They met their senior year of high school, and they have been together for almost a decade since. Katie is incredibly thoughtful and selfeless, and Chris is perpetually happy and supportive. Katie is always the planner, while Chris likes to throw new things into the mix, which sometimes results in hilarious and wonderful (but stressful at…

5000 miles could not keep them apart. While they grew up in two very different places– Gemma in Ireland and Kevin in California– fate brought them together in the beautiful city of San Francisco. They met for a drink which turned into dinner and then one unbelievable adventure after another. A year and a day…

I love their feature of Michelle and David’s gorgeous Berkeley City Club wedding and all those pretty florals by Studio Choo.

These heirloom wedding albums are absolute treasures. I love the luxurious leathers, the thick, sturdy pages, and I absolutely love the attention to detail and custom design, with everything from the layout to the debossed names on the cover personalized to each couple. Below are some images from Michelle & David’s album.
Happy Anniversary, Jenny & Kevin! Today is the actual date that marks two years from their wedding. I love that we have an annual tradition of doing a photoshoot together. It’s been so much fun celebrating their relationship over the years and flexing our creativity muscles so that no two shoots are ever the same….
I absolutely love my new albums from RedTree. Below is a beautiful 8×8″ album in a lovely brown ‘pinecone’ leather. Having the names and date debossed on the front cover is always one of my favorite details. I’ve been busy creating these fine art books lately, and I’m excited to share more of these gems…
Pointe of View is a personal project I started at the end of 2011. I had just finished my wedding season, and as much as I love weddings (and I really do), I really wanted to step into something else. Something different. Something creatively challenging. I had done ballet briefly as a child, just long…
This post is very much overdue! Back in March, I attended Caroline Tran’s very first Propel photography workshop in Pasadena, California. I have long admired Caroline’s sweet, elegant style and had been her blogstalker for quite some time, so I jumped at the chance to connect with her face to face and learn from her….
I was very honored when my friend Shang asked me to do a photo session for her and her boyfriend. I was also incredibly nervous, because Shang is an amazing photographer herself and has been generously dispensing business and photography advice to me since the very beginning! How do you photograph the photographer? Well, we had…
Gemma and Kevin have been so fun to work with. Their warmth and sincerity are just so lovely to be around. They chose the Tiburon trail for their engagement photos– a place they used to frequent together– and it was the perfect setting. Romance surrounded by nature. Such sweetness.
