Amy and David’s engagement session was relaxed, fun, and perhaps most of all, beautiful! We had initially planned on starting at Pier 7 and then heading over to Sutro Baths for sunset, but alas, the weather that day wasn’t meant to be. The fog over Richmond/Sunset remained thick through the afternoon, so we flipped our shoot around to start by the oceanside and catch sunset at the Embarcadero waterfront instead, where the sun was still peeking out over the clouds.

And it worked out really well! [ read more … ]

Dom & Mae said their vows and tied the knot earlier this month with a tiny elopement. And in the midst of this global pandemic, the logistics were actually quite difficult! There was almost no place in the Bay Area to have a ceremony, so they went down to Santa Cruz. Although coronavirus-related restrictions kept me from documenting the ceremony itself, I’m so glad I got the opportunity to meet up with them afterwards for some outdoor elopement portraits in San Francisco and create these memories of their wedding day. Check out a few of the photos below!

We met Laura Beth & Andrew almost a year and a half ago, back when the world was still humming along and everyone was doing the now-unthinkable — like gathering in groups and giving out hugs! 😱 Yeah, crazy times, I know. When it became clear a few months back that their meticulously-planned wedding would be disrupted, Laura Beth and Andrew decided to rethink it all and distill their wedding celebration down to what really mattered: a memorialization of love between the two of them, witnessed by their family & friends both near and far. As a result, they completely reimagined their wedding day and turned it the most fun and interactive Zoom wedding ever! [ read more … ]

Like almost all of our 2020 brides and grooms, Al-Lee and Charles had to postpone their celebration due to the coronavirus. But they just couldn’t wait to actually get married! So they chose to have a micro-wedding at Gardener Ranch (their original venue) on their original wedding date. [ read more … ]

Just over a year ago, we quietly hid in the (figurative) bushes as Jason and Xiaonan took a walk through the quiet and sheltered Muir Woods, until they ended up on one of the wooden bridges where he proposed (and where, of course, she said yes!). They decided to do something a little different and have an oceanside sunset engagement shoot, out in the open, under a warm sunset sky with the fresh ocean breeze all around them. [ read more … ]
