Jim & Lauren have a special spot in the city that they had been to many times before, and even aside from its sentimental value, this place is a true hidden gem of San Francisco. Tucked away at the edge of Russian Hill, it’s a neat, quiet park with a beautiful view of the city. [ read more … ]

Nancy and Alvin were my very last couple of the decade! We met up for their engagement photos at City Hall at the very end of 2019, and although it was packed tight with lots of couples getting married before the new year, we found some great empty spaces to shoot in. [ read more … ]

Kevin wanted to choose the perfect setting for his proposal, and he quietly teased out Maria’s choice of location in the weeks leading up to the big day. Eventually, he picked a spot in front of the Bay Bridge near Cupid’s Span for the perfect Embarcadero proposal. [ read more … ]

Bruce and Hannah are cute, lovey, and total goofballs. We felt like the two of us had a lot in common with them (mostly the goofy part), and I think it helped make for a perfect engagement shoot! We started off at Gott’s Roadside at the Ferry Building, as food is a big part of their lives and they often like to spend time with each other there. (Side note: the garlic fries there are sooooooo good!) We kept it super casual and had a lot of fun, and I love the way their silly personalities light up in these. [ read more … ]

Eric chose a unique and memorable location to propose: the rooftop of his apartment in Telegraph Hill. It was oddly-shaped with random obstacles and gaps with 30-foot drops scattered across the top, but that just made this shoot more of a fun challenge 🙂 And its perfect view — with the majestic National Shrine of St. Francis of Assisi serving as a backdrop in one direction, and the Transamerica Pyramid in another — couldn’t have looked better than it did under the golden sun that afternoon.

Upon arriving, Eric gave his well-rehearsed speech to Lauren, who was quite visibly overjoyed as you can see below. She said yes, of course! Congrats to both of you!
