Michael & Lauren’s story began back in 2018. They first met online, and after a very memorable first date that stretched for four hours (!), it became clear that something special was brewing. Since then, we’ve had the honor of documenting several of their big milestones: first, their proposal in the spring of 2022 up in the Marin Headlands, then their fall engagement photos at Mt Tam, and finally, their beautiful wedding at Viansa Sonoma this summer.

I think Erik wins the award for the most meticulously-planned and perfectly-executed proposal we’ve ever seen. There were just so many moving pieces: the friends who brought Sherrie along for the airplane ride, the airport where they landed, Sherrie’s boss who was in on the plan all along, and even yours truly, the photographers. Erik quietly worked it all out, rehearsing the flight path a few times and juggling multiple unplanned schedule changes, and the result was the sweetest and most perfect proposal. To be honest, we really didn’t know what to expect out of an “emergency landing” airport runway proposal, but Erik knocked this one out of the park! [ read more … ]
