Sometimes, I get home from a shoot and absolutely can’t wait to look through all the photos… and then I can’t decide on my favorites because every last one of them is my favorite! I’m simply in love with Maria & Max’s San Francisco oceanside engagement shoot and I loved every minute we spent together. They’re such a wonderful couple and exactly like the photos show: lively, playful, and totally in sync with one another. [ read more … ]

Tracy & Darren are getting married in LA, but since this soon-to-be-bride is from San Francisco, we took a set of engagement photos for them here in the Bay Area. We hit a couple of the best spots around San Francisco, including the Palace of Fine Arts, Potrero Hill, and Baker Beach. [ read more … ]

I met up with Gabrielle & Adam a few days ago for their engagement session and I’m so excited to share some photos! They both enjoy grabbing a drink and chilling together, so to incorporate that into their photos we started off at the Virgin Hotel. The hotel is a a meticulously-decorated, perfectly classy setting for photos, and it actually just opened its doors a couple of months ago. (Thanks Virgin for letting us snap a few photos in your space!)

After that, we headed to Baker Beach to catch the sunset and some views of the waves and Golden Gate Bridge. [ read more … ]

It’s always great to have couples who don’t quite take themselves too seriously. Laura Beth & Andrew are a wonderful couple who just can’t stop smiling and laughing with each other. They’re cute and perfect together — and it’s the candid laughs and real interactions that I loved so much about this session. And we still got plenty of romantic portraits, like the ones you’ll see below 🙂 The golden sunset and textured skies certainly didn’t disappoint either! Take a look at some of the highlights from their engagement shoot!

One of the best parts about my job, second to getting to know so many wonderful couples and learn their stories, is visiting new places! Sycamore Grove Park isn’t even far from home, and if you were driving by you might think it’s just another park — but inside, it’s absolutely wonderful for photos! I’m thrilled I got to spend an afternoon at this beautiful park that Liz & Paul picked for their engagement photos. [ read more … ]
