I always love photographing surprise proposals, but this one was an especially fun treat, as the proposal was for my good friend Tiffany. She has long known that she wanted to marry Greg, and she has long said that she would want me there to photograph the proposal. Tiffany and I both travel a lot, so we actually share…
Victoria and Vaughn are an absolute delight to be around. Victoria radiates an infectious enthusiasm, and her expressions carry across entire fields, while Vaughn has the kindest smile with a touch of mischief in his eyes. They first met seven years ago at work and built a friendship over lunch chats and work projects where they talked about…
Christine and Yang met in a bar on a snowy night in Boston. After a few dances together, they exchanged numbers and the courtship began.

We were treated to the full gamut of Bay Area weather in the span of Tammy and Justin’s engagement shoot. We met at the beautiful Thomas Fogarty Winery atop a hill in Woodside, and a cloudy session gave way to full sunshine, clouds, simultaneous sun and fog, and finally, complete fog. Tammy’s radiant smile shined…

But mother nature had other plans when the forecasts all turned to rain. Of course, Christine and Scott didn’t let it stop them for one second….
