Being avid hikers, Jeremy and Nicole took advantage of their trip to the Bay Area to find some new spots to explore. The Linda Mar Beach/Pacifica State Beach is one of my favorite spots around here, so I’m really glad Jeremy liked my suggestion! It’s a pretty easy trail which goes up along a cliff facing the Pacific Ocean and offers beautiful views of the beach and ocean down below. Jeremy led his future wife to an overlook at the edge of the cliff before dropping down on one knee, giving them a beautiful backdrop for the proposal. [ read more … ]

Flying in all the way from New York, Daven & Anisa visited our beautiful city of San Francisco for a weekend trip. After a long, relaxing walk along Baker Beach in the presence of calm, soothing waves and the ever-present Karl the Fog, the couple took a selfie and then turned towards the Golden Gate Bridge. While Anisa was still facing the bridge, Daven pulled out the ring and got down on one knee behind her. When she turned around, the surprise and joy on her face was priceless! [ read more … ]

The Palace of Fine Arts, an iconic San Francisco landmark and popular tourist attraction, has been a special spot and is a perennial favorite for many of our couples’ proposals and engagement photos. Its majestic architectural design and unique picturesque surroundings and backdrop makes it no surprise that couples flock here to make their pre-wedding moments more memorable.

Geoff and Rochelle were very special for us, as they were our first couple to actually get married under the dome. Rochelle had dreamed of having her wedding there, and we were so delighted at the opportunity since we had always wanted to photograph a wedding at the Palace of Fine Arts! We couldn’t be happier that we got to share this experience with such a wonderful couple. [ read more … ]

Tim wanted to make his San Francisco trip with his girlfriend Jackie extra special, so he brought along a little ? surprise! The pair took an early morning trip out to the Land’s End Labyrinth while it was totally empty and had a nice moment to themselves, while we quietly took some photos from a distance. Jackie’s response was super priceless and I’m sure climbing that last rocky slope was totally worth it for her 🙂 [ read more … ]

E & E’s surprise proposal was the works! He had hired Captain Larry (Just Dreaming Yacht) for a private cruise on the San Francisco Bay with them and six of their close friends. What an incredible way to propose! The afternoon was an extra fun one for us as well — we arrived a bit early to don crew uniforms, complete with nametags reading “Eric” and “Marie” which would be our identities for the first half of the trip until the surprise was revealed.
