Half Moon Bay is just a short drive down Highway 1 from our home in Pacifica, and offers some really beautiful scenery and quiet spots that can’t be found in San Francisco. On one of our weekends off, Annie and I took a walk along the Half Moon Bay coastal trail near the Ritz-Carlton, and we thought to ourselves what a wonderful place it would be for a proposal… so we were really excited when Amar contacted us and said he liked it too!

Ryan & Mia made a day trip from Stockton to San Francisco one beautiful, sunny morning last weekend. Ryan came to propose to his lovely girlfriend, of course, while the unsuspecting Mia thought she was here for an innocuous work event. Ryan and his mom Lisa had put together a very well-done “Day on the Bay” flyer for a work cruise, departing from Pier 7, that they were to attend.

Once they arrived at the wooden pier, Ryan knelt down on one knee and showed her the ring while a small group of onlookers paused to cheer. Mia had the absolute cutest reaction ever — look at the excitement and joy not only on her face, but also expressed by her hands and feet! Congrats you two!

It’s not every day you hear a couple say “we met on Craigslist” when you ask them how they met, but it’s also not every day you meet this quirky and fun-loving couple, Lauren & Rob, for whom we had the pleasure of photographing for their engagement photos and on their wedding day at Purple Orchid Wine Country Resort & Spa.

After making the rounds with Lauren & Zach through the Presidio and shooting some of their save-the-date photos along the way, we sped across the Golden Gate Bridge to Sausalito to catch the sunset at Rodeo Beach. It’s their favorite beach for a getaway picnic and the view is just stunning! We had such a wonderful time with this beautiful couple and are so happy we had the chance to work with them. Join us in congratulating them on their upcoming wedding next year!

Julie and Quin are expecting their twins soon — a boy and a girl!! Does it get any better than that? I wish I were so blessed 😀 We strolled along the Linda Mar Beach trail right next to their home in our lovely city of Pacifica and spent the evening golden hour under pouring sunshine. It was an amazing afternoon and I love how these photos turned out! [ read more … ]
