Spencer & Adriana | Marin Black Sands Beach Surprise Proposal
Black Sands Beach is a serene, peaceful beach nestled at the base of the Marin Headlands just north of San Francisco. Despite its beautiful, fine sandy composition, its perfect position right at the inlet to the San Francisco Bay, and its great view of both the city and of nature, this beach is one of the quietest in the Bay Area. It’s a sizable beach, but has a relaxed, intimate feel because of how empty it usually is. I didn’t even know about this place until Spencer told me, and I’m very glad he did! [ read more … ]
Mary & Juno | Palace of Fine Arts + Lands End/Sutro Baths Engagement Photos
Mary and I have been friends for almost twenty years now, ever since we were mischievous little middle schoolers. (And by we, I really mean me.) She and her fiancé Juno recently moved from the east coast to San Francisco so that the four of us can have hot pot together, and possibly for other more practical reasons as well. These two are so perfect for each other, and Annie and I couldn’t be happier to have had the opportunity to shoot their engagement photos! [ read more … ]

Jenny & Robert | San Francisco Babymoon Maternity Session at Baker Beach
For their anniversary last month, Jenny and Rob planned a “babymoon” trip to San Francisco. While they were in town, we met at Baker Beach for a sunset photo session for them. I’m actually about a month farther along than Jenny and had my own babymoon a couple of months back, so I know how great it is! [ read more … ]
Jordan & Torey’s Surprise Proposal | San Francisco Slackers Hill Golden Gate Bridge View
Slackers Hill is the tallest hill in the Marin Headlands facing the Golden Gate Bridge from the north, and consequently has an absolutely spectacular view of the entire area, including nearly the entire city of San Francisco, along with the Bay Bridge, Oakland, and parts of Sausalito. Its peak (elevation ~930 feet) has a small, flat plateau featuring amazing sights in every direction.
This is a place I’ve personally always wanted to visit, so even though I was supposed to be taking a break from work this December, when Jordan contacted me to capture his surprise engagement proposal there I knew I had to make it work. [ read more … ]
