These two are getting married in Spain but also wanted to represent where they created a life together. So we headed over to beautiful Land’s End for their engagement session. Summer in San Francisco is pretty cold and Karl the Fog always seems to make an appearance right when my sessions start – it never fails. So even though […]

Looking back on 2018, I feel so honored to have been a part of so many special celebrations. Thank you to all of my clients who trusted me to capture and witness such beautiful moments in their lives. I was able to photograph weddings at some new places and check them off of my bucket […]

Lands End is one of my favorite spots in San Francisco. The view is beautiful and the light – perfect! I have shot there many times, and every time I see something new. The recent San Francisco Engagement Session with Emily and James was no exception. They are the sweetest couple, and Lands End was […]

As a photographer you watch light a lot. I am always looking for that good light. There are two time of the day I really love to shoot. It when the sun is lowest in the sky. That happens to be later in the day and the other is early in the morning. When I […]

Being a California native, I think Big Sur is the crown jewel of our beautiful California coastline and is […]

To help them find the perfect location, I asked if there was a place that was important to them. They both laughed and said, “Bob’s Donuts.” Come to find out, Bob’s has […]

“What are we going to do on our third date?” I’m sure this is a question many newly-dating couples think about. But for Lauren and Nathan, the answer was easy…thanks to me! In January 2015, I was visiting New Orleans with my best friend. One night, we were hanging out with our awesome Airbnb hosts […]

I love a San Francisco Wedding. I’m lucky to work in such a beautiful city. When I talked to Hahnbi & Nahyun about their day, I was so excited to hear all about the details and get to know them better.  The first spot was atop Nob Hill; the Fairmont San Francisco is an architectural […]
