Josephine & Jonathan’s wedding was an amazing, memorable celebration that we enjoyed absolutely every moment of. Their day started off at the Palace Hotel, where J&J shared a poignant set of private vows in the room, just the two of them, and it set the tone for everything that followed. From there we headed to Golden Gate Park, where we got caught some warm sunshine for photos in the Shakespeare Garden, before heading over to their wedding at the California Academy of Sciences. We even got to roam the living roof for portraits, which we’ve never had access to before, so shooting here with the wind lifting Josephine’s veil and the round skylights dotting the hillside was both a surprise and a delight!

Josh and Katelyn’s wedding day was a beautiful culmination of their long journey together. They first met as high school freshmen in 2007, and 15 years (!!) after their first adventures together, Josh proposed in their San Francisco apartment in 2022. In his words, he “secretly looked at engagement rings, planned and plotted different options,” and decided to create a magical moment surrounded by hundreds of their photos hanging from their ceiling, capturing the essence of their relationship. We as photographers really appreciate how photos mean so much to them and were very excited to capture some great memories! [ read more … ]

It’s strange how some long wedding days can go by so quickly, and Jeffrey & Julie’s wedding was definitely one of those. We met up with them in the morning at Hayes Mansion, where the emotional tone for the rest of the day was quickly set with Julie’s reveal with her bridesmaids & bridesmen, followed by her very heartfelt speech thanking each of them for being a part of her journey over the years. J&J’s first look was a very touching one, and after that we lost count of how many times Jeffrey cried and laughed at the same time throughout the day. The mansion was a perfect place for all of this plus lots of portraits for everyone — both the beautiful interior and clean exterior are just so ideal for photos!

Though this first part of their wedding day was quiet and relaxed, it was a great lead-in to the ceremony & reception at The GlassHouse SJ, where the energy really picked up, especially during the reception which included a spectacularly-performed surprise lion dance as well as some pretty incredible dancing [ read more … ]

​​​Czarina & Darrell’s wedding day was a long one packed with many events, and it’s one we’re very excited to share. The morning started off with the couple getting ready at Hotel Via, followed by a first look at Pier 7 under the warm afternoon sun. The two had their church ceremony at the Mission Dolores Basilica, one of the most beautiful and certainly oldest buildings in San Francisco, and then their reception at The Pearl, with a quick stop for photos at Dolores Park in between.
