Marshall’s Beach engagement photos — the oh-so-in-love couple, the beautiful golden sunset, the rocky beach during high tide — it all made me so happy then and is making me so happy all over again as I’m editing this shoot. I absolutely adored how lovey-dovey these two are and they way they’re just filled with love for one another. [ read more … ]
