We first met with Christine and Dennis almost exactly a year before their Nella Terra Cellars wedding, and we instantly loved how they interacted and the way they described their story together. They had gotten engaged a year before that on a hike near the ice fields in Banff during golden hour, which sounds like a page right out of my bucket list! Christine admits she should have been suspicious since Dennis never suggests hiking, but perhaps it’s good to be caught off guard on occasions like this 🙂 [ read more … ]

Our first wedding of the year was just a few weeks ago, and we had the good fortune to spend it with this happiest, most down-to-earth couple. We’re excited to kick off our year and share some of the highlights now of Alicia & Brian’s Outdoor Art Club wedding. [ read more … ]

We’d been excitedly looking forward to Will & Sam’s wedding for over a year now. Ever since their proposal at the Palace of Fine Arts here in San Francisco and engagement session at UCLA where they first met (and I think that’s the farthest from home we’ve ever been for an engagement shoot!), we couldn’t have been more excited for their wedding day at The Club at Ruby Hill. This venue is one of our new favorites in the East Bay, and I think you’ll quickly see why when you scroll through their photos! [ read more … ]

Nancy & Xia have been together for many years and have known each other even longer, and they decided to make it official in front of their family & friends at their beautiful Thomas Fogarty Winery wedding last month. It was a super intimate event, officiated by their friend Irene and with just a few dozen guests in attendance. [ read more … ]

Monica & Julian’s Fairview Metropolitan wedding in Oakland was as beautiful as it was special. The day started off in Daly City where they got ready separately, then we drove over to Crown Memorial State Beach for their first look — which was perfect, be sure to check out the little squeeze 😀 — and some family and bridal party photos.

Their ceremony at Fairview Metropolitan was short and sweet, and I think captured the essence of their relationship together in a cute and entertaining way. [ read more … ]
