Every Monday, I feature an image and backstory from my Pointe of View series. Just a couple days ago, I was on a mini vacation in Las Vegas. I have so many travels booked this year, but these couple months are truly packed with travel and weddings. It’s busy and wonderful. Below, one of my favorites from…
I absolutely love the way Caterina and John’s engagement guest book turned out. These books are offered to my engagement session clients– it’s the perfect way to bring in your engagement photos on your wedding day and to get a beautiful keepsake with all your guests’ well wishes nestled in the beautiful photo layouts. My…
Every Monday, I feature an image and backstory from my Pointe of View series. This morning, I am back in Chicago, Illinois, about to film a wedding with Seaglass Cinema. This is the perfect time to share a beautiful image from last fall when I was here photographing Joffrey School trainee Nardia Boodoo. I just love the…
Bridgette and Ryan first met in Michigan, where they worked together at a communications company. Their first date was at a friend’s show at a music hall in Detroit, and they have been together ever since. After several years living in Michigan, they decided to move to California, and San Francisco was the lucky city…
Every Monday, I feature an image and backstory from my Pointe of View series. In celebration of Taiwanese American Heritage Week, I wanted to share just one of my favorite images from our ballerina shoot in Taipei, Taiwan. When I visited Taiwan back in February, I had the opportunity to meet these two young ladies who are…
It was so wonderful to photograph Cami and Eric’s wedding in Seattle last summer, and it is so exciting to see their wedding come to life in their heirloom wedding album. I think Cami and Eric did a great job selecting this beautiful mosstone leather for their cover. It’s a beautiful neutral that fits perfectly…
What an honor it is to photograph the Gardner family year after year after year. This is the fourth time I’ve had the privilege, and the first time (officially) that I got to photograph them at their home in Ojai. What made this portrait session extra special was that it was a gift from Aaron’s father….
Every Monday, I feature an image and backstory from my Pointe of View series. On Friday, I had the privilege of attending opening night of the San Francisco Ballet’s Cinderella– a birthday gift from my friend Dan. It was a brand new production by Christopher Wheeldon, based on the Brothers Grimm version of the tale– a far darker version…
Roughly once a month, I introduce one of my favorite vendors in the industry– completely unpaid, just out of sheer love of working with them. This month, I am proud to feature the Berkeley City Club— one of my favorite wedding venues in the entire San Francisco Bay Area. Why do I love this place?…
It was so wonderful to spend some time with Alexis and Frank in a city that has been so meaningful to their relationship. These two met in their office– a unique, floating office– as they are both Navy officers and worked together on their first ship out of San Diego. Friendship led to dating, and…
Every Monday, I feature an image and backstory from my Pointe of View series. We started the day at 4am with hair and makeup and then took a cab at 6am to the famous Tidal Basin of D.C., encircled with its monuments and the beautiful Japanese cherry blossoms that grace the area with their fleeting pink puffs…
I had the pleasure of meeting Yijin in Washington, D.C. when I traveled there for my ballerina shoots. It was an incredibly hot day for springtime in D.C., but the blossom-lined streets made for a beautiful backdrop in the historic streets of Georgetown.
