Cynthia & Nathan’s Wedding | Julia Morgan Ballroom | San Francisco Wedding Photography
We began the day in a little oasis of calmness at the Omni Hotel of San Francisco. Cynthia was not nervous or anxious; she was ready. We entered the beautiful Merchant’s Exchange building across the street and took the elevators up to the Julia Morgan Ballroom on the 15th floor. Up in the bridal suite,…

Hilary & Gabe’s Sample Album | Kiss Wedding Albums
I just adopted a new product for my clients– a new type of wedding album. You might remember the original Laguna albums— and those are still available– but I have now added KISS albums to the mix.

Fuji Instax 210 | Tomales Bay Oysters
It tastes like the ocean. We nodded our heads as Margaret said it. We slurped the slimy little lumps from their shells, taking in a dollop of homemade cocktail sauce and an occasional bit of shell or sprinkling of sand with it. It’s a magical thing of cognitive dissonance to look at these unattractive little…

Those of you who have been following me for a while know that I also have a wedding videography business named Seaglass Cinema. We are just starting out but are so very excited about the work that we are doing. Videography is truly a beautiful medium for storytelling, and we love capturing our couples on…

The warm air wrapped around me as I walked down the street in Virginia Highlands and headed out in the beautiful Atlanta neighborhood to take some photographs– on film. Here are a few of my images on Kodak Portra 400, with a couple more black and white frames from the previous roll as well. Love…
