What a view, and what a lovely couple! Tommy proposed to Jiahui at Battery Spencer, where the view from the northern end of the Golden Gate Bridge was simply stunning. Tommy had EVERYTHING planned out meticulously weeks before the proposal! Not only did he visit several possible proposal locations the morning before, he actually visited them each twice… without arousing suspicion! On the morning-of, the couple arrived just as the fog was rolling out, giving us a clear view of the beautiful bridge. As you’ll see in the photos below, Tommy even made a book of memories to show Jiahui, and the last page told her to turn around — to find him surprising her with the ring. This was a very sweet proposal and mini engagement photo session, and congratulations to Tommy & Jiahui!

Dante must be one of the most organized and best prepared grooms-to-be ever! He had every little detail meticulously planned out, and somehow even managed to sneakily text us a “hi,” without Jade noticing, to let us know that he had arrived. We followed the couple around like paparazzi and then caught him popping the question at just the right place. Congrats Dante & Jade!

This is a special session for us. We were originally contacted by Anu’s sister to give Dhanesh and Anu a “save-the-date session” because this lovely couple is getting married this December in India. An hour before the session we got a call from Anu’s sister telling us there was a last-minute change of plan — Dhanesh was going to surprise Anu with a ring! We were sooo excited and rerouted to get this couple some roses 🙂 We told Anu for the first set of photos we wanted them to stand back to back with their eyes closed, and when Anu turned around and found out what was really going on, she was in complete shock. Love every single photo of her priceless facial expressions — let these photos speak for themselves…

Congratulations on your upcoming wedding Dhanesh and Anu! And thank you Tanu for making all these happen!

Abrar and Sarah came all the way from Toronto to visit this beautiful city, and Annie was excited to meet some fellow Canadians and to shoot this great moment for them! What touched us the most was the thought Abrar put into planning this moment, and also the ring — mined in Ontario and cut in Saskatchewan, representing their respective home provinces.

Dave proposed to Gretchen this past Saturday at Baker Beach!!! We were thrilled to be a part of this special moment 🙂

We sneakily followed them from the parking lot to the beach after making eye contact with Dave to let him know that we were ready. As soon as I sensed the big moment coming, I flung off my flip-flops and ran to a good vantage point. From that second on, our shutters worked NON-STOP! Every second was so emotional and precious that we just couldn’t get enough. And OMG that ring… is to die for! Good job Dave! And congratulations you two!!
