Elle and Justin’s engagement session at Calafia Beach felt VERY them. They’re both surfers, they love being outside, and the beach has been part of their relationship since the very beginning. So naturally, we had to end this one completely soaked.     These two actually met while working together as dentists and quickly realized […]

Jenn and Jesse wanted their San Francisco Chinatown engagement photos to feel more like a Hong Kong pre-wedding shoot than a traditional engagement session. The reference was very In the Mood for Love (IKYKY), with Wong Kar Wai’s cinematic mix of romance, color, movement, and a little bit of grit. This was easily one of […]

So… Brianna and Lucas might actually be the definition of Invisible String Theory. Their whole relationship feels like one giant “WAIT, WHAT?!” moment after another. These two met four years ago at a wedding at Casa Bella in Sunol, where Brianna’s cousin was marrying Lucas’ best friend. Lucas was a groomsman, Brianna was there celebrating […]

There’s just something about Mt. Tam that feels like you’re walking through a dream. Maybe it’s the way the fog rolls in like a slow dance, or how the light turns everything gold right before the sun dips into the clouds. Either way, it was the perfect place to meet up with Annie and Sam […]

Here is a sweet little love story in two parts: vineyard and town, told the way Bea and Paul live it. They eloped during Covid, so this wasn’t quite wedding photos, not exactly engagement photos, just the celebration they never got to have in Healdsburg. Their beginning fits right in here, they met working in […]

Jiajia and Kevin’s sunrise engagement session at Griffith Observatory felt like the perfect snapshot of their life in LA. The city was still quiet, the light was soft and glowy, and the whole morning had this calm energy that made it so easy for them to just be themselves. “We’re both transplants to LA and […]

Eva and Stefan’s story kicked off in the most down-to-earth way — grabbing pastries at Palio’s bakery at UCSF. He rolled in straight from work in his scrubs, and she was already there waiting. Nothing fancy, just good conversation and flaky pastries — the kind of first date that just feels right. Fast forward to […]

You know what we love? A couple that leans into their own kind of magic. Just like this chic duo who brought their timeless style to Hayes Mansion in San Jose for their engagement session. With its grand architecture and Mediterranean Revival charm, the mansion was the perfect backdrop for their lo-fi film vibes. Think […]

We LOVE the story of how Raechel and Kenny met. Who hasn’t ever been in an awkward situation in a bar… but Kenny saved the day!! Read their story: “Kenny and I met through a chance encounter during a night out at Open Bar, a total dive in Pacific Beach. I had texted one of […]

Vickie and Rayner are a true beach-loving couple. They are getting married on the coast this fall and we had to soak up the beautiful springtime weather at Crystal Cove State Park this month with them just to get ready for all the sand and sun we’ll be celebrating with them this year!
