Silvia & James | Palo Alto Wedding Photography
It all started with a bit of silly bickering over what should have been a very easy fact for two Harvard grads to agree upon.

Deion’s Birthday | San Francisco Family Photography
Prepare yourselves for cuteness overload! I was invited to photograph little Deion’s second birthday party a couple weeks ago, and I had a great time wandering around with all the little toddlers.

Letterpress Stationery | Behind the Scenes
I have long coveted the beautiful look of letterpress. The paper has a beautiful, textured impression that can be felt by the fingertips. It looks so special and precious amidst our shiny, mass-distribution digital world. Letterpress is an old mechanical process involving giant finnicky old printing presses and plenty of manual labor (yes, you actually…

On a sunny day in June, they were married in a beautiful celebration with just the right amount of elegance and romance befitting their royal titles. The day comprised an array of beautiful settings in Geyserville, Santa Rosa, and Healdsburg,…
