    Berkenesh & Norver | Mt. Tam Engagement Session

    Berkenesh and Norver had their hearts set on an engagement session in the sprawling hills of Mt. Tamalpais, which I always love. I usually photograph in Mt. Tam around sunset, but since they weren’t available that evening, we opted for a sunrise session instead! And wow, it was incredibly worth it. Though we were all…

    Tiffany & Tevis | The Highlands Estate Wedding Photography

    Tiffany and Tevis actually grew up on the same street in Palo Alto, attending the same elementary school. But because they were a year apart, they never met in California. In fact, they met on the opposite side of the earth in Kenya, where they now run a startup developing sustainable forestry in Africa. But…

    The Swiss Alps

    It’s time to head for the Alps! This was the main goal of our Switzerland trip: to walk around in nature and breathe in that salubrious mountain air. Admittedly I was imagining springtime when I planned the trip for mid April, but while it was springtime in the cities, it was actually still winter up…

  • Bern, Switzerland

    Bern, Switzerland

    We continue to day two of my Swiss adventures! From Lucern I took the train over to Bern. Yes, this is a tiny bit out of sequence since it makes a neater loop to go  Zurich – Lucern – Alps – Bern – Zurich, but due to some logistical constraints I decided to still visit…

  • Lucern, Switzerland

    Lucern, Switzerland

    Welcome to Switzerland! This whole visit was prompted by the fact that Icelandair bundles their flights so that a flight to Europe includes a stopover in Iceland for free– so I figured if I was going to Iceland I should really pick a destination to visit in Europe as well! I’d never been to Switzerland,…

They got waffles in Oakland together and the…
