Oscar’s story was that they were going to head up to NorCal for his birthday weekend… but in reality, he had more special plans in mind — much more special! On a nice calm evening, he brought his girlfriend Danielle to the Pacific cliffs with a beautiful (if slightly foggy) view of the Golden Gate Bridge, and took out a shiny surprise out of his pocket.

We had the most incredible time photographing Kristin and Conor’s wedding day. From their first look to the rumbling dance floor, it was a whirlwind of love, energy, and excitement that we are so happy to have witnessed.
