Engagement Session: Louriel and Michael

The Legion of Honor was the setting for Louriel and Michael's engagement session. What they didn't tell me is that they ordered up a perfectly sunny day topped off with the white puffy clouds. The day was absolutely amazing and made even better by how sweet and funny they both were!


Thanks for the wonderful time at one of my favorite museums in the city and next time I need perfect weather, I know who to call!

Kate and Matt's Engagement Session

Kate and Matt are getting married next month and I'm so excited! They are a couple who have plans to make their wedding uniquely theirs and I love that. I don't want to spoil the surprise but I'll give you a sneak peak into just how cute they are together from photos from their engagement session.

Being a wedding photographer, I love it when my clients have ideas that are soooo them! (And I have to admit, most of my brides are and that's why I love them!) Kate and Matt do a lot of hiking, especially in Edgewood Park. It is a beautiful park with some very nice trails so if you get the chance to go...do.



Kate and Matt were major troopers...climbing up on this fallen tree and being great sports!




There are so many beautiful spots, trees, flowers, and trails to see and explore in Edgewood Park. I particularly love this one!!!

James and Sophia Engagment Photos

When I spoke with James and Sophia about where they wanted their engagement photography session, they knew immediately. They wanted anywhere on the coast. And who could blame them? The coast of Northern California is beautiful, breathtaking, and sometimes a little cold. After having amazing weather on Saturday, the coast decided to be not so gracious on Sunday during our engagement photography session.

But James and Sophia were great troopers and decided to brave the cold weather anyway. Sophia even started out in this adorable dress and you would never know that it was absolutely bone chilling! She's a natural model!!!



After a wardrobe change...we continued photographing them. They are so cute and so in love, you can't help but be giddy around them.


Thankfully that wave did not get them wet...it barely missed! One of the things that I love doing with my brides is to collaborate on ideas. Sophia had this great one and it's how we ended the day!

Best Wishes James and Sophia!
