One week after our wedding, we went right back to Reeve Wines for their members’ weekend. We originally weren’t sure we would attend since we were literally just there, but instead we decided to stay the night in Healdsburg and turn it into a mini honeymoon! It’s always such a lovely time sitting at the…
Irene and Martin have been on quite the life adventure in the last couple years. When they first booked me, it was for a multi-day photo session and City Hall wedding, but then life took over and family and personal circumstances meant they had to pivot from their City Hall plans. They were still wed,…
It is not every day that of Scorsese’s Goodfellas, or a nightclub called Bimbo’s gets mentioned in the context of a wedding, but then again this couple is no ordinary couple. She is a professional flamenco dancer, and he is a sixth generation San Franciscan whose family is basically Bay Area royalty. They fell madly in…
One of the great joys of our wedding celebrations was being able to stay for the whole weekend on site at the villa overlooking the venue. What a beautiful place to spend quality time with our friends and family! Here are some of the behind-the-scenes moments from my camera and phone from a truly wonderful…
Alex and I were wed in a small ceremony on a rainy day in December, but we continued the celebrations with a springtime wedding in wine country. From the setting to the guests to the weather, every last detail was absolutely wonderful. The location was our favorite winery, Reeve, in Healdsburg. From the very first…

Thanks to my lovely clients who invited me up to photograph their session at Sea Ranch, Alex and I made a whole weekend of it and enjoyed a wonderful road trip up the Sonoma and Mendocino coasts and Anderson Valley. In fact, it was much like our road trip just over a year before, when…
September in the Bay! This was also the month we went to Los Angeles and New York, and yet we still managed to pack so much in to the rest of the month too. Starting with the Office of Accountability’s monthly meeting. Hosted by Eileen, shortly before she moved into her new house! Kina Grannis,…
Nina and Blake first met eight years ago, and their casual friendship took several years to grow at its own slow pace, before they finally looked at each other six years in and thought, should we try dating each other? The answer was yes. Absolutely. Their foundation was built very slowly but very solidly, and…
It’s officially been a decade since I started photographing Joyce and Keven for their engagement session. So interesting to think how much life has changed for them since then (a marriage, completely new line of work, and two human beings who didn’t used to exist!). And as always, it’s an incredible honor to chronicle these…
Amanda and Susana have been together for a decade, and they have built a strong and supportive foundation for their lives together in that time. They chose to have a small ceremony and lunch reception at Oakland’s Terrace Room overlooking Lake Merritt, before having a second banquet wedding up in Seattle for family. A very…
