Hansen and Sherlyn first met during the pandemic, and now they’re taking a tour around the USA for their first international trip together. First stop: the Bay Area, where we met up by the oceanside for their sunset pre-wedding photo shoot. It just so happens that it’s that time of year again when the fog is (mostly) gone, the sun is out, and my primary residence is Sutro Baths [ read more … ]

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!

Katie and Brian had to scale down their wedding significantly; instead of their original plan of having a big SF City Hall wedding with all of their guests physically in attendance, they ended up having a tiny backyard elopement with just a few guests, while everyone else watched the live stream and celebrated with them from afar.

But just as the pandemic didn’t get in the way of them getting married, it also didn’t get in the way of capturing some beautiful wedding photos at City Hall. [ read more … ]

Sometimes, you just have to go for it. We rescheduled Erica & Andrew’s pre-wedding shoot very, very last-minute because our original date was looking super rainy. Then on my drive over to the Russian Ridge Open Space Preserve, I was greeted by seemingly impenetrable fog… but in the ten minutes that it took Erica & Andrew to arrive, the fog started to roll out! I’m super glad we went for it because the results are fantastic! [ read more … ]

This photo shoot has been a loooooong time in the making! We first met with Scarlet & Anthony at the end of 2019 — back in the Before Times when it was still normal to meet people face-to-face — and together we happily talked about their May 2020 wedding day. Well, we all know what 2020 brought us 🙁 So we rescheduled to September, because surely a pandemic couldn’t possibly last an entire summer… right? [ read more … ]
