You might remember Jennifer and Adam from their breathtaking engagement session at Windy Hill. I've been looking forward to their wedding at Quadrus Conference Center in Menlo Park ever since. Jennifer had told me beforehand that she wanted it to be “mellow,” and she and Adam managed to pull off a sweet and chill wedding while still incorporating gorgeous decorations (including florals from SF flower mart arranged by the bride’s mom!), delicious food (I lowkey wanted the kids' meal chicken tenders and fries), and a poppin dance floor with participants of all ages!

I recently had the immense pleasure of photographing Sarah and Mark's intimate wedding at the Caves at Wente Vineyards in Livermore, CA. You may remember these two from their engagement session in the Sunol Wilderness a few months back. I had a BLAST running around the fields with them (like literally running - it was humid and we were all sweating by the end) so I was so excited to see them again for their wedding!
Read MoreSan Francisco Engagement Photographer | Emily + Josh
Emily is one of my dearest (and most stylish) friends, so when she asked me to shoot her and Josh's engagement session in San Francisco I was immediately hyped! In typical Emily fashion, she put together a gorgeous Powerpoint vision board of her ideal engagement session - a combination of the Sunset neighborhood where she and Josh currently live and the beautiful Legion of Honor museum. I loved that their session reflected places and images that were special to their relationship - their SF home turf for the past few years as well as the elegant, inspirational aesthetic of the Legion of Honor.

It was a sunny afternoon, but the wind was picking up. The Huynhs were bundled up in puffy jackets and warm coats. Both Elyse and Miriam were understandably reluctant to shed their cozy outer layers. Their mom, Lia, knew just what to do: "I'll take off my jacket too! We'll run back and forth and then we'll get warm!" Oldest sister Elyse agreed, and soon the whole family was chasing each other around the park, jumping and giggling and hugging. Nothing like a four person race to get your body moving!
Read MoreSan Francisco Engagement Photographer | Nancy + Hsiang
From the moment I met with Nancy and Hsiang in San Francisco's Golden Gate Park, I could tell that these two adored each other. It was the holding hands, the little giggles, the quick stolen kisses as they whispered and hugged and laughed - all the ingredients for the sweetest engagement session! Nancy looked gorgeous, with her hair and makeup done by the talented Jackie Su Artistry, Hsiang was the perfect mix of casual and cool, and the two were color coordinated (but not matchy-matchy!) down to Hsiang's shoelaces!
Read MoreSunol Wilderness Engagement Photographer | Sarah + Mark
I loved every minute of my time with Sarah and Mark. We met up for their engagement session at Sunol Wilderness, which they've been to several times but was new to me. Well, I'm so glad Sarah suggested it because was absolutely gorgeous! They were super prepared with a bag full of comfy walking shoes to change into between spots, and even though the weather was a bit humid and sticky, these two lovebirds laughed and played their way through it, making it super easy for me to capture it in these photos!
