Louisa and Billy first met through OKCupid and quickly fell in love. They had a 97% match rating which sounds crazy high, but after seeing how full of joy they were on their wedding day, I’m surprised it’s not even higher! Last summer, after backpacking the John Muir Trail together and even climbing Mt. Whitney, they decided to get married.

Their wedding day was an ultra romantic one filled with love and happiness, and it started in two beautiful vacation homes at Point Reyes Station where they got into their wedding attire. I swooned over Louisa’s bridal look — her sheath wedding gown and the stunning chapel length veil gave her an elegance that we (and Billy) will never forget!! L&B exchanged their vows and received many blessings in front of the Giacomini Barn, then here — the highlight of the day — they had a wedding parade! Billy and Louisa led the way singing “I Would Walk 500 Miles” while walking across the little town from their ceremony site to Toby’s Feed Barn. Guitars, accordions, laughter, and singing, it was PERFECTION!!! [ read more … ]

I had the pleasure of being P&M’s engagement and wedding photographer. Their engagement photos were taken about a month before their wedding at Lake Merritt in Oakland. We drove around the lake, met some friendly Canada geese, and got some cute photos for the couple at the pier. [ read more … ]

Ashley and Paul held their wedding at Oceano Hotel & Spa, one of my favorite wedding venues in the Bay Area. Their navy blue and yellow themed wedding was a gorgeous affair, and the color coordination could be seen throughout the wedding, from the bridesmaid dresses to the floral arrangement, from their wedding cake to the centerpieces. AND, the Irish band at their dance party was definitely a hit! [ read more … ]

Austin and Brittany planned a destination wedding (in Mexico!!), and wanted to have their save-the-date/engagement photos taken near the Golden Gate Bridge. We drove along the windy road near Battery Spencer up to the top with the tunnels where Austin proposed, then headed back to Baker Beach to run around and bury our feet in the sand. Luck was with us, and instead of a typically foggy summer day in San Francisco, we got a stunningly beautiful sky!! [ read more … ]

Let me start this by saying David and Jeremy’s proposal was an extremely emotional one, probably the most touching I’ve ever seen! How great was it, you ask? I couldn’t even see through my camera viewfinder at some points during David’s proposal because I was tearing up! I was so touched by the mad love between these two. David caught Jeremy off guard with this great surprise on their date night, and Jeremy was completely in shock! After responding with a yes, Jeremy decided to bend down on his knee to ask David the same question — so precious!!

D&J, your genuine love for each other created a magical moment that we’ll never forget. I’m so happy to announce that David and Jeremy are engaged!!!
