I can’t wait to share with you Van and Matt’s stunning wedding photos! Their wedding was like a dream come true with a breathtaking chapel ceremony and a reception that was full of surprises. It started with a DIY boozequet that Van made herself — a beautiful, handcrafted silk bridal bouquet with a metal straw for drinking the beer cleverly hidden in the base… genius! She also designed her own dress, incorporating Vietnamese culture into their American-style wedding. [ read more … ]

We strolled around Baker Beach for some fun photo time with Doug, Liz, and their handsome Corgi mix, Tank. Doug and Liz are an outdoorsy couple who love craft beer, so for their engagement session, we photographed them sitting on the beach watching the sunset, drinking their beloved craft beer in front of the Golden Gate Bridge, and running around playing with Tank!

Have you ever met a couple for the first time yet felt that they were your longtime friends? Meet Kim and Brandon! They were madly in love and super laid-back and fun. And on top of all that, Kim is a singer and song writer (anyone who knows me would know how important singing is to me)! When Kim sang the song called “Feels Like Home” for Brandon during their ceremony, it touched my heart and I teared up. Her voice was beautiful!! Kim and Brandon made a lot of the wedding details themselves and we loved the Western-themed details throughout the whole wedding. Loved how they incorporated their baby dog Django into the cake topper 🙂 [ read more … ]

When Tim first contacted me I knew this surprise proposal was going to be one of a kind! He originally set the proposal at the beautiful Auberge Du Soleil restaurant but unfortunately the venue has a policy that doesn’t allow professional photography. After some research, Tim found Viader Vineyards and Winery — a hidden Napa gem with breathtaking views overlooking the Valley. And thanks to the super accommodating staff there, they made sure things went as smoothly as possible. They even peeked out and quietly cheered Tim on when he dropped down on one knee 🙂 [ read more … ]

These two high school sweethearts followed each other from China to Switzerland before settling down together in California. We spent the morning in and around the city capturing Sarah and Ji’s love, hitting lots of iconic San Francisco locations: the Legion of Honor, Crissy Field and the Golden Gate Bridge, the Palace of the Fine Arts, and Stanford campus. The weather was really great, with a bit of sun and a healthy dose of cloud cover, and the photos turned out great! I cannot wait to share these photos with you! [ read more … ]
