It’s the best feeling when I’m at an engagement photo shoot and it feels like I’m just hanging out with a couple of friends and celebrating their love. (Some may call it third wheeling, but I call it a normal day at work 😛 ) Constance & Kevin decided to have their engagement session at Rodeo Beach, which was an awesome choice — I had such a fun time exploring the coastline with them.

August was a whirlwind of weddings for us, and Kanwal & Harshad’s Outdoor Art Club wedding was a wonderful way to kick it off. It was actually a multi-day event involving a fusion of Indian and Muslim traditions, and we had a blast capturing all the love and joy among our wonderful couple, their family, and all their friends and guests.

Last week, we met up with Kaila and Peter at two special spots for their engagement photos in Tiburon: the San Francisco Yacht Club for some photos in the marina and on the family boat, and at Old St. Hilary’s Church, which is a cute little chapel situated atop a beautiful grassy hill. Sailing has always been a big part of Kaila and her family, so it made a lot of sense to shoot at the yacht club. And now it’s something the two of them enjoy together 🙂 [ read more … ]

Michael and Sam brought along their dog Goose for their engagement shoot. He’s super cute (I couldn’t stop kneading the rolls on his neck…) and was so happy to get out and go on a hike with his parents! You can also tell in a lot of these photos that he’s the one running the show, haha. We were able to fit a lot of variety into two hours: starting from Slackers Hill for a great view of San Francisco and the sunny sky, then heading over to the Marin Headlands and ending at Rodeo Beach for sunset.

Derek and Natalia were already set to get married — they’re having a small ceremony in a few weeks — but Derek made sure his bride would get the proposal she deserves. Originally he wanted this to be at the nearby Hawk Hill, but as I waited there for them, the clouds rolled in; due to its high elevation, Hawk Hill poked right up into the low-lying clouds that day, obscuring the view. So I quickly texted Derek to go to plan B, and I hurried down the hill before they arrived. When they reached the lookout point, Derek brought her over to the Golden Gate Bridge overlook to pop the question. Natalia was happy beyond words, and I’m very excited to share a few photos of this perfect Battery Spencer surprise proposal!
