Say hello to Lauren and Kodie and their labradoodle Royce, whom everyone notes looks a whole lot like Kodie. Lauren and Kodie met back in their hometown of Charlottesville, Virginia, and Lauren eventually followed Kodie out to San Francisco after he got a job here. They just recently gained two housemates who are also an…
I first met Courtney and Nick just over five years ago when I photographed their engagement session in Golden Gate Park. I was so delighted to hear from them again and find out that they’re now expecting their first child! We got together for a new portrait session with the two of them and their…
Elizabeth and Derek first stepped in front of my camera for their engagement session three years ago, with a little cameo from Stella the golden retriever too. Then they had a beautiful wedding at the Berkeley City Club two years ago. And now, we’ve reunited to welcome the newest member of their family, baby George….
Say hello to the Lynch family! The last time we saw them was down in San Jose a year and a half ago, and goodness, the boys have gone through a growth spurt since. Also, they’ve welcomed their new black lab puppy to the family too. Her name is Pepper, she’s full of energy, and the whole…
The tradition continues! Every year, we celebrate Shau-ru & Ed’s wedding anniversary with a wonderful portrait session. It’s been a tradition for six years running. This year, they’re getting ready to welcome a new member to the family! Congratulations, Shau-ru & Ed! Can’t wait to see what the next year might hold. Anna Wu is a…
I absolutely adore this little family. Meet Lianne and Jeong, their two little boys who are 3.5 and 5 months old, and their beagle Sara. We met up on a beautiful Sunday morning for some family portraits over in Menlo Park. See some of my favorites below! Anna Wu is a…
Shirin and Eric first met at SantaCon five years ago (with her dressed as Ms. Gingerbread and he as Super Santa), so Christmas is one of their favorite times of year. For the proposal, Eric wanted to pay tribute to Shirin’s old tradition of creating fairytale books for her family, so he taught himself how…
I’m so thrilled to share the images from my holiday card sessions this year. In collaboration with Brown Fox Calligraphy, we created these lovely custom cards. Glimpse a couple of my favorite photos from each session below! Thank you to Jen & Christophe, the Bermudez family, and Tiffany and Mike for entrusting us with your holiday greetings…
I am absolutely honored that five years in, I still get to meet up with Shau-Ru and Ed for their anniversary portraits each December. This time, when we were thinking up locations, the Cypress Tree Tunnel in Point Reyes popped in mind, so we trekked up north and met up there just before sunset. See just a…
Elizabeth and Derek are a wonderful pair of old souls who share a love of rugby, architecture, old films, and their Golden Retriever Stella. I met up with them in the Oakland hills for their engagement session at Joaquin Miller Park. Despite an overcast day, we got to create some beautiful portraits lit up with personality. See…
This is one of my favorite traditions each December: photographing Shau-ru & Ed and their dog Ellie. We have a whole series of wonderful portrait sessions at this point. This year, for their fourth wedding anniversary, we headed to Baker Beach and let Ellie frolick in the sand (one of her favorite things to do) with the…
Victoria and Vaughn are the sweetest pair, completely at ease with each other. They initially met at work and became fast friends, but it took months of courtship on Vaughn’s part– and moving jobs to another company– before Victoria would date him. (She didn’t want to date someone she worked with.) Once Vaughn asked her to…
