Purbasa & Nava | San Francisco Potrero Hill & Embarcadero Engagement Photos

Purbasa & Nava first met in 2014, not long after she had moved to the SF Bay Area from the midwest. They went on their first date at the Punchline comedy club, and for six months, developed their relationship and enjoyed their time together in the Bay Area — stargazing at Ed Levine County Park, traveling, trying new restaurants, and cooking together. Although Purbasa had to move back to the midwest for work, they kept their long-distance relationship strong. (Further proof that long-distance can work!) [ read more … ]

Lauren & Zach | Sausalito Rodeo Beach Engagement Session

After making the rounds with Lauren & Zach through the Presidio and shooting some of their save-the-date photos along the way, we sped across the Golden Gate Bridge to Sausalito to catch the sunset at Rodeo Beach. It’s their favorite beach for a getaway picnic and the view is just stunning! We had such a wonderful time with this beautiful couple and are so happy we had the chance to work with them. Join us in congratulating them on their upcoming wedding next year!

Liz & Chris | Pacifica State Beach Engagement Photos

Liz and Chris originally planned on having their photos taken at Ravenswood Historic Site in Livermore, but due to their early closing hours we changed our location to Pacifica State Beach. And I’m so glad we did because we got REALLY lucky that day — I’ve never seen Pacifica State Beach this empty before, as we were literally the only three people there that got to enjoy the gorgeous sunset that day! We got so many beautiful shots that I have to share with you 🙂 [ read more … ]

Check out these beautiful portraits of Sarah and Rob at the Legion of Honor and Sutro Baths. I really like the contrast between their outfits and the environment! These two are so in love, and I enjoyed every minute of photographing them. Can’t wait for their wedding later this year 🙂

Sue & Bryan | Uvas Canyon County Park Engagement Photos

Uvas Canyon County Park holds a special meaning to Sue and Bryan: he had proposed to her at the top of the hill, and they’ll be getting married at the park this upcoming spring. So last week, we decided to do a venue walk-through and shoot their engagement photos at this extremely memorable place of theirs! I love how adventurous Sue and Bryan were 😀 It had been raining for a few days so the water in the creek was pretty high, and some paths were blocked by the water, but they didn’t mind sitting on the wet logs or climbing up on the big rocks so that we could get the best angles. The photos at the end, of course, were well worth the effort! David and I cannot wait to be back in a few months to capture their big day!
