What a view, and what a lovely couple! Tommy proposed to Jiahui at Battery Spencer, where the view from the northern end of the Golden Gate Bridge was simply stunning. Tommy had EVERYTHING planned out meticulously weeks before the proposal! Not only did he visit several possible proposal locations the morning before, he actually visited them each twice… without arousing suspicion! On the morning-of, the couple arrived just as the fog was rolling out, giving us a clear view of the beautiful bridge. As you’ll see in the photos below, Tommy even made a book of memories to show Jiahui, and the last page told her to turn around — to find him surprising her with the ring. This was a very sweet proposal and mini engagement photo session, and congratulations to Tommy & Jiahui!

We had the pleasure to photograph the 7th anniversary for Stephanie and Jon! Although the city and the Golden Gate bridge were shrouded by thick fog, it created a romantic feel for all of their images. For the entire session, all I saw through my lens was peace and love — please enjoy their photos.

Dave proposed to Gretchen this past Saturday at Baker Beach!!! We were thrilled to be a part of this special moment 🙂

We sneakily followed them from the parking lot to the beach after making eye contact with Dave to let him know that we were ready. As soon as I sensed the big moment coming, I flung off my flip-flops and ran to a good vantage point. From that second on, our shutters worked NON-STOP! Every second was so emotional and precious that we just couldn’t get enough. And OMG that ring… is to die for! Good job Dave! And congratulations you two!!

Ed contacted us a month ago from Michigan telling us he’s going to propose to his love, Jenna, at the beautiful Palace of Fine Arts in San Francisco. David and I were so excited that we immediately took a trip to the city just to find the ideal spot for Ed to pop the question. It was a complete surprise for Jenna and the whole photo session was extremely emotional! They were so full of joy that we didn’t have to pose them at all for the entire session. Everything was perfect on the day of, with the clouds arriving just in time to be a perfect backdrop for the Golden Gate Bridge portraits.

After we wished them well, we came back to get just a few more candid shots. Check them out at the end of this post!
