Tina & Keith | Pacifica Family Photographer

Meet Aurelia, the most adorable little baby girl with the cutest curly hair and chubbiest round cheeks! I had the pleasure of photographing Tina and Keith’s little family, and I enjoyed spending every moment with them under this beautiful sunset. Aurelia is almost 11 months old now, and she’s already starting to walk! She also loves to pull on Mama’s hair and play with those sparkly earrings. Aside from being a great mom, I’m told that Tina is also an exceptional baker, and we’re looking forward to tasting one of her cakes at a wedding we’ll be photographing next year — what a small world!

Michael & Katie | San Francisco Embarcadero Pier Surprise Wedding Proposal

On a weekday morning about a week ago, the two walked along the Embarcadero onto Pier 7. About halfway down the pier, Mike popped the big question, and we were so lucky to have been witnesses to this amazing proposal. I could feel Katie just bursting with joy as she literally jumped up and down shouting “YES!!!” and hugged her fiance. Meanwhile, Mike presented a cool and collected demeanor, but inside, I could tell he was incredibly excited — he didn’t even hear her say yes 🙂 [ read more … ]
