I have been photographing Allie and David for seven years now, for their engagement session, wedding, and their maternity session for little J. I was so delighted to photograph them again, this time as they are expeting baby #2! We enjoyed a very sunny morning at Filoli, wandering the extensive gardens that were in full…
One week after our wedding, we went right back to Reeve Wines for their members’ weekend. We originally weren’t sure we would attend since we were literally just there, but instead we decided to stay the night in Healdsburg and turn it into a mini honeymoon! It’s always such a lovely time sitting at the…
One of the great joys of our wedding celebrations was being able to stay for the whole weekend on site at the villa overlooking the venue. What a beautiful place to spend quality time with our friends and family! Here are some of the behind-the-scenes moments from my camera and phone from a truly wonderful…
Alex and I were wed in a small ceremony on a rainy day in December, but we continued the celebrations with a springtime wedding in wine country. From the setting to the guests to the weather, every last detail was absolutely wonderful. The location was our favorite winery, Reeve, in Healdsburg. From the very first…
I am so thrilled to have completed volume two of Annsa and Arvind’s custom linen photo albums for them. You can take a look back at volume one here and continue below to see the new book below! First, a classic linen cover with gold debossing — this has been edited for privacy, in reality the…
Parker is always ready to make anyone laugh, and when that someone is Amanda, the universe aligns, and all is right with the world. There is greater joy than Parker and Amanda laughing together. It has been an absolute delight to photograph these two. Their wedding day was plenty overcast with some sprinkles even coming…
Sharon and Andrew exude warmth and care for each other and for those around them, and their community also radiates that same love and care back at them. Though they had a large wedding, with 220 guests, many of whom were under the age of five, the whole celebration felt remarkably intimate. The entire day…
The impetus of so many of our trips around the country is Alex’s quest to watch a pro baseball game at every one of the 30 MLB stadiums. Surprisingly, he had never been to Chase Field in Phoenix, Arizona, despite it being relatively close to us here in California. But he had been to Scottsdale…
I’ve been to Arizona a couple of times, but this was my first visit to Saguaro National Park. We got lucky with some very comfortable weather and a stunning desert sunset. And the next day, as we drove from Tucson to Phoenix, we also got to visit a desert superbloom, as the springtime poppies had…
I first got to photograph Olivia and Alex’s engagement session last year, before they were wed in the fall North Carolina. This spring, they returned to the Bay Area for their West Coast wedding reception, a Chinese banquet at Harborview on the Embarcadero. Olivia’s mother Keilani was so kind to have coordinated everything with me…
It has been such a joy to work with Annsa and Arvind for the past few years. Despite having to postpone and postpone– and ultimately cancel– their 2020 wedding, Annsa and Arvind have been unceasingly gracious and wonderful to be with. I am so glad to still be able to document their love story, even…
I loved being part of James and Jonathan’s wedding at the Hangar1 Distillery in Alameda. I am thrilled to see the story of that beautiful day now perfectly captured in this heirloom wedding album. JJ and JC chose a green luxe linen and gold foil debossing for the cover, and they opted for the nice…
