I’ve been blessed to have been a witness to many of Shubhro and Sadhana’s milestones: from their surprise proposal and engagement photos, to their wedding ceremony at City Hall. I can hardly believe this all happened over five years ago! And two weeks ago, I was so happy to see them again for a Filoli Gardens maternity photo shoot to commemorate their first child 🙂 [ read more … ]

Audrey and Noah were technically already engaged — he had already proposed to her a few months ago, and she of course didn’t hesitate to say yes — but Audrey wanted to make their engagement an extra special one by surprising him back.

Kara was so excited she could hardly contain her jubilation, and Max was just relieved to have the weight of the surprise and anticipation finally off his shoulders, haha. Congrats to the happy couple, and check out a few photos below!

Back at the end of 2019 when the world was still going about business as usual, we met Zoe and Alex in Half Moon Bay for their engagement photos, which remain some of our absolute favorites. As fate would have it, the pandemic shut the entire country down shortly afterwards… but unlike many of our other couples, Zoe & Alex managed to plan their Oceano Hotel wedding around the pandemic [ read more … ]
