The weather couldn’t have been better for the day of Sarah and Adam’s engagement. As wishy washy as it has been, it’s finally getting better and on this day it happened to be perfect! We started at the Palace of Fine Arts and moved over to Baker Beach, both in San Francisco. This is why I love this city. You come across some […]

During the busy holiday season, it’s easy to get caught up in errands, cleaning for guests, and crowded stores. Jenna and Gabe’s wedding at the Berkeley Brazilian Room was a perfect reminder of what really matters: slowing down to appreciate love, laughter, and time with the people who mean the most.

Diana and Juan were married on April 21, 2012. Their Catholic ceremony took place at St. Isidore Church in Danville, California, followed by a reception at The Bridges Golf Club in San Ramon.

Jenna and Gabe are so fun, loving and such troopers! when we had their engagement session the weather was seriously like a storm… almost. Jenna had a smile on the whole time and no weather could dampen her spirits. We started at Fort Point and moved over to Lovers Lane.

It’s full of the kind of personal, playful touches that don’t show up in a typical venue tour: a Jenga tower guests signed instead of a guestbook, wine […]

Jeff and Jermelyn had a beautiful wedding ceremony at the San Francisco City Hall.  After the ceremony, they had a cozy dinner with friends and family in the French quarter at Cafe Bastille.  Jermelyn made a stunning bride and I was so honored to be able to witness their marriage.
