Eugene & Gemma’s SF Wedding Portraits

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!

When they arrived at this beautiful spot in front of the rotunda, Meg got down on one knee and finally had her chance to return the favor. [ read more … ]

Oliver & Kiersten’s Lands End Lookout Surprise Proposal

We absolutely adore the story and thought behind Oliver and Kiersten’s surprise proposal. She had mentioned to him in the past that she wanted it to happen somewhere private, away from people. After considering several locations, Oliver decided on the Lands End Lookout largely for this reason, but also because it’s just a great spot in general, with a scenic view of the California coastline and the Golden Gate Bridge off in the distance.
