Kelly & Brendan’s The Highlands Estate Wedding
Monica & Nick’s San Francisco City Hall Civil Ceremony Photos
Before Monica and Nick held their big wedding celebration with all of their family & friends, they decided to quietly have a San Francisco City Hall civil ceremony to tie the knot in a private, intimate setting. I think the most challenging part of this for me was the height difference — I always felt like I was shooting the ceiling whenever I pointed my cameras at Monica and Nick! I loved the photos though. The grand interior architecture of City Hall was a perfect fit for the courtly air of the bride and groom, and we got some great shots of them here. Take a look below, and be sure to also check out our photos of their larger wedding!
