Jen & Mike | San Francisco Wedding Photography

The story of how Jen and Mike met would not be complete without all the stories of how Jen and Mike almost but did not meet: their mutual friend Tom could’ve introduced them but decided Jen wasn’t Mike’s type; when Tom threw a party, Jen attended, but Mike skipped it; and when Tom invited Jen to lunch with Mike, Jen didn’t manage to answer her phone. Finally, two years later, Jen and Mike finally found themselves in the same room at the same time at their friend Ryan’s birthday party. Mike seized the opportunity to capture Jen’s attention by doing a back flip in the middle of the apartment. Somehow, this worked, and the rest, as they say, is history!

Jen and Mike were wed in a beautiful ceremony overlooking the Golden Gate Bridge in San Francisco. We started the day at the Stanford Court Hotel in the middle of the city, and then headed over to the Presidio. See a little glimpse of the lovely day below.

The necklace was a gift from Mike that day.

We also got some portraits with the Golden Gate Bridge, before heading to their venue, the Observation Post in the Presidio.
