Michael & Sam’s Marin Engagement Photos

Michael and Sam brought along their dog Goose for their engagement shoot. He’s super cute (I couldn’t stop kneading the rolls on his neck…) and was so happy to get out and go on a hike with his parents! You can also tell in a lot of these photos that he’s the one running the show, haha. We were able to fit a lot of variety into two hours: starting from Slackers Hill for a great view of San Francisco and the sunny sky, then heading over to the Marin Headlands and ending at Rodeo Beach for sunset.

Nate & Katie’s Engagement Photos at Pigeon Point Lighthouse

Nate & Katie had quite the memorable engagement — they got engaged last fall, right on that day when the Bay Area skies turned apocalyptic orange due to the fires. Though that wasn’t Nate’s original plan, it certainly made for a very memorable day! Now, almost exactly half a pandemic later (we’ve started using that as a unit of time…) the four of us met up in Pescadero for their engagement photos at Pigeon Point Lighthouse. [ read more … ]
