I hope the summer months have been treating everyone well! I can’t believe how fast 2019 is just flying by. Another year and another set of client anniversaries! I am going to be sharing (finally) new work from the last few years that I haven’t had the time to blog or post. We are in an Instagram age now but I still think there is value in having a blog so I will continue to update mine, though it is irregular. Marien and Patrick reached out to me via Instagram about documenting their engagement and wedding about a year prior! Marien is a nurse and Patrick is an establish choreographer and dancer. His group, the Kinjaz were participants on MTV’s show America’s Best Dance Crews! They made it to the very end of the show! Seeing how they interact with each other, it was obvious these two were in love and were a perfect match!
For their engagement session, we started off at the Deyong Museum in Golden Gate Park, and then made our way over to Potrero Hill for some skyline photos before finally ending off at the iconic golden gate bridge. This shoot was ambitious but we created some truly candid and real images for them! I can’t wait to share the images from their San Francisco wedding in another post. We even got to see a live dance performance from Patrick’s dance group!
New year, new blog post! If my blog projected real-life, I would no longer be photographing. But that is not the case! When I met Becki to hear about her wedding day, I knew that this experience was going to be one for the books! Becki & her fiancé Kevin are two of the nicest most down to earth people I have met! Kevin is a deputy sheriff and Becki is a Doctor of Physical Therapy. I should have seen it coming when it came time for their engagement shoot! They are adventurous and definitely not cookie cutter! So when they both told me they wanted to have their engagement photos done in Tahoe, their wish was my command! My colleague Barbara with Barbara Jacqueline Cinema joined us as she and her team will be handling the cinema for their wedding.
When we (Barbara and I) arrived in Tahoe, we spend the entire afternoon scouting locations for the following day. Quite honestly, it was a stressful period as we were not coming up with what we had envisioned for the following day. We always want the best for our couples and it’s always a big concern having the right location with adequate light, which we were not finding. We took a lunch break back at the hotel, did some hard research, and hit the road again with some places to check out. We were driving a long into the mountains and suddenly on the left, we hit absolute GOLD! The location we had been envisioning all along! It couldn’t have gotten us more excited!
And did we come home with some magical imagery and footage! It was such a fun weekend, and I think I speak for both of us when I say we CANNOT wait for their wedding this October! If it is half the fun & magic we had in Tahoe, it will be off-the-hook!

Jessica and Sammy were so much fun to work with! I first met Jessica when she worked at my dentist office as a hygienist. After a couple years she had mentioned she was engaged and that she was interested to using my studio for her wedding photography!
Of course I was excited to document their love and relationship with one another. We photographed their engagement session at a private winery in Lodi, California and we couldn’t have asked for a more beautiful evening. Here are a few of our favorites! Stay tuned for their wedding we recently photographed in June!

It was an early but beautiful morning in San Francisco while my assistant and I were playing tourist by the golden gate bridge as we awaited Mark and Jen’s arrival. Little did Mark’s soon-to-be fiance know that Mark had been in coordination with me and had planned to propose to her and have it captured on camera!
Some time went by while they were overlooking the Golden gate and talking with each other. Then just like that, Mark was on one knee and asked Jen to marry him! Of course she said yes! After some moments alone we took some photos around the location marked had chosen since it was special to them. It was a fun morning and I am glad we we’re able to capture those memories for you!

When I first met Jennifer & Colin, I knew they were going to be a couple for the books. They were one of the most outgoing, laid back couples I have ever worked with! For their engagement session, we started off at the San Francisco Giants stadium and then worked our way over to The Palace of Fine Arts, Chrissy Field and finished off at the Embarcadero. My team and I also had the pleasure of documenting their wedding day this past November which will come in a later blog post.
But until then, enjoy!

When my friend Michelle, who is a wedding photographer based out of San Diego, Ca called me to hand me one of her existing clients I was glad I was able to help her out! Her client was in San Francisco for the weekend and they wanted to do an engagement session last minute. Being that Michelle is pretty far and the couple was only going to be in the city for the weekend she had me do the shoot.
This couple made my job so easy! We started off at the Palace of Fine Arts and then headed into their neighborhood where Shawn lives. We then ended off at the Presidio. I am bummed I am already booked or I would be second shooting their wedding!
Shawn + Shalini, I wish you all the best! Have a great wedding!
