Carmel Wedding Photography at Holly Farm | Meri & Mollie

I’ll never forget watching Meri & Mollie literally bounce with excitement on the altar as they tied the knot at Holly Farm in Carmel.  I love you both, and I loved photographing your wedding!  (Oh and how awesome is a cake made of cheese wheels?)

San Francisco Mission District Engagement Session | Orly & Zack

It’s important to Orly that she mix elements of her heritage in with her engagement session, and what better way than in San Francisco’s Mission District?  We visited the murals in Balmy Alley, then walked around to various stops, pausing wherever we found beautiful light.  Afterword we made a trip to the UCSF Med Center’s Rec Building in the SOMA area, and finished off underneath the cherry blossom trees.  A beautiful conclusion to an amazing day.

Orly & Zack, I can’t wait for your wedding!

San Francisco Mission District Engagement Photography | Michelle & Kyle

What’s better than an engagement session that begins with wine and a cheese flight at Mission Cheese in San Francisco’s Mission District?  Almost nothing.  I loved spending the evening with Michelle and Kyle, and I can’t wait for their wedding in June!

San Franciso Marriage Proposal Photography | Harika & Bhargava

Harika thought she was going for a fun little photo shoot with friends.  She was right, but also oh so wrong.  In fact, she didn’t even know her soon-to-be fiancé was even in town!  All her friends were in on it, so you can image the excitement as they stood on the sidelines waiting for what they knew was coming.

Congratulations Harika and Bhargava.  Next up, engagement photographs.  I can’t wait to be a part of them!
