Friends of this blog may remember Anika and Vijay from their adorable proposal, which I captured while hiding behind a couch, or from their epic wedding in India! Well, they’re back again for another round of photos. While their wedding in India was incredible, it wasn’t quite legally binding for California, so we got together…
Kevin reached out to me after finding my wedding work online. He and his family were visiting from Chicago, and they would seize the moment to capture some adorable family portraits with their 6-month-old boy. We walked a nice little loop around Stow Lake in Golden Gate Park, and it was a super cute session…
I met Grace and Andy at Crissy Field in San Francisco for their engagement session, and they also brought along their two fur-kids: Tina and Bailey. They dashed around rambunctiously and added extra spice to Grace’s beautiful, unstoppable laughs and Andy’s good-natured smiles as we adventured our way through to the end of the shoot…

Over Mother’s Day weekend, my friend Tiffany and I got to check out Heath Ceramics’ open studios event by participating in a workshop at the San Francisco store. We got to learn about their bud vases and try our hands at pouring one from a mold and also glazing one to keep. It was tons of fun…
They met over five years ago with a hearty dose of serendipity and the willingness to go the extra mile for each other, literally. She was living in Sacramento and he was in San Jose, two and a half hours away, but they met online, and he made the five-hour round trip journey to meet…
Standing at Land’s End, where San Francisco meets the Pacific Ocean, they braced themselves against the whipping of the wind. Holding each other close, they carved out their own little space together. I love these two and their gorgeous two-part engagement session. Can’t wait for the wedding later this year!

My friend Cynthia is an incredibly talented musician and all-around creative. We got together at Hotel Rex in San Francisco’s Union Square for some glamorous portraits to help promote her new jazz solo show.

They met on twitter before twitter was even popular. Both software developers, Jane and Kevin found their perfect matches in one another. They share a love of cartoons and comics, which was manifested in an Adventure Time-themed cake at their wedding. They also love their adopted cat, who willingly supervised the scene as they got…

Our destination was Arzak, a famous family-run restaurant owned by Juan-Mari Arzak and his daughter Elena. Arzak has three Michelin stars and has gained worldwide acclaim for its…
