I’m really glad that Genevieve & Boris decided to go somewhere a little different than our usual spots for their engagement session! We met up near Scoma’s in Sausalito for a few photos along the Bridgeway, against those pretty colorful houses up on the hill. It was President’s Day weekend so there must have been hundreds of people walking past us [ read more … ]

Cavallo Point and Twin Peaks made a great combination of locations for this engagement shoot. With a beautiful San Francisco skyline and Golden Gate Bridge behind us near the Presidio Yacht Club, and a twilight view looking down on a lit-up city at Twin Peaks, these backdrops were a perfect complement for each other.

Bryan had his proposal planned out long in advance — several months before the big day, he reserved the Point Bonita Lighthouse for a “private tour” for himself and his girlfriend Christen. [ read more … ]

Black Sands Beach is a serene, peaceful beach nestled at the base of the Marin Headlands just north of San Francisco. Despite its beautiful, fine sandy composition, its perfect position right at the inlet to the San Francisco Bay, and its great view of both the city and of nature, this beach is one of the quietest in the Bay Area. It’s a sizable beach, but has a relaxed, intimate feel because of how empty it usually is. I didn’t even know about this place until Spencer told me, and I’m very glad he did! [ read more … ]

Sam’s proposal was a very special one. Sure, the Sausalito Bridgeway promenade is a very picturesque spot, great for a romantic walk along the Bay, but it was also much more than that: decades ago, Sam’s dad proposed at the same spot! I really love it when our couples incorporate such meaningful and personal things like that 🙂 And Christina’s reaction was so cute when she realized we were there snapping photos of the proposal, which you can see in the photos below. She was so excited that her hands were still shaking even while we were doing portraits afterwards! Congrats guys!
