Meet this lovely couple, Roxanne and Ozzy! We’ve previously photographed military service members in uniform but this is our first time covering a session for a police officer — how exciting! We met Roxanne and Ozzy on Presidents Day for their save-the-date photos at Crissy Field and Baker Beach. Even though the area was covered in fog, we still got lots of great photos with them and their cute little Yorkie! Roxanne wanted to incorporate the police theme into their photos and the results are great. Enjoy the photos!

We are so lucky!! We’ve been fortunate enough to photograph a lot of Canadian couples recently 🙂 Love seeing our fellow Canadians here in the States! Ryan and Kelsi came down from Toronto for a California coast road trip from Los Angeles along the Pacific Coast Highway, with their final stop in San Francisco. Ryan had been planning to ask the big question for a while now and I’m sure he had a hard time holding it all in throughout their trip! I can still remember how shaky Kelsi’s voice was as it was a complete surprise for her. I know you guys enjoyed your trip, and congratulations again!!

Paul & Mariana have been living in the Bay Area for a few months for work. Their family is heading back to Canada in the spring so they wanted a family session in front of the iconic Golden Gate Bridge. Such a beautiful family, and don’t you just love their outfits?! The funny thing is that the kids’ outfits stayed clean for only one photo, then they rushed to the water and started to have fun — kids will be kids!! I loved their energy and the bond between the kids and their parents, and I sure enjoyed capturing their memories here in California!

Christian proposed to Daena at the end of the pier at the Municipal Wharf in Santa Cruz and of course she said YES!! Before the exciting moment happened, we followed them around the boardwalk like two sneaky paparazzi!

Christian and Daena just moved to LA a few months ago, and lived in the Peninsula area before that. Christian picked the wharf because of their personal history here. He prepared a two-day “scavenger hunt” for Daena that included some little stories and clues to different spots in the area, led her to some of the boardwalk amusement park rides, and finally, took her to the wharf where he popped the question. Isn’t that sweet?!! He even hand folded all the clues into three different shapes! We ended this perfect proposal session with a killer sunset. Congrats Christian and Daena!!

Kari and Cameron said “I do” in front of their family and friends at Maverick’s Surf Break located in this lovely town called Princeton-by-the-Sea. Their first look was a very sweet one and we’re so glad we were able to document the deep love between them. Kari is a really cool bride! She galloped her way to the wedding ceremony on her horse!
