There are few places I love shooting more than the Marin side of San Francisco, so when I received the inquiry from Laura and Skyler asking about an engagement session up and down Highway 1, I couldn’t reply quick enough. Laura and Skyler live in Illinois, but as avid West Coast travelers, they consider California […]
Karen and Michael’s wedding felt like the perfect transition from summer to fall. The saturated yellows and magentas mixed with deep oranges and reds gave the day a feel of summer warmth and autumn coziness all at once. Karen and Michael went out of their way to make everyone — guests and vendors alike — feel […]
Angelica and Johnny got married in September and the wedding was a giant dance party from start to finish. They danced through their first look, they danced while walking back down the aisle after saying their vows, they danced into their formal introduction which then led to a dance-off between the two of them to […]
I photographed Ashley and Alex’s engagement session last fall and after seeing the effort she put into the details for just an hour long session, I was eager to see what magic she made with their wedding. Finally August came, and the day was just as beautiful as I expected. Vibrant summer florals, hand-painted table […]
This shoot came to life after Kelly — the owner of Park Victorian — and I first met in person and realized our mutual love for the less-traditional. The Park Victorian itself is a curation of modern and vintage, minimal and eclectic, and we wanted this shoot to complement that style. Most of all, we […]
The field we used for this session is one of my go-to locations. It’s a beautiful backdrop in every season and the oak trees make it easy to shoot in no matter the time of day. But on this particular evening, the light touched everything in the most crisp way and made the location feel […]
I may have fallen twice on our hike up Eagle mountain and I may still have a concerningly bruised butt from the second fall, but this session was WORTH. IT. We started off at Mia and Kevin’s dreamy family cabin, drinking wine and photographing them in every light-soaked corner. Then the two of them got […]
Angelica and Johnny agreed to meet me at sunrise at the top of Mount Tamalpais for their engagement session. As soon as we arrived, they danced and spun and laughed with each other with little direction from me. Watching them, it was obvious that my camera and the extraordinary setting were irrelevant; they are naturally […]
Alyssa + Vince’s engagement session was full of wind and chemistry and Karl the Fog and the lightest, happiest kind of love. We started at Golden Gate park for some casual shots around the DeYoung Museum and then finished at Crissy Field for a more dramatic scene against the Golden Gate. There are few things […]
Rebekah and Josh’s engagement session was initially planned for Tahoe but instead of dealing with the unpredictable snow, we decided to head the opposite direction and MAN I’m glad we did. We landed in the Marin headlands among hidden trails and pockets of coastal succulents, all while the sun set in the background. The two […]
