It’s our little tradition to document Jenny and Kevin’s love story and to create a beautiful leather album every year. For this, our fifth shoot together, we opted to document a slice of their lives in their first home together, which we have lovingly dubbed the “Yauhaus” (after their last name, Yau). We started with…
Yali is quiet, genuine, caring, while Sriram is laid-back, more outgoing, and always able to make her laugh. When they met at work, they found balance and a place in each other’s hearts. I met these two on a sunny but windy-cold day in San Francisco for some engagement photos by the Legion of Honor…
Courtney and Nick are so down to earth and a joy to be around. We met up in San Francisco’s Golden Gate Park and roamed around, making stops in the Japanese Tea Garden, where they went on the day of Nick’s proposal, and around the Conservatory of Flowers as well. It was an incredibly foggy…
Julie and Jeremy’s proposal story, as told by them: Jeremy proposed to Julie exactly on their three year anniversary in front of the Golden Gate Bridge (this is where they first asked each other out!). Julie sleeps in on weekends, so Jeremy woke up early and frantically checked the weather all morning on public webcams…
It started with a fall when Deirdre and Damian first met. A hard fall. It’s best when Damian tells the story: Deirdre was interviewing for a developer position at a new company, dressed in heels and very long dress pants. Her heels got into a fight with her pants and she fell (face first) in…
Agnes and Z traveled all the way from Singapore and met me in California’s wine country for this super sweet engagement shoot. They met when they ended up in the same lab, Agnes as an undergraduate and Z as a research assistant. At first, they gave each other no thought, but over time, they slowly…
It was such an amazing experience to be part of this special proposal. Alex and Jessica first met at TAF, a summer camp that many of us have attended since we were kids, and they have been together almost ten years now. Because many of our TAF friends were going to Napa for The French…
“It’s a little different from the norm,” they told me, but it was such a unique and meaningful way to celebrate their wedding with their friends and family across the US. Fuko and Robert would be officially wed in San Francisco’s City Hall with their closest family. Then they would continue the celebration in Chicago,…
Theirs is a love story that spans several seas. They first met while traveling through South Africa and Namibia, Katja visited Anders in Norway, he moved to the Netherlands to be closer to her in Germany, and they then lived together in Norway before moving on to their new home in Vancouver, Canada. And true…
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…
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…
We drove an hour out of the city to this oasis at Mt. Tam for Caterina and John’s engagement session. They both love hiking and triathalon (in their free time from training to be doctors), so the beautiful trails of Mt. Tam hold a special place in their hearts. The light was amazing on this…
