Amanda and Brandon met up with us for their engagement photo shoot in San Francisco by the ocean. Her long blue dress worked perfectly in the ocean breeze and the colorful sunset sky, but of course more important is Amanda & Brandon’s love for each other. And I loved that they were able to goof around with each other a bit too. They sure warmed up an otherwise cold San Francisco day!

This shoot was made a little more special by their German Shepherd, Diesel. [ read more … ]

Erin & Nick’s winter engagement session featured their adorable pup Mason. I just love every one of the photos, and especially the silhouette of him leading his parents into the sunset! Even though it was wintertime, it was a gorgeous day and everywhere was packed. But that didn’t slow us down at all, and it was like they had the space all to themselves. [ read more … ]

Baby Niles’s nursery is absolutely picture-perfect. Everything in his room is so cute and cohesive — letters, pictures, lots of elephants (Anna’s favorite animal), and their very protective puppy guarding baby Niles the whole time. [ read more … ]

Tom & Emily decided to have their engagement photos taken in our beautiful coastal town of Pacifica, where they both lived. We spent some time taking photos at Grey Whale Cove Beach and at Mori Point, where they often liked to take their dog out for casual hikes. Bella, a shepherd mix, reminded me a lot of my old German Shepherd: warm, fuzzy, loving… and pretty good at posing for the camera 🙂 [ read more … ]
