Aaron had a big surprise planned for Amy… actually, two of them! Last week, the pair made their way down the oceanside trails to Marshalls Beach and set down a picnic blanket to sit and relax together. After enjoying the ocean breeze for a few minutes, Aaron walked Amy over to the water for a perfect view of the Golden Gate Bridge, pulled out a big ring, and asked her to marry him. And then right on cue, Amy’s sister appeared on the beach to congratulate the newly-engaged couple! [ read more … ]

After dinner together on an unusually sunny August evening, Tyler brought his girlfriend Jasmine to the end of the Lands End Trail to watch the sunset. As they reached a cliffside viewpoint of the Golden Gate Bridge and the sea, Tyler started to recount how it was at this place that he first knew he loved her. After the initial surprise, Jasmine was lost for words (except for her very clear “yes!”), but no words were needed for the rest of this story… it was all cries of excitement and tears of happiness from that point on!

Annie and Kevin got married a few years ago, but they never got around to taking photos in San Francisco… so we set out to fix that last week! These two were a bunch of fun and full of giggles, like they had just gotten married yesterday. I loved capturing all of their little kisses and smiles, and the beautiful skies certainly didn’t hurt. Here are a few of my favorites from their shoot at a couple of my favorite spots in SF 🙂

Eugene and Gemma got engaged and married in 2020 at the beginning of the pandemic, and as a result, they didn’t get to take a set of photos back then 🙁 And now that they’re husband and wife and we’re all free to roam around the city again, they decided that it’s time! We took this opportunity to get them back into a set of wedding attire and a couple of more casual outfits, and we created a set of SF wedding portraits at some of the most classic and iconic locations around the city. A big belated congratulations to E&G on getting married and surviving the pandemic together!

During their trip to California (all the way from Canada!), Kody and Carlie had a lot on their itinerary, including a scenic roadtrip all along the the sunny California coast. But Kody had prepared something that would outshine everything else they’d do during their stay… and it was hidden right in his back pocket. [ read more … ]
