It’s been super foggy lately, so we’re really glad Anna & Dana are an adventurous couple and willing to go up to Mt. Tam, where we could get up above the fog! We got here a bit before sunset, just in time to see a thick sea of fog down below, with a soft pink sunset at the horizon. [ read more … ]

Brooke’s family traveled across the country to Palo Alto for her graduation from Stanford (and just in time for Father’s Day too!), and they wanted to have some casual family photos taken outdoors with a beautiful natural backdrop.

I could tell how close they all are in each others’ lives, and how precious these moments are for them!
